Where Legend Began is the third studio album by British band English Dogs. It is probably the band's most successful album and the one that is most heavily influenced by thrash metal. It was released on the Under One Flag label late in 1986. A re-release ties "Trauma" and "The Eye of Shamahn" together as one song.
