About 15 years ago, a client of mine told me that he had an old jukebox that he had in his basement in Iowa for a long time. He was now in Texas. He wanted to sell the jukebox for $200. I looked at it and bought it. Took it home and it didn't work very well. That jukebox sat in my living room for years until I could find someone to fix it. Well, I finally found Steve Brunson. He really didn't want to work on it, but I took it to him anyway. He mainly fixed video games and pinball machines. His told me as I left it, don't call me I'll call you when I get it fixed. Well he had the jukebox over two years before he finally got it fixed. It was the last jukebox that he worked on.
My jukebox is a 1962 Seeburg, but the 1961 and 1963 versions looked the same. Look at this youtube video to get a picture of what my jukebox looks like:

My mom always played music for us kids and I think we all love music. None of us can sing worth a hoot but we sure like to listen to music, especially the music mom played for us growing up.
My favorite song on my jukebox is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ulyd6Ro9fZw
