UNIVERSAL RECORDING CORP
In 1965, Tufano and Poulos were joined in The Pulsations by two members of The Centuries, bass player Nick Fortuna & guitarist Carl Giammarese. The Pulsations name was retained until the group auditioned for a spot on the "All Time Hits" variety show on local powerhouse television station. producers wanted them to have a more British-sounding name, & a security guard suggested The Buckinghams.
Following his success in the Buckinghams, Tufano was part of the singer/songwriting duo Tufano and Giammarese, who recorded three albums with Lou Adler's custom label, Ode Records. The duo toured in support of the albums, including a rather rambunctious tour with Cheech & Chong. John Poulos served as the group's manager.
Appearing as guest vocalist, Tufano went on to co-write with composer and musician Tom Scott. Using a song composed by Scott and Jeff Barry, Tufano and Mindy Sterling performed the original title/theme song "Us" for the initial four episodes of the TV series Family Ties. After 10 episodes, their version was replaced by one performed by Johnny Mathis and Deniece Williams, and the song was retitled "Without Us".
As an actor, voiceover artist and sometimes stuntman, Tufano has appeared in theater productions in Los Angeles and has worked in film, television, radio and commercials.
Back on the road, Tufano joined Olivia Newton-John on one of her hugely successful tours, and was noted for his duets with her, including "Suddenly," and "You're the One that I Want." The duets were featured on Newton-John's HBO Special, which aired in January 1983.
Dennis Tufano also composed music and performed with Bernie Taupin, Elton John's lyricist, on Taupin's album He Who Rides the Tiger. Subsequently, for Taupin's group, the Farm Dogs, Tufano teamed again with the lyricist to co-write, co-produce and perform on the Farm Dogs' album Last Stand in Open Country.
Tufano was also one of the founding members of an improvisational voice-ensemble called the LA.MadDogs. In 1992, this group of actors began performing in hundreds of movies and numerous television shows. They have produced & performed seven "live" radio dramas, three of which Tufano directed, for KMPC Radio Theater in L.A.
Tufano produced, directed and shot a documentary in Chicago, Major Hall: Therapy Tuesday. He taped a performance for the PBS music series My Generation – The '60s, which first aired in March 2008, and was a part of the award-winning PBS-DVD series. An expanded version of the show aired on PBS in September 2008.
Tufano performed a classic Chicago rock concert with The Cryan' Shames in the summer of 2008, & appeared with Marty Grebb & Bruce Conte outside Manila in the Philippines in late fall 2008. Tufano continues to perform with his tribute to Bobby Darin As Long As I'm Singing the Music of Bobby Darin & he makes appearances with his classic rock show. He maintains a full concert schedule for most of each year, performing with various oldies artists & bands.
