  Colonel Les Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The band released two live recordings in 2001, "Live Frogs Set 1" and "Live Frogs Set 2".
"Set 2" is a live cover of the entire Pink Floyd album, "Animals".
This band had much the same genesis as the Frog Brigade; Formed to play at the Bonnaroo Festival of that year, it has since gone on the road, and recordings have become subsequent live albums.

 LES CLAYPOOL'S FROG BRIGADE: Live Frogs - Set Two (Prawn Song)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Live Frogs - Set Two is the latest release from Les Claypool's Frog Brigade, the recent solo project that the Primus frontman has been working on for the last year or so.
This time, as promised at the end of Set One (released back in April), the band serves up "more Pink Floyd than any human being should ever withstand." What the crowd didn't know was that they were about to witness the band's classic 1977 album, Animals, performed in its entirety.
The Frogs improvise a bit here and there, but in general, the performance is faithful to the original album (as opposed to the extended versions Pink Floyd played in concert), with just a bit of Les' trademark quirkiness thrown in.

 The insanely weird yet talented antics of the Frog Brigade
Live Frogs Set 1 was recorded live in last October at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco.
The 70-minute set consists entirely of cover songs: three by Sausage, two by Les Claypool and the Holy Mackerel, King Crimson's "Thela Gun Ginjeet" and Pink Floyd's "Shine On You Crazy Diamond"easily the most accessible song on the album.
Live Frog Set 1 is an amazing display of musical interplay between very good musicians performing off-the-wall music.

 Rough Edge: Les Claypool's Frog Brigade CD Reviews
Les Claypool and his band of frogs return for another live outing but this time with an interesting twist: "Live Frogs - Set 2" is the band performing Pink Floyd's classic album "Animals" live in its entirety.
Frog Brigade doesn't have the rich, over-the-top, full-orchestra sound that Pink Floyd manage (even on an album as relatively stripped down as "Animals").
This live CD was recorded at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco on October 8 and 9, 2000.

 AMZ - August, 2001 - Stella
Recorded live last summer in San Francisco's Great American Music Hall, Live Frogs Volume 1 is an amazing assortment of precision chaos ranging from the delicate accuracy of a prog rock masterpiece to flat-out thrashin' guitar, thumpin' bass, squealin' sax and frenetic drumming...
This is live remember, so there aren't any of the barking sound effects and stuff like that, but still it's a rendition that oozes respect for the original and puts to bed any concerns I had about this album to start with.
The outro, "Pigs on the Wing part 2" ushers the end of a magical evening for the folks lucky enough to be in the house that night.

While "Set 1" contains versions of originals and covers, "Set 2" is a complete performance of the Pink Floyd classic album, "Animals".

Les Claypool's Frog Brigade - Live Frogs Set 2
The Brigade have been playing lots of club type gigs and have released two live albums from those appearances.
The biggest difference between this album and the original (beside this one's being live) is probably Claypool's roaring bass lines, which cut through the mix with much more power than the original.

 Amazon.com: Live Frogs: Set 1: Music: Colonel Les Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigade   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Live Frogs, Set 1 is a tremendous jam album, giving equal amounts of time to every musician to screw around and just play whatever the hell they want for a few minutes.
The live version for Running The Guantlet is also superior to the studio version (anyone seeing a trend here?), featuring a lot of cool soloing from everyone, and fantastic drum work which will probably go unnoticed by the majority.
But Live Frogs Set 1 still has the best selection of the Frog Brigade's music on it, and is a good place for newcomers to start.

His band of the moment, Col. Les Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigade, just dropped its second live release of the year, Live Frogs - Set 2; the last disc, Set 1 -- featuring tunes from past Claypool endeavors as Sausage, Holy Mackerel and Primus plus a handful of covers -- was released in April.
Set 2, however, is a quite different kind of live album.
This would be a standout set of music on a bootleg tape or CD.

Live Frogs - Set 2, which he recently finished mixing, was recorded live last Fall at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco, and comprises the band's rendition of Pink Floyd's "Animals," from start to finish.
Live Frogs - Set 2 will be released this summer.
The Frog Brigade, who the San Francisco Chronicle dubbed "one of the most bizarre outfits to insinuate itself onto the rock-improv circuit," features original Primus/Sausage guitarist Todd Huth, Skerik (Critters Buggin', Tuatara) on saxophone, Jay Lane (Rat Dog/Sausage) on drums, Jeff Chimenti (Rat Dog) on keyboards, and local San Francisco guitarist, Eenor.

 Les Claypool's Frog Brigade CD review on AudioRevolution.com
The studio version of Animals is an amazing performance and recording that refers back to a time when performers produced complete albums with creative themes more like a feature film or a good novel than records built around singles specifically designed for a Spike Jonze video.
Les and the Frog Brigade take on covering one of rock's greatest recorded performances the way a great orchestra would prepare for Mahler’s Eighth.
Les and the Frog Brigade crank it out, driving the entire performance, but really go off for the fourth track, "Dogs." The intensity of the performance, with its fantastic bass line, is awesome.

Live Frogs: Set 1 ~ Colonel Les Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigade
But Live Frogs--Set 2, recorded at the same two-night stint in San Francisco as the first set, is a much different beast than the inventive jam-band noodlings of its predecessor.
Although Frog Brigade's made-for-TV version of the bleak anthropomorphic classic lacks the subtle orchestration of the original, they do make up for it in sheer zealousness and invention.

This Frog Brigade album, “Live Frogs Set 2,” is actually a live recording of them performing Pink Floyd’s “Animals.” It’s very intersting.
Apparently, “Animals” was the first Pink Floyd album that Les ever heard, and he was totally moved by it, and has always wanted to perform it, but never had the right instrumentation.

Claypool's idiosyncratic singing and trebly, bullish bass dominate the group's attack on Frizzle Fry, which reprises five songs from the live record.
Cleaner sound and extra production touches (a few guitar overdubs, some neat vocal trickery) also enhance the abrasive kinetics of the songs.
Meanwhile, Claypool gives good wordplay — lively metaphor-hopping laced with prickly social complaint — in his stream-of-consciousness stoner's blues "Spegetti Western" and "Harold of the Rocks" and the droll protest of "Too Many Puppies" and "Pudding Time."

 Les Claypool : Live Frogs: Set 2 - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
If it takes serious chutzpa to play a legendary band's classic album live in its entirety, what type of cojones are required to record said performance and release it on your own label?
That's precisely what the Flying Frogs' frontman Les Claypool has done with Live Frogs: Set 2, paying homage to Pink Floyd's dazzling (but underrated) 1977 conceptual epic, Animals.
And although purists may bristle at the mere thought, it's actually not half-bad.

After a decade spent fruitlessly tweaking the nose of alt-rock with tunes such as 1995’s hit “Wynona’s Big Brown Beaver,” Primus bassist-frontman Les Claypool moves to the jam-band scene with his six-man Frog Brigade.
Released only a few months after Live FrogsSet 1, recorded in San Francisco last October, Set 2 features a faithful rendition of Pink Floyd’s Animals recorded at the same gig.
Claypool, perversely, has long dreamed of doing the classic album in its entirety, and the Frogs pull it off with impressive skill and obvious affection.
