Doot-Doot
Doot-Doot is the debut studio album by Freur and was released in 1983.[3] The cassette version of the album included four extra tracks. The lead single, Doot-Doot, charted at 59 on the UK Singles Chart.
CD release
The album was unavailable on CD until the 1993 reissue by Oglio Records in the United States.
