Im Forum hatten wir bereits einige TORNADOS. Hier nun eine Fünf-Mann-Gruppe aus Philadelphia, welche am 22.12.1958 einen Platz 26-Notierung mit der Single „Philadelphia U.S.A. / Magic Record“ in den Billboard-Charts hatte.
Die Zeitschrift Billboard schrieb unter der Überschrift „WHIRLWIND RISE FOR NU TORNADOS“ in ihrer Ausgabe vom 24.11.1958 folgendes über die Gruppe:
Five young Philadelphians, who went to high school with one another and have been singing as a group ever since make up the Nu Tornados. The boys are Phil Dale, Tommy Dell, Mike Perna, Louie Mann and Eddie Dono. Dono is the leader of the quintet, which has been together professionally for a year. The five have appeared in night clubs from St. Paul to Boston. Recently they were approached by Al Scalise and Bill Borelli to record “Philadelphia U.S.A.” The disk snapped up by Carlton Records. The rest is history. The Nu Tornados have been seen nationally via the Dick Clark Show and are scheduled on December 3 and January 3. They carry two banjo musicians with them whenever they perform. It’s home to Philadelphia for them this Saturday, when they’re scheduled to appear during the half in the Army-Navy football game.
