===After the Stones=== [[File:MovingTheMobile.JPG|thumb|250px|left|Moving the mobile]] In 1985, The Rolling Stones sold the RSM to [[Bill Wyman]], who in 1987 created the Ambition Invention Motivation Success project (the AIMS project), which was a vehicle to give new bands around the country a chance to work out of the Mobile Studio and produce a top-quality demo. The blue livery and yellow sign writing were applied as the colours of the project's sponsor [[Pernod]]. Producers Terry Taylor and Mick McKenna worked on about 60 tracks during the course of the project, which culminated with a final show at the [[Royal Albert Hall]] in February 1988. The Mobile was subsequently returned to the commercial marketplace, which had become extremely competitive, both financially and technically. It remained in operation until its closure in April 1993. The last recordings made by it were with Mick's brother [[Chris Jagger]] and his band Atcha!, at the unit's base in [[Pinewood Studios]]. In 1996 the Mobile, still in its original form, was sold through auction at Bonham’s and taken to the US by [[Loho Studios]] in New York City. After a bit of technical service, it was put into action in the underground music scene in New York, making recordings including live performances of [[Patti Smith]], the [[Ramones]] and nearly 30 other bands at the Continental for the ''Best of NYC Hardcore'' album.<ref>{{cite web|last=Porter|first=David|title=11 legendary recording studios to rival Abbey Road|url=https://www.musicradar.com/news/guitars/11-legendary-recording-studios-to-rival-abbey-road-220872#content|website=musicradar.com|publisher=Future plc|date=17 February 2010|access-date=19 April 2022}}</ref> In 1999, the "final" show of [[DGeneration]] at Coney Island High in the East Village, NYC was recorded from the Mobile by Loho Studios' staff engineer, Greg Di Gesu. The unit is currently owned by the [[National Music Centre]] in Calgary, Alberta, Canada (Cantos Music Collection acquired it in November 2001).<ref>{{cite web|title=Rolling Stones Mobile Recording Studio|url=https://collections.nmc.ca/objects/460/rolling-stones-mobile-recording-studio|website=Studio Bell|publisher=National Music Centre|access-date=12 April 2022}}</ref>
