    Juke Box Music

    Hey,
    Many of you know that recently I sold my boxed set of Tex Willers. Made a good amount of money off of them, and for a good reason - I just bought a vintage 1964 Wurlitzer Jukebox in perfect working condition. Full of vintage records as well - Beatles, Beach Boys, Elvis, etc.
    I'm picking it up next week and then the fun begins. Plan on keeping a lot of the records in the box, but the real fun is choosing my own. So I figured I'd open it up to you all as well to help me choose the music for the machine.
    However, some rules:
    1) Must be available on a 45.
    2) Must list both the A side and B side (a bit of googling will be needed). This will help to make the choice in cases of ties
    3) Must be real juke box music, not just OK music
    4) No slow songs - only kick butt Juke Box toons.

    So have at it - all suggestions welcome. At some point in the future I will list the final choices.

    Ok,

    How about Queen "We Will Rock You" and "We Are the Champions"?

    Monster Mash by Bobby "Boris" Pickett and the Crypt Kickers Garpax Records 1962.

    Side B Monster's Mash Party.

    Was reissued by Parrot records in 1973.
    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

    The Association --- "Along Comes Mary"

    Dr Hook --------- "Sylvia's Mother"

    IMO, for a '64 Wurlitzer forget about 70's crap
