[Dixielandjazz] Mike work

[Jim Kashishian]

Charlie writes:  On recordings I lean in and out, following the 
holes on my clarinet to get them under the mike; 

And, I'll bet you do the same, Charlie, when playing live.  I love to work
with the mike, particularly with mutes.  The mike can actually become an
important part of your horn when used properly.  That even means moving away
from it to just get your natural sound sometimes.
