Jukebox

Post by FarSide »

Just set it on an date and let it stay there and it will just keep on playing different songs of that era.

It's sort of a "Jukebox Time Machine" of music. Each of the years below connects to the best 20 hits of that year via a Jukebox.

Click on a year, wait a few seconds, and a Jukebox will appear showing you 20 hits from that year to select from.

I love that!
The first song on 1940 my daughter (20) said "We dance to that all the time". So I switched to 1958 and she said "And that!" (She goes to Lindy hop and swing clubs). Me, I can't dance to anything but I love the songs.

I used to teach swing, rock n' roll and jive. So I also found my feet tapping away at many of the songs. How much of today's modern music will still be played in 50 or 60 years?

Oh that's a great find thanks FS. I have a small Juke Box in my living room, love it in the dark when all the lights are on, looks really cool.
