Roulette’s Joey Dee, who’s been twisting up a nation-wide sales storm with his smash “Peppermint Twist” single, swings freely to the music pouring forth from the new 1962 Wurlitzer Model 2600 juke box which is being introduced to operators across the U.S. this week. The youngster’s single smash, Roulette reports, has already topped the million mark and his album “Doin’ The Twist At The Peppermint Lounge” is also one of the nation’s best selling LP’s. Roulette has just issued a new Dee LP, the sound track from the Paramount flick “Hey, Let’s Twist.” Joey is scheduled to make a European tour in March of this year. Out 1 Week ....

48 Cash Box—January 20, 1961 a

Editorial As long as the juke box remains a commercial in- strument providing selective music for a cross- section of tastes in popular records, operators of these machines would do well to keep abreast of cur- rent trends in popular music. While there has been no radical change in the public’s taste occurring overnight, the gradual The Growing changes, and there have been several, are the changes to take note of. Importance Of The commercial life of a pop record today is much shorter than it once was. The operator there- fore has less time in which to make money from a Proper Programming record. Since time is of the essence, the sooner an operator recognizes play potential the greater are his chances of earning income for a longer period of time from this same disc. In the case of pop records —new releases every week—the best source of infor- mation is from the record reviews. The Top 100 is another source of information and should he read with a peeled eye. Early hits can many times be spot- ted before they reach the top of the chart and are on the way down. The Juke Box Programming Guide, another feature which appears in this publication each week is a special help to the operator since the list includes top sellers from the juke box field only. Recently introduced, this feature has met with vast acceptance by the nation’s operators.

There is a growing interest in jazz today that can mean bigger collections for the operator who uses this type music to his advantage. This jazz popular- ity has been confirmed by increased sales in jazz re- cordings, the success of jazz concerts, and the in- crease in the number of artists. While this music has always attracted a devoted audience, it has been limited in numbers. This is not the case today, how- ever. Jazz is developing a larger market than ever before. The juke box should look to this music for

additional income since it will sell in more locations than ever before.

Adult music—so-called as opposed to the standard rock ’n’ roll release—is making great strides via sev- eral channels. LP sales continue to climb, special 33- packs for juke boxes with 33-45 speeds are gaining more acceptance with ops as locations are exposed to this music, and recent news from radio stations of changes in programming policy from Top 40 to Mood Music, or Sweet Music as it is referred to— mixture of mood, show tune and top album selec- tions, are all signs of change. A major metropolitan station in New York is expected to revise its pro- gram to a mood music style after a long reign as a hot Top 40 broadcaster. Finally, record firms issuing records especially for the operator have advised that this program has met with acceptance. Material here is generally that of past hits, and new recordings of old favorites. Juke boxes are natural outlets for this music. These are but several of the changes that have taken place recently in the musical tastes of the pub- lic. Nothing drastic but they are changes just the same. They represent what the public will pay to hear. And that should be the uppermost thought in the minds of juke box operators.
