  1. The first jukebox was an automatic phonograph produced in 1927 by Rowe International, then known as AMI

    The term "juke box" came into use in the United States in the 1930s, derived either from African-American slang "jook" meaning "dance" or from a name given to it by critics who said it would encourage criminal behavior, this came from the fake family name Juke.


  2. Who invented the jukebox? -- Eris Allen, Charlotte
