im lovin this acoustic vibe he's got here. i would love it if john eventually took, all the songs that never made it onto room for squares (like sucker, in your atmosphere, comfortable, love soon etc.) and record them.

@wnoraesyia2305 I've never heard any covers by JM of Stevie Wonder, but I think he should! I'll keep my eyes open for anything Stevie related. ;~)

[rinuextreme]

@MikeysMisses2 When he played Stitched Up, at minute 5:15 live he improvised a solo that had a lot to do with Stevie Wonder's Part Time Lover :)

[MichaelDamaniMusic]

i absolutely love john mayer and thanks for posting, but do you know why his guitar sounds vibrato(y) if thats a word?

[MikeysMisses2]

@MichaelDamaniMusic No, I'm not sure... maybe the equipment he was using wasn't that good. Hopefully someone with more technical knowledge will know. :~)

[Gipedo]

@MikeysMisses2

I can only guess that when this was recored John didn't have a professional "Mic'ing" crew to capture the guitar sound naturally so this was recorded using the internal "pickups" on his acoustic which always creates a more synthetic sound but is a cheaper way of allowing the sound to be amplified.

[Gipedo]

@MichaelDamaniMusic

The vibrato(y) sound that I think is being heard is just an added reverb effect likely adjusted on the PA System. You can here the tech on the sound board increase the reverb level when the song get to about 6:25 .

@MichaelDamaniMusic It sounds like it's been compressed as this video is probably very old and has been around abit, youtube also does a shitty job with compression, but it's getting better now. I think this was recorded onto a cassette, and then when transferred to digital it was compressed a hell of a lot.

[Jst0911]

@MichaelDamaniMusic maybe the sound ur thinkin of is almost like an auto-wah. like boww boww tick bowww. (like at 6:09) you can get that sound by hitting the string really hard with ur finger. but that round amp sound is crazy could just be compression from the camera

[iidaw]

ååh, way back in 99 liksom!

[Gipedo]

YESSS ITS BACK, i love this version the most...
