Cuca is a Wisconsin midwest based label. The Tornados comprising Gordy Hastreiter (guitar); Denny Hastreiter (bass guitar); Bob Olsen (sax/guitar); Teddy Vernick (guitar), and Dan Peterson (drums) got together to perform at 'sock hops' in Woodruff, Wisconsin in 1959 and underwent several line-up changes before eventually disbanding in 1965.
They made their debut on Cuca with the wild double-sides 'Scalping Party' c/w '7-0-7' in June 1962.
"We played, for a lot of private groups like the Mars Candy Co. and Johnson's Wax. They all had these big estates up here, " Denny Hastreiter told Gary E Myers. "As a result we had a lot of good bookings down in Chicago and places like that."
According to Myers, Peterson later became a band instructor in New London while Bob Olson went on to conduct the Omaha Philharmonic. The single has been issued with Scalping Party found on the CD "Elemental Instrumentals" and 7-0-7 found on the CD "Wisconsin Rocks vol. 4".
Stolzer Endpreis damals mit USD 101,- !
