[Jukebox-list] Another haunted jukebox, Years Ago...

[S.R. Boland]

I remember that Night Gallery episode very well.  A
"haunting" tune.

>From what I understand, "If You Leave Me Tonight I'll
Cry" actually became a No. 1 country hit because of
the popularity of that TV show.

That would be a great 45 to have in one's jukebox.

Two questions come to mind, though:

What kind of jukebox is in the episode?

And whatever became of Jerry Wallace?
