Jukebox musical was led by the success of "Mamma Mia!", built around the music of ABBA. Reception of jukebox musicals has been divided, with the most common criticism being that there is too much focus on how many songs can be fit into the musical. Some jukebox musicals, like "Lennon" and "Good Vibrations" have been critical and financial flops. Others, like "Jersey Boys" and "All Shook Up" have been popular with both fans and critics. The term "jukebox musical" dates at least to 1962, following "Jukebox" (1939), though the general genre—motion pictures consisting largely of hit recordings—dates to the 1940s and 1950s.
