The Toledo Free Press did an interesting article on some of the music in this episode written and performed by a local, E. J. Wells.

Not to show my age, but I can remember 5 songs for a quarter in a lot of juke boxes.......

I have an old table top juke box controller in storage from a restaurant that I designed a sound system for many years ago. I think this thing is from the late '70's or early '80's and, if I recall correctly, songs were 5 for a quarter on this one.
