The much anticipated double CD of John Mayer in concert includes all the guitar player's hits, and the sound is unique. But the album is nothing more than a compilation of the different facets of Mayer, whose performance is divided into his three major stages. In the first part, he sings with the sole accompaniment of his acoustic guitar. Then he moves to a more jazz- and blues-inclined trio format (guitar, bass, and drums). Finally, Mayer joins his entire band with a rock sound. The truth is that the musician did not make the least effort to come up with new arrangements for his songs. If you have Mayer's previous live CDs, there's is not a single note here that you haven't heard before. --Ernesto Sanchez (People en Espanol  ) He aqui el esperado disco doble en concierto de John Mayer, el mismo incluye todos los exitos del guitarrista y tiene un sonido es excepcional. Pero tambien hay que decir que el disco nos es mas que una compilacion de las diferentes facetas de Mayer que dividio su actuacion en tres etapas: la primera parte del concierto es el acompanado por su guitarra acustica, posteriormente viene una etapa con trio (guitarra, bajo y bateria) que se inclina mas hacia el Jazz y Blues, y finalmente podemos disfrutar de Mayer acompanado de toda su banda y con sonido rockero. La realidad es que el musico no hizo ningun esfuerzo por crear nuevo arreglos para sus canciones, si usted tiene los discos anteriores del cantautor en vivo, no tiene por que comprar este, no hay una sola nota que no haya escuchado antes. Este disco es una compilacion de exitos en concierto. --Ernesto Sanchez (People en Espanol )
Album Description
Two CD set. This album captures the multi-Grammy Award winning, platinum selling singer and songwriter in the element where fans love him the most - Live on stage! The special concert includes three sets: an acoustic performance, a rare set with John Mayer Trio (with Steve Jordan and Pino Palladino), as well as a set featuring Mayer's full band, all recorded during the night of December 8, 2007 at the Nokia Theater in LA. This album features the quintessential performer as an acoustic songwriter, electric guitar slinger, bluesman and vocalist. Highlights include many of Mayer's biggest hits, 'Waiting On The World To Change' new interpretations of cover songs, 'Free Fallen' and a previously unreleased Mayer gem 'In Your Atmosphere'.

John Mayer LIVE October 9, 2008
Grammy winner John Mayer delivers a good live set that includes "Daughters", "Who Did You Think I Was", "Stop The Train" and "Free Falling". John Mayer has become involved in the 2008 Presidential Race - Interestingly, in the 2008 Presidential Primary race, New York Senator Hillary Clinton earned more Votes than any other Presidential Primary candidate in American history (hillaryclintonforum, the denver group)
Must have for fans of John Mayer October 6, 2008
This two-disk set is a must have for fans of John Mayer. Whether you love his, acoustical arrangements, pop songs or the sound of the John Mayer Trio, you will find, "Where the Light Is" a perfect addition to your John Mayer collection. For those new to the sound and style of John Mayer, this set is a perfect introduction to his music.
In my personal opinion, I believe Mr. Mayer to be one of the most talented musicians on the stage. His mastery of the guitar allows him to fuse traditional blues, jazz and pop sounds into compilations with broad appeal. Fans who enjoy the styles of James Taylor, Dave Matthews and Jimi Hendrix will find John Mayer worthy of their time.
INCREDIBLE - EXTRAORDINARY - PHENOMENAL - WHERE WILL IT END September 29, 2008
As Incredible as music can get, John Mayer transcends Incredible to Extraordinary to Phenomenal to ... where will it end? I loved his first 2 major commercial releases Room for Squares and Heavier Things. After those releases, new John Mayer music was not appearing on commercial radio, which is either a sign that he was not recording or that commercial radio is in major decline. Three years later we got "Waiting on the World" (Continuum), but was that all there was from that release? Especially when he won the Grammy? No, which answers why commercial radio is in decline. Why we weren't hearing "more" is related to the change or departure in style that we were accustomed to from John Mayer and how we don't tolerate change in Artists we've come to "know".
I was fortunate to DVR an appearance on (PBS no less) Austin City Limits from October 2007. It re-opened my mind and presented me with the possibility that the reason I wasn't hearing John's music had more to do with me than it had to do with him.
Now I am back on board. And if you are out there wondering if it's worth it, well all you have to do is answer the question: "Did you hear the imprints of R&B or Blues in any his acoustic stuff"? If you did, than you didn't see Continuum as a departure or change but as a Continuum. You will see "Where the Light Is", as a compilation of poetry and music by an extraordinary talent communicating via an instrument you would think he invented. And to think he is so young will make us old folks pine to Stop This Train.

Live or studio, John Mayer's music is good stuff. This recording is beautifully mastered. You get live quality without the hiss of the audience. Plus, this is a pretty good deal, two disks for a little more than the price of one.
My favorites:
Waiting for the World To Change
Slow Dancing in a Burning Room
Daughters
Why Georgia
