Jean-Yves Labat (aka M. Frog and M. Frog Labat,) referred to as "an experimental musician living in Woodstock," was Todd Rundgren's
synthesist on the first Utopia album. M. Frog, his first solo release, came out on Albert Grossman's Bearsville label in 1973. The weird cover of
M. Frog is multicolored polar graph paper, supposedly a new way Labat had of writing music for the synth.
