Thoose drums are more dry than a Martini extra dry ... but Jordan is way too cool!! .. but in my opinion i would prefer just a little reverb at least... Especially on the snare - sounds a bit like a bootleg or something .. :-)
@brooklynsweb a lot of folks don't know what real music sounds like. the gas that comes out of my ass after i eat beans sounds better than a lot of the crap people listen to nowadays.
@bgordo1015 agreed! John IS an artist! You just can clearly see how much he matured from "Heavier Things" into "Continuum". Continuum is probably one of my favourite albums from this century! but yeah...Battle Studies isn't a bad album in my opinion, it\s just that unlike continuum, a few songs are kinda forgettable. I do like the effects and EQ changes in some songs though. Heartbreak Warfare really reminded me of U2 , it was pretty cool. and Who Says is a great song!
@bgordo1015 agreed. 99 percent of the mainstream music nowadays is *at least to me* made up of meaningless lyrics and it just feels empty and dissonant. John really is a great musician to have around. I just hope he doesn't go too much into the "Battle Studies" vibe...I didn't really like "Assassin"...at all
@bgordo1015 im sorry i should have been more specific. i know artists have used autotune for a long time but i should have said "john mayer doesn't overuse autotune to the point of making it sound too hollow"my apologies man. i still think this is a great sound and he's very talented. all is not lost hehe :)
great tone he uses the cornish fuzz which is worth big £££££ i bought my fuzz pedal from MW pedals got the FUZZYTONE brand new, hand built , NOS components , sturdy as a tank, brand new for £45 ?????????? absolute bargain!!!!! go to myspacecom/mwpedals for soundclips
also i use a boss super overdrive 2 with the keeley mod well worth the extra money !!!!! great sound simply great all in all with mod the pedal is around £60!?!? dont spend a fortune sounding great !!!!
@HalfBillion Blues should only ever be recorded live, would be like making love to a woman through a hole in a wall as opposed to in the same room to record it in seperate parts.
I love the difference between this and the 'where the light is' performance. This version is a lot dirtier and has a lot more balls, but the live one is far more stately and refined. Love them both.

@bgordo1015 john mayer doesn't use autotune live. it's got a very distinct sound so why even make that foolish comment ?

I used to be a HUUUUUGE Mayer fan. But all I think of are the Playboy comments when I see him now. Still a good tune though.
