Paul Weller Live From Abbey Road minute 0:34

Paul performing live with Telefunken M80 mid stage on guitar and also with another located at his Yamaha faux acoustic piano stage left.

I found with Supercardioid pattern's proximity of the mic to be behaving rather poorly in this particular application. Paul's vocal keeps trailing off each time he moves his mouth slightly off-axis. It is an appallingly poor application that appears that no amount of compession might overcome, sadly.

Here Paul is performing on a Shure Beta SM58 mic on KEXP radio in my hometown area (Seattle) in support of his show at the Neptune Theatre. It was a great show!
