Background
The band achieved some success with its first single, "Il ballo di Peppe", that was launched by the radio-program Alto Gradimento. In 1973 the band gained more success with the song "Anima mia", then they achieved a series of commercial hits until the early eighties. After a difficult period the band resurfaced in 1997, with a new lineup, thanks to the RAI TV-show Anima mia, whose success lead to the rediscovery of their eponymous song and band; from then Cugini produced a series of albums, containing both re-arranged versions of their earlier hits as well as new songs.
