Fun arguement...sorry I got here so late.
I've had the opportunity to record the Blues Brothers section several times for some great blues recordings. Lou Marini, Alan Rubin, Birch Johnson....sometimes with Ronny Cuber on bari. Certainly one of the best if not the best.
Fletchers thing about watching them warm up is totally true....they will wander to where thier horns sond good and play.....so pay attention.
The Firsts time I did them I put a 414 in front of Al Rubin.....he walked away from it proclaiming "cheap Japanese Shit!!!" when I pointed out is was Austrian....he said "Cheap Austrian Shit". So I took the U87 from Birch and gave it to Rubin, who was moderately happy....after telling me about his personal U47...which be of course didn't bring.
I had a u67 for Marini...so he was cool. And now was stuck on the Bone. Bone guys love RE20's....so we went with that.
So.....given your situation, Maybe the TLM on sax, the 87 on Trumpet, and the D112 on Bone.
Next time they can in I was ready....Coles 4038 for the trumpet and bone, 67 on the Bari, and a c12 on sax. Was killer.
Those guys can rock it. Just don't take a hit of Rubin's pot onless you have the rest of the day off.
