Album Description
The best version of John Mayer is him in concert. Live, Mayer often extends his songs to upwards of 10 minutes, feeling every chord he plays as he grooves across the stage. Mayer's talent exceeds what any listener can grasp from his studio albums, and as such the As/Is album is a little piece of soulful heaven for any Mayer fan, and is at least an interesting album for others. For anyone who wants to belt along to many of Mayer's hits over the entire span of his career, As/Is is a good album. But for anyone who wants to hear a spectacular guitar player and musician hit his stride, As/Is is the album. sony. 2005.

Customer Reviews

YES! John Mayer IS a Legend in his own Time!
I'm listening to this CD right now...I randomly select either of the two CDs when I'm in the space for John...Either satisfies completely for individual reasons! This is my FIRST [yes, first] John Mayer CD, though I've heard some of his stuff before. I suppose it was John's appearance on Clapton's Crossroads [Guitar Festival] DVD which REALLY got my attention...John is aglow on stage, full of spirit, young verve and reverence for his gifts and everyone elses...He played alongside some guitar 'legends' and showed himself to be one in the making! Sooo, when I decided I wanted some John Mayer I was grateful to know a LIVE recording existed and picked up the CD As/Is. How wonderful! It really is a lift to hear his music, his words [he likes to engage the audience and isn't afraid to let them know he appreciates them all]...And the audience is as much a part of the CD recordings as everyone else...They give the whole thing an electric sparkle and I can FEEL the Mutual Admiration Society working! ;) John's range, variety and sheer joy in sharing his music is as palpable as it is moving and full of H.E.A.R.T. Bob your head, tap your feet, laugh out loud, dance...Enjoy!

RoCkOn John!

Thanks,

John Mayer "As is" just "OK"
If you want to buy a live CD from John Mayer, purchase "Any Given Thursday", a double CD also, which is without question much better. If you are a hard core Mayer fan and your looking for a few gems, there are 2 or 3 great versions of songs you already know on this. This is only for the hard core fan, but I am glad I bought it.

enjoy it!
As a hard core John Mayer fan, I enjoy this double CD set. I especially love "Blues Intro" and John's rendition of Marvin Gaye's "Inner City Blues/Make Me Wanna Holler." The rest is same ole, same ole, but the set is worth having if you love John playing the blues as much as I do. In concert, he does his old standards in all various ways, so no single one is ever the same. It's just fun to hear John in concert without actually being there.
