John Mayer's third studio album follows the multi-platinum "Room for Squares" (2001) and "Heavier Things" (2003), and marks his first turn as producer. It is his most soulful, cohesive collection yet and he says it's no accident that this project is where all of his efforts, his potential, and his disparate influences fully come together.

Continuum is about as apt a title as it gets 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. But to weakly pronounce this another worthwhile effort from an artist the world has come to expect a whole lot from and then call it a day would be no minor misdeed, because it's also the best, boldest disc he's ever made. Taking maturity as a theme throughout, Mayer tackles a batch of adulthood's bogeymen: indifference on the uptempo chart-climber "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

Limited Edition Review August 6, 2008
I enjoyed the first two studio albums enough (Room for Squares & Heavier Things) and I liked this album on its initial release. I thought he was a good song writer but I wasn't completely sold on his guitar playing talent until I saw him live. It wasn't until then that I ran out and bought every live album he's made. He is truly amazing live. Despite the fact that I think the record company is trying to shake me down for more of my hard earned money for an album I already own, this album is worth it for the six live tracks alone. I bought it for the live, 10 minutes and 21 seconds, incendiary version of "Gravity" and the rockin' live version of "I Don't Need No Doctor". This is a must have if you're a John Mayer fan. And if you don't have "Where The Light Is" you need that too...... but that's a whole other review.

It's been a very long time since I've actually liked every song on one cd, but this one has achieved that...and then some! No matter who he emulates, he definitely brings it to life with his talent.
