conrad & the hurricane strings / conrad & the hurricanes

Conrad & The Hurricanes, or Conrad & The Hurricane Strings recorded a single at Frank Zappa's Studio Z.

from the "Paul Buff presents the PAL and Original Sound studio archives, vol.2" liner notes by Greg Russo:
"Pal associate Dave Aerni first came by the studio in late 1962 when his management client The Tornadoes wanted a different sound. The Tornadoes scored with their first single "Bustin' Surfboards," but their follow-up, the two-part single "The Gremmie," did not do well. The Tornadoes' output at Pal will be covered throughout this series on other volumes.
Aerni had four record labels going at once: Aertaun (The Tornadoes' label), Daani, Daytone and Ador. Volume 2 kicks off with the Daytone release "Hurricane" by Conrad And The Hurricane Strings. It was produced by Curry (Frank Zappa) and Irvin (Aerni). This track from January 1964 was sampled by Frank Zappa on his album "Lumpy Gravy." It is a classic of the surf genre."

from the "Paul Buff presents the PAL and Original Sound studio archives, vol.3" liner notes by Greg Russo:
"As a sideline to his Pal activities, Dave Aerni used the pseudonym Jack Irvin when producing tracks for his Daytone label. Frank Zappa also had a pseudonym - Curry - when he co-produced these Daytone releases. The A-side of Conrad And The Hurricane Strings' sole Daytone release, "Hurricane," was on Volume 2. This volume includes the record's B-side, "Sweet Love." Both sides of the record were written by rhythm guitarist Ed Sigarlaki."

from "Dave Aerni Presents The Best Of The Aertaun, Daani, Ador & Daytone Labels" liner notes by Greg Russo:
"The next two releases involved Aerni and Zappa working together at Pal Studios. Conrad And The Hurricane Strings’ “Hurricane”/ “Sweet Love” and The Cordells’ “Happy Time”/ “I Love How You Love Me” were both released in January 1964. The Conrad single appeared on Daytone, while the Cordells single turned up on Aerni’s Ador label. “Hurricane,” reissued a few months later on Era, was sampled by Zappa as part of his album “Lumpy Gravy.”"
