Crosley Radio is an audio electronic manufacturing company headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky. The current CEO is Bo LeMastus. It is a modern incarnation of the original Crosley Corporation which existed from 1921 to 1956. Modern Marketing Concepts resurrected the Crosley name after the original brand was discontinued by parent company AVCO in 1956, due to declining sales. The modern Crosley first marketed turntables in 1992. Today, Crosley is one of the country's leading marketers of turntables, as well as radios and jukeboxes.
In 2017, Crosley introduced the 'Vinyl Rocket' – not only the first vinyl jukebox in its catalog, but also the "world's only vinyl jukebox in current production". The machine holds up to 70 seven-inch records, and can play both A and B sides thanks to what the company calls a “unique rotating vinyl mechanism” for a total of 140 possible selections.[1] "Crosley's jukeboxes combine analog audio and 21st century digital technology features", according to the company.
