I sure never thought of Stevie as sounding raspy!

We used a KM-86 on his first productions and I understand the folks in New York and LA continued using KM-86s for the most part. What you don't want is a peaky mike like a cheap condenser. 87s and 67s with the pad engaged work great as do RE-20s, 666s, or most ribbons.
Thanks for the correction Bob, shoulda just kept my mouth shut huh.

But he does sound raspy (a lil') to me, on "Maybe your Baby" and "Haven't done nothin"

Bob, what albums did you work on with Stevie? He's one of my all time favorites!!
