Little documentary film I saw on Disney+ this evening, "The Last Repair Shop", but found it's also on YT!

Background stories of a few devoted musical instrument repair people that help care for about 80,000 student instruments in Los Angeles - one of the last Cities to supply free & free repair of instruments for public schools.  A few students also talk about how important their instrument is to them. 

 

 

Pretty cool that fiddler, Duane Michaels - of 'Bodie Mountain Express' is one of the repair technicians! 

Here's from 1975!
