Studio: Selected Studio Recordings 1986-1995 is a 1996 album by Cowboy Junkies. It is a greatest hits compilation of singles from the band's albums on RCA Records, and their last official release for that label. (Two unauthorized compilations, Best of the Cowboy Junkies and Cowboy Junkies: The Platinum and Gold Collection, were released by the label in the 2000s without the band's participation.)
The band's next studio album, Lay It Down, was released the same year on Geffen Records. However, Studio also includes the song "A Common Disaster" from Lay it Down.
Studio is also the only official Cowboy Junkies album to include the band's studio version of David Wiffen's "Lost My Driving Wheel", which the band recorded for the 1993 benefit album Born to Choose. The song does, however, appear on some import versions of Black Eyed Man.
