After seeing an interview by Matt Pinfield on the show "Sound off" and seeing John Mayer perform with Buddy Guy on Farm Aid 20th aniversay I am very eager to check out this recording, anyone have good things to say?
The band is very tight & JM 's vocals are sharp even though he struggles with some notes. The recording is so so but overall the CD is a pleasure to listen to. He makes me hurt while watching him sing on his vids.
one of the few young guitarists who truly plays with his head. his excursion into the blues may seem strange to some, but if you've been listening to this guy for a few years, quite often he's come off as as the heir the the throne of john b. sebastian......being old enough to even make the comparison scares me. a gig with mr sebastian would be killer.
You bet. Just got the LP this week. This album is refreshing to hear him flex his creative muscle and dip into the blues style, which he pulls off quite well. I agree with Miner42, band is great but the recording does not do the music justice, at least on vinyl.
His first two albums on CD sound great while the vinyl is so so, I imagine the same case hear after playing the standard vinyl version.
Yeah, I have this cd, and while this foray into blues may seem a bit of a departure from his norm hip-hop/top 20 style, I think it is a genuine attempt and effort to make it work. It comes off quite listenable and the recording is perhaps a bit above average. I have only had the album a couple of weeks and has limited play time, however it is growing on me more than his older stuff.
