Music is spiritual
"Super Jukebox" is owned and operated by Joe Laurendeau a former Weekend Disc Jockey for a popular Oldies Station. Joe produced and hosted his own LIVE radio program for almost three years and have recently expanded to internet broadcasting. Joe has been listening to radio since pre-school being the son of the late Louie Laurendeau who played LIVE broadcasts on radio in the 1930's-40's with Country Music Hall Of Fame Greats Grandpa Jones & Bradley Kincaid the "Kentucky Mountain Boy". Louie played many string instruments and was best known for being "The Master Of The Steel Guitar" as he was a close friend of Eddie Alkire, the inventor of the Ten String Lap Steel Guitar known as the EHARP.
Joe's dad could listen to any song and quickly play a Steel Guitar Instrumental version of hits by the Beatles, The String Alongs, Santo & Johnny & Les Paul to name a few. Louie Laurendeau was an accomplished Country Music Steel Guitar Player and he enjoyed playing Hawaiian Steel Guitar Music even more. Louie would take young Joe along with him on weekends when he played steel guitar at weddings in the Southern New England area in such bands as "Brownie & His Rythm Ramblers" in the 60's and "The Twilighters" in the 70's.
Joe's mother has always been a music lover and has raised Joe on a mix of Country, Pop, Classic Rock and even Polkas. As Joe was a teenager in the 70's he grew to enjoy Hard Rock and even Disco music. The 80's were a slight variation of the 70's with One Hit Wonders & New Wave Hits. Today's songs are very popular among teens-30 age group.
"Super Jukebox" is here to serve all of your dance party requests. Over the years we have taken our guests away from the stress of everyday Disc Jockeys and loud mouth radio personalities and created a relaxing and fun filled dance floor environment. We believe everyone deserves to request a song and have it played. However some songs need to be turned down because of offensive language or subject matter. We also reserve the right to refuse to play a song if the dance floor is occupied and the requested song is not considered a dance favorite. We will play that request later in the party when the dance is winding down.
