Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Continuum is an apt title for John Mayer's third studio disc. Every element, from the peerless guitar playing to the plainspoken poetry of the lyrics to the breathy-sincere singing, makes a return from previous efforts. Taking maturity as a theme throughout, Mayer tackles a batch of adulthood's bogeymen: indifference on the uptempo "Waiting for the World to Change," aging on the melancholy-sweet "Stop This Train," and emotional trainwreckage on the big-rocking "In Repair." That's not to suggest he's turned overly introspective--check the Jimi Hendrix cover "Bold As Love," where he hits one home for guitarists who've been living in the shadow of legend everywhere, and the hard-charging "Belief," which benefits from a mesmerizing, liquid groove. Continuum may be the third in a series, but a creative cop-out this is not; Mayer is his generation's musical superman--powerful, unassailable, and magnetic. Hand that man a cape. --Tammy La Gorce

5.0 out of 5 stars John does it again...., 27 Oct 2006
By K. L. Lloyd "Dancing with Amplifiers" (Wales, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Continuum is a logical step up from Heavier Things, the mainstream sound of that album evolving here into a settled, bluesy tone. John has found the sound he is most comfortable with, I think, and it shows on this relaxed record. Standout tracks for me are the bittersweet 'Slow Dancing In A Burning Room', the simple and powerful message of 'Belief' and the honest yet strangely moving 'I Don't Trust Myself With Loving You'. But my ultimate favourite on this album is 'Vultures' - a self assured song with excellent guitar work and the confidence of a seasoned pro. Anyone into his earlier work should buy this album. Indeed, so should anyone who actually cares about music with heart and soul, as this album is filled to the brim with it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Laid back, 27 Mar 2007
By J. Stewart "JtC" (Edinburgh) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I watched John Mayer on TV, recording at Abbey Road studios, and was struck by his laid back style and smooth blues sound. Thoroughly enjoyable watching. The next day I bought this album, and while there are 2 or 3 songs I don't particularly enjoy, the bulk are simply stunning! My personal favourite is Vultures, such a catchy tune. My advice is money well spent!

I'm looking forward to warmer weather so I can sit outside with a glass of wine and John Mayer in the background!

5.0 out of 5 stars john mayer just keeps getting better, 25 Oct 2006
By C. Geiregger - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have been a huge fan of John Mayer's since his first release and have loved how he has improved with every new album. Heavier things was better than room for squares(which was itself fantastic) and now continuum has topped them both. John has really shown what he is capable of in this album. There are wonderful riffs, fantastic lyrics and some stunning solos. Even if you don't class yourself as a fan of blues music I'm sure you couldn't help but love this new evolution of his style. The album really shows how he has matured over the years. Gravity is probably the best song on there but also slow dancing in a burning room, i'm gonna find another you, heart of life and stop this train are fantastic. There isn't a song on the album that i wouldn't rate as 5 star. Don't hesitate, buy it, it's definately worth it.
