Did you watch ‘A Complete Unknown’ and wonder where all those vintage instruments came from?
If so, you’re in luck. This week, we’re talking to Buzzy Levine of Lark Street Music. Over 20 of the instruments featured in the movie came from Buzzy himself and we hear all about the process, his reaction to the finished film, and how he avoided a ‘Hateful Eight’ situation while his guitars were on loan.
We also chat about the store, the unlikely story of how its location is cherished by Hollywood, and much more.
