Kennedy mentions:

p 162 - 1927 - temporary studio at Starr piano's Chicago store
p 164 - 1927 - Chicago studio - no location  mentioned
p 181 - 1927 - Gennett's portable studio on South Wabash in Chicago
p 188 - 1927-31 -  Chicago studio mentioned but nothing else

I doubt that Gennett's portable recording truck had anything to do with 
any Chicago location recordings, though. I'll ask Rick himself next we 
speak if anything more solid has come to light since he published "Jelly 
Roll, Bix and Hoagie" (1994).
