John Mayer - I'm Tore Down

This is from a blues show at Webster Hall in late 2004. I'm going to put up a few more songs from that show soon.

This kid is doing a great job! He needs to lead the blues life? You don't have to have led some horrible life to be a bluesman. Everyone has the blues and some people can display it like this young guitar slinger. I laugh so hard at some of the comments the "experts" toss out.

@42lynchmob Yeah, Jeff was outstanding.

@curtgenerowe Your right dude, was just haven a JEFF moment. lol... And John is a great player, but, he just doesnt have what Jeff did in my humble opinion.

[curtgenerowe]

@42lynchmob Healey was great, a true inspiration. But I don't see how playing guitar is a competition. We can compare great guitarist all day long, but whether one is better than the other is for the individual to decide. One might think the Jonas Brothers got them both beat (ridiculous)...but the point is that this is all very subjective. Personally, when I compare great guitarists, I don't see one as being better than the other but simply different.

@curtgenerowe All true, but he still cant play it blind and on his lap. Jeff WAS the best blues dude.

@dconrad1987 Bonamassa is good, but when I listen to his music I just dont feel it. If you listen to SRV, you know that you don't just listen to it....you feel his music in your heart and soul. I do not think Bonamassa has that ability. He is very technical though, and I can greatly appreciate his skill. Mayer, on the other hand, does have that ability to make the listener feel his music. Maybe not on everything he plays, but alot of what he plays. This is all very subjective anyway.

@guitarfan8815 I agree. I think that it was very clever the way Mayer did that. Started out poppy then went to blues, emphasizing good musicianship and soulful music.

He got the mainstream listening to, pardon...but, good music again. Instead of the prescribed record label electronic, no talent bullshit.

has anyone check out i'mtore down played by eric clapton? John Mayer has that lower tone and the other video has the clapton woman guitar cry sound.
