Suzie Cappetta (died 2007) was an American pop musician. She was the writer of the top 40 hit "Dave Hull The Hullabalooer" in 1965, a song about Los Angeles radio personality Dave Hull. She was a member of the group, The Scuzzies and later worked in The Harrison & Tyler Show act.〔Bill Martinez Live (Dave Hull: April 10, 2013 )〕〔Dead Rock Stars Club (2007 January to June )〕 She had done work with Jimmy Ellis.〔All Music (Suzie Cappetta Credits )〕 ==Background== Suzie Capetta and her younger brothers, Michael and Robert, got their start in the music industry while growing up in Redondo Beach, California in the 1960s. At the age of 15, Suzie wrote a song about a local Los Angeles, California disc jockey "Dave Hull The Hullabalooer" which became a regional hit when she, her two brothers, and two cousins recorded the song in the winter of 1964. The recording was chosen by Casey Kasem as a KRLA "DJ Pick To Hit". Casey's prediction was correct when the song made the Top 40 charts in Los Angeles on March 7, 1965.〔''KRLA Beat: L.A.'s first rock-and-roll newspaper'' 12.01.10 (We're not much on fancy words... )〕〔Las Solanas Consulting (KRLA 1110 AM Los Angeles, California Week: 03/01/65 )〕〔Las Solanas Consulting (KRLA TEEN - TOPPERS, TOP SIXTY TUNE - DEX )〕 The Quintet was dubbed "The Scuzzies" by Dave Hull himself when he first aired the song on his radio show. Suzie also wrote and recorded, with the help of her brothers, several jingles for Los Angeles radio station KRLA. Among those was a jingle the Scuzzies recorded promoting Baskin-Robbins' new "Scuzzy" ice cream flavor combination. As the Scuzzies, they made television appearances on "9th Street West" with Sam Riddle in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California and "TV-8 Dancetime" with Bob Hower in San Diego, California. They were featured in Bob Eubanks' "Cinnamon Cinder" and Casey Kasem's Clubs. One of the highlights for the Scuzzies in 1965 was when they became the opening act for "Sonny & Cher" at the Grand Opening of "Jamaica West Jr." in Torrance, California. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Suzie Cappetta」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
