Where this is nothing like his previous work the listener should keep an open mind as this piece of work is a HUGE breath of fresh air!.
It screams classic american down to earth none pretentous organic and timeless genius! very Allman brothers with a hint of Neil Young and the softer edge of the Black Crowes.
If you have ears that are not painted on this album will please and could well be a future classic. Sit back and ENJOY!!!!!!!.

no, i do not think born and raised is better then john mayers older albums. but i do not understand why it should be compared to them, it is completely different to his older stuff and i personally think it has more emotion and more honesty to it. all of john mayers albums to me are amazing, and this album is no different. this album is by no means better than say room for squares or continuum but it is a good deal more interesting. in this album we can clearly see where john mayer is in his life, the things he had wanted to do and the things he still does. the album itself reminds me of old people, old people who remember stuff and tell stories about things that happened a long time ago, as if they are that old that nothing else is going to really happen ever again. if you buy this album you will not regret it, i promise. (me and my friend listen to it when she comes over for macaroni cheese)

I got into John Mayer through one of my boys who is a huge fan. This album is well crafted and IMHO better than his earlier stuff. Several reviewers have compared this work to that of other artists and for my 2 penny's worth I get a sort of feel of Bob Dylan.
I enjoyed it more on CD than I did streaming on iTunes during the free preview. I think it demands to be heard on a full size hifi.

He never disappoints!
I'm a big John Mayer fan and have all of his albums. Born and Raised is by far the best to date! I'm so glad he's back touring now too - these songs would be amazing live!

Excellent for drifting off to sleep
The most soporific and dull of all Mayer's albums. I will spare the analysis: it's boring, and not at all catchy. A marked departure for his earlier stuff. Read more

This is a lovely album, chilled out and smooth, I think if you like Ray LaMontagne you will like this album (and vice versa). Read more

Great if you get all the right bits!
Great album. Thought it would sound good on vinyl - and it does, although one or two tracks are mastered a little high for the needle and the occassional snare hit distorts... Read more
