I wish I knew where I got that pic, but it was implied (or maybe I made it up?) that the C-37A was the mic they used for the live recording. In my pics, note how he holds it away from not in hius mouth!

Yes, I know that it's not a 57. I said it looked more like a 57. I typed that before I took the picture.

The front cover is Frank Sinatra with the same mic standing between Count Basie and the crowd during a show. I can't imagine that they would stage that photo just to put a different mic in the picture.

There are several other pics in the book all with the same mic.
