Talk:Rolling Stones Mobile Studio

The Rolling Stones Mobile was purchased by a private recording studio in the lower east side of Manhattan. The Audio Engineer who worked on the mobile (as well as in the studio) and who recorded Patti Smith live at CBGB's was SONIC JOE HOGAN. He continues his work as an Audio Engineer in NYC.

Exile on Main St.?

This article currently states: "Several classic albums were recorded with the Mobile Studio, including most of Led Zeppelin's Led Zeppelin III (1970) and Led Zeppelin IV (1971), much of the Rolling Stones' Sticky Fingers (1971) and Exile On Main St. (1972)", but this seems to conflict with the actual Exile on Main St. article, and common wisdom I've come across. 99.180.87.32 (talk) 03:39, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

True, but anytime anything was recorded by The Stones at one of their "country houses" it usually meant the Mobile was in tow. This is the case with certain early tracks recorded at Jagger's house Stargroves, like "Shine a Light". The articles at fault are Exile and any song recorded earlier than the final sessions in France and LA. Stan weller (talk) 04:00, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

Is the Mobile a vehicle?

Something the article does not make clear is just what constitutes the Mobile. Is it an actual vehicle, and if so, what make and model? Or is it just the "cargo" portion, and if so, what kind of vehicles is it / has it been / can it be transported on? Could the studio be operated while housed on a barge or slung under a skycrane helicopter? -- Paul Richter (talk) 04:02, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

This is a very good point and well worth researching. I've always known it to be a truck with a studio built into its cargo hold, but have no clue as to its make or model. Good job bringing this point up and any help would be greatly appreciated. Stan weller (talk) 03:56, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
