The band was the creation of Bill Thompson, for the Arizona kids' television show 'Wallace and Ladmo'.Pat McMahon portrayed 'Hub Kapp', with exaggerated 'Wolfman' style eyebrows. Despite being a total 'put on', the music industry took them seriously, and the group eventually performed on 'The Steve Allen Show' and secured a Capitol Records contract. Their first single, 'Work, Work' outsold the Beatles for a time in the Arizona area.
