John Mayer Trio???????

If you have a chance to check out Eric Claptons "Crossroads" dvd, he does to songs. Was the first time i had heard his music, now i'm hooked....

Two years ago I would have bet my car that I'd never like a john mayer album. Had someone made that proposition I'd be looking for a new car as I think trio is a pretty solid recording. I think jm is an example of the inverse sell-out. He put out top 40 stuff to make a name for himself and once he "made it" he is back to his berkely roots and what he actually wants to play. my $.02.

Are you all referring to a new album by the trio? I read in Rollingstone a month or so ago that he was currently in the studio and/or about to release a new album...

I had the privelage of seeing John several times live before his Room for Squares release and mass popularity. He is a fantastic guitar player and really has good pace. He was playing a few of his songs acoustically and a lot of covers from Dave Matthews, SRV, Hendrix, and Bob Marley.

His mainstream stuff is a little too poppy for my taste but I have really enjoyed the Trio performance. Hopefully, since John has made some money, he will do more stuff in this direction..
