The Frog Prince (album)

The Frog Prince
Soundtrack album by Various Artists
Released 1985
Label Island Visual Arts

The Frog Prince is the title of the soundtrack album to the British motion picture of the same name, directed by Brian Gilbert and released in 1985.

In 1985 Island Visual Arts released a soundtrack album on LP (ISTA 10) and cassette (ISCA 10). Spectrum Music released on August 28, 1995 a CD (551099-2) featuring 16 tracks (distributed by PolyGram International). Though most titles were composed by Enya, only two of them ("The Frog Prince" and "Dreams") were performed by her. These two were not used in the film and thus did not appear on the original release on Island. Predating her work on her album Enya, (later re-released in 1992 as "The Celts"), by a year, these are two of Enya's earliest solo recordings. (Two instrumental compostions released in 1983 on a local cassette called "Touch Travel" were earlier in 1983. Statement excludes her non-solo work with Clannad).

The album also includes performances of standards such as "Sweet Georgia Brown" and "Georgia on my Mind". Enya is not involved in these recordings.
