Guided by one of the National Music Centre's talented musician-educators, each tour will highlight a different landmark record from Deep Purple, Fleetwood Mac, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and more. Hear the music on vintage equipment, uncover the stories behind the recordings, and enjoy a live interpretation by your guide.
Conceived by Rolling Stones tour manager Ian Stewart and built in 1968, the Rolling Stones Mobile Studio (RSM) helped redefine how albums could be made-bringing professional recording out of the studio and into the world. Soon, word spread to bands like Led Zeppelin, who used that freedom to push their sound in new directions. Released in 1970, Led Zeppelin III captures a band in transition. Moving beyond the heavy sound of their early records, it blends hard rock with acoustic, folk, and blues influences-shaped by time spent writing in the Welsh countryside and recording in more relaxed, unconventional environments. The result is an album full of contrast and experimentation, from the blistering, riff-driven “Immigrant Song” to their reinterpretation of a traditional folk ballad, “Gallows Pole,” to the gentle, melodic “Tangerine.”
Please note: this session includes mature themes and may be best suited for older audiences.

Step into music history and listen to iconic albums as they were recorded through the historic Rolling Stones Mobile Studio. As part of this event, you'll get exclusive access to the RSM guided by the National Music Centre's studio engineer.

Equipped with a state-of-the-art Helios recording console, the RSM soon gained popularity among other musicians, leading to the creation of countless classic rock albums. Acquired by National Music Centre in 2001, the RSM has since been restored to its former glory and is now parked next to the King Eddy stage where it's available for artists to record. Many legendary albums were recorded using the RSM, including:
