Rocket 88

"You may have heard of jalopies, You heard the noise they make, Let me introduce you to my Rocket 88!"

These are the opening lyrics to a hymn of praise to the joys of the Oldsmobile "Rocket 88" automobile introduced in 1949. More significantly the song, which was recorded around 1951 and attributed to Jackie Brenston and the Delta Cats, was nominated as the first true Rock & Roll record by the American Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Sound Leisure has christened its first 'Silver Age' jukebox the 'Rocket 88' to recapture the sights and sounds of this vibrant era. The Rocket 88 sits firmly in this genre with its style, detailing and truly vintage looks! The Rocket 88 features Sound Leisure's excellent 80 CD mechanism and a 300 watt 2-channel stereo amp drives the 5 way speakers to produce powerful yet crisp audio response. With remote control operation, coin mechanism fitted as standard and an optional iPod dock there is nothing vintage about the performance of the Rocket 88!
