- Dueling Shows: The Nutty Squirrels Presents aired first, then The Alvin Show came out a year later.
- Follow the Leader:
- They were one of the many imitators of Alvin and the Chipmunks; they are probably the best remembered of them all.
- The Nutty Squirrels Sing A Hard Day's Night and Other Smashes was one of the metric ton of albums that were released to cash in on the success of The Beatles and other British Invasion bands.
- Keep Circulating the Tapes:
- The master tapes for their Hanover album were lost in transit when Steve Allen moved to Los Angeles in the 1960's, which means that a proper reissue likely won't happen soon.
- Only one episode of the Present series, "Tiger Trouble", is known to exist. It has been uploaded to YouTube
. The rest is presumably lost.
- One-Hit Wonder: They are mostly remembered for the two-part single "Uh! Oh!" — Part 1 charted at #45 on Billboard and Part 2 at #19 (also making the R&B chart at #9).
