Difficult. Great guitar work but only in small doses for me because it is interspersed with insufferable interviews - Mayer undoubtedly has great talent but humility is not apparently one of his qualities. I generally prefer music DVDs to CDs but in this case it is the other way round. For a role model of a true guitar wizard who remains very humble and I would imagine very approachable look no further than Mr 335, Larry Carlton.

This is a truly excellent album. THe acoustic sets are superb and show John Mayer off as the brilliant guitarist that he is. The trio sets and in deed some of the full band songs sound very much like Jimmie Vaughan. It is excellent, the songs are his best, from all previous album, but live. The small twiddly bits between/ leading into songs are very good and original. I would definitely recommend this any day to anyone who like rock, blues or jazz.(I mostly listen to metal by Mayer is the Jazz man that I like, he is a shinning example for all those in his genre) *****. Buy it.

His best album to date (I've ordered the new live album - if it's anything like this & his perforamnce at Hyde Park it'll be incredible). Every song is superb - although "Slow Dancing in a Burning Room" has to be the best song in the past year (& is also on the new live DVD/CD!). His music is hypnotic, classy, equisitely crafted. Enough! Buy!

"Heavier Things" is John Mayer's second studio album which was released on September 9th of 2003. The style on this album is soft-rock, as this comes from a period before he transitioned into blues. The album consists of 10 tracks, including the Grammy award winning "Daughters". The title of the album appears to be an answer for those who criticized Mayer's music as being too light.

The album opens with "Clarity", a song for which the meaning is not all that clear, but in general it seems to be about Mayer's self-perception. The second track is "Bigger than My Body" which is about the frustration of not being able to accomplish in reality what one wants to do in their mind, and in particular relates to John Mayer's desire to write ...

I bought this having stumbled across a john mayer cover of kid a that i thought was brilliant. That and the reviews on here encouraged me however I the album i have just listened to bears no resemblance to what has been described.

If you like your music so bland you forget its playing then this is the album for you. He may have progressed with his later stuff but this is truly awful, save your money.

6.Continuum by: John Mayer

His best album yet, this is just a joy to listen to -- from the bursting guitar tones of "Waiting on the World To Change" to the mellow "Slow Dancing In A Burning Room". If you like John Mayer, you won't be disappointed -- but keep your eyes peeled for the Special Edition of this album, which includes live tracks!

Wow! This guy is almost as good as Hendrix - and he's almost as good as Stevie Ray - and he does covers of some pretty good songs just as well as quite a few great players I've heard over the last 40 years - but....he doesn't bring anything new to the table. So what's the point?

John Mayer is a name that if you asked anyone in the UK they'd reply "who?". That's got to change. I've been into Johns stuff for a few years now and I am really enjoying his new change of direction in Stevie Ray/Hendrix/Clapton influenced tunes. However I was pleased to see he is still keeping his acoustic roots and this album proves he can be both the jazzy electric artist and the soft acoustic ballad musician. Best tracks are "Slow Dancing in a Burning Room", "Good love is on the way", and "In Repair." I was a lil disapointed to see that "Stop This Train" - my favourite track on the Continuum album was not on the CD. That track is a brilliant, a moving song based on the journey of Mayer's life and how he has to leave his parents and go about his music - should ... Read More:
