Not a pretty location, but critical in audio preservation especially if you ever heard old radio shows out of LA. This was Electro-Vox Recording Studio in LA. it does not look like much from the outside, but this was an important studio. It is considered the longest running recording studio in North America.
The Studio was opened in 1931 by a sound technician at Vitaphone, Bert Gottschalk, it closed in 1999. When all radio was live many famous performers hired Electro-Vox to record an "airchek" including Jack Benny, Fred Allen, Bob Hope, Al Jolson, and Burns and Allen. It had reopened as Joey's Place at 5546 Melrose Ave.
