German translation:Studio, das in einem Ladenlokal gelegen war
Explanation:
There's no literal translation for that in German. It simply means that the studio was located in a former shop and you would express that with a relative clause rather than using a compound noun.

I assume you are talking about the famous Sun Studio, where Elvis recorded? They have a website: http://www.sunstudio.com

Explanation:
Laut diesem Wikipedia-Eintrag handelte es sich um einen ehemaligen Heizungsreparaturladen.

Ich glaube aber fast, dass das mit dem Laden bei der Übersetzung wahrscheinlich nicht so wichtig ist. Aufnahmestudio reicht, zumindest in diesem Satz, sicher auch. Wenn es im vorherigen Satz schon um das Gebäude geht, kannst du den Laden vielleicht da mit einbauen (... Es handelte sich um das Aufnahmestudio von Sun Records in Memphis.).

Studio mit Schaufenster


Explanation:
Nur so ein Vorschlag: Wenns in nem ehemaligen Laden ist, hat das den Reiz, dass man draußen Leute vorbeigehen sieht und die zu einem reingucken können.
Falls das wichtig sein sollte im Zusammenhang.

Ladenfront


Explanation:
ein weiterer Vorschlag:

das in einer Ladenfront gelegene Sun Records Studio in Memphis.

Ansonsten schließe ich mich KisTranslation an, dass diese kleine Nuance nicht ganz so wichtig ist. Viel Spaß noch bei diesem anscheinend interessanten Thema :)
