About Guckenheimer Sour Kraut Band
A humorous musical group of amateur musicians living in the San Francisco, California, area who played a repertoire of polkas and light classical music while adopting a persona of mild confusion and wearing self-created uniforms once described as rejects from the Franco-Prussian War. Although all were business professionals, the group joined Local 6 of the American Federation of Musicians and became "professional musicians" when they were invited by San Francisco Records to make its first record album, "Oom-Pah-Pah In Hi-Fi" (1956). Although the group played for laughs, all its members were quite adequate musicians, some of them very good. The sound was authentic enough RCA Victor signed the group to record a second album, "Sour Kraut In Hi Fi" . Their best known record album for RCA Victor Records was "Music For Non-Thinkers" (1958).
