Del Rubio triplets - Definition and Overview

The Del Rubio Triplets were a variety/musical act who rose to notoriety in the 1980s due mostly to their campy style of dress and their goofy interpretations of standards and songs of the era. Their biggest "hit" was an acoustic-guitar cover version of the song "Whip It" by Devo. They made various television appearances wearing bouffant hair-dos and gaudy blue eyeshadow. They often appeared scantily clad (usually showing off their legs) despite the fact that they were in their sixties at the time. They are often remembered for their contribution of "Winter Wonderland" to the Pee Wee's Playhouse Christmas special.
