I would do a mono over head, then one royer in front of the kik about 6 feet away (the lower the more bass, the higher the more cymbals). then some royers ont eh kit, it will most likely only have one or two toms. Make sure you get a good balance of snare, cymbals and hat in the mono over head.
minimalism is very important in jazz. The more ribbons the better, especially on horns.
Do you work at Larry Gold's??
