ipdb.notes
IPDB Shown here is an article from a 1979 German music magazine called "Top-Biz". The Player-Up numbers on the backglass indicate that this game is a conversion of Bally's 1979 'Star Trek'. The text states that a pinball manufacturer from New Jersey was desperately searching for a star who was willing to be pictured on a pinball machine. They found that star in Southside Johnny. They predicted the machine would be a top-seller, and for their next machines they would get in touch with stars such as Rod Stewart and Eddie Money. Another image (not shown here) shows the full name on the backglass as 'Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes' and an unchanged Star Trek playfield and cabinet art, suggesting that only the backglass had been changed for this converted game. ** R&B singer Southside Johnny (real name John Lyon, from New Jersey) teamed up with the band The Asbury Jukes in the 1970's. Known as "The World's Greatest Bar Band", they still perform today. used
