GroundStar Laboratories

Built in 1969 for Country singer Ben Hall (2) by recording engineer Claude Hill, this Nashville studio’s first big project was multi-track session for Kenny Rogers & The First Edition. The studio was purchased by Roy Orbison in 1972 and renamed “US Recorders”, then purchased by Ronnie Milsap in 1978 and completely rebuilt as a 24-track facility. Initially called “The Tracking Station” upon completion in 1979, Milsap soon renamed it “GroundStar Audio Laboratories.” Milsap sold the studio in 1995; it subsequently became “Warm Front Studio” under the ownership of Raymond Termini of Category 5 Records in 2007; today the studio is owned by Black River Entertainment and is officially named Ronnie's Place Studio with the consent of Ronnie Milsap himself.
