Shure SM57

The Shure SM57 is a dynamic microphone.

Stewart Copeland has a Shure SM57 among his microphone collection at The Worried Rabbit (or Sacred Grove as sometimes known). He remembers using one for brother Ian Copeland's vocals on a demo for "Clown's Revenge", recorded in 1976 onto a Revox A77 machine. The SM57 was also typically used on the snare drum for recording projects during the 1980s/90s period (such as The Rhythmatist).
