More John Mayer Magic

Oh yes, John Mayer does it yet again. Continuum is a great title in many respects. For one thing, it suggests that this representation of his music is just part of the journey, this is where he's at right now, and he is very comfortable with that. John is not trying to "give you all he's got" in one album, although with what he gives you, you know there is a lot more where that came from. It doesn't always have to be fancy, but it always has soul. He's not trying to dazzle with his abilities, but you'd have to be deaf to not be impressed.

John is obviously enraptured with music, like a kid in a candy store. He has spent the last couple of years collaborating with numerous master musicians and has allowed the influence of each to wash over him while still being able to bring his own touch.

It's not very often that someone comes along that is this musically mature - melodically magical and deliciously understated, and at the same time writes lyrics that are meaningful and make you think. Sometimes its as if he's taken a walk inside your own head!

This is a pretty laid back album, one that you could listen to at any time without being intrusive. But its much more than that. I think this is another great marker on what will be a long and rich musical continuum from John Mayer.

Enjoy!
