Funny how old stuff pops back up... It wasn't actually even my joke, but
Claus Kucher's. For lots of other instruments, such as the Ariston disc
organette or Regina disc music boxes, "DJ" is still just as applicable.

P.S.: Not really the best of side notes, but for those who knew him,
my dad has passed away at age 84.
