About this Artist

  • Biography

Editorial Reviews

It's no secret that John Mayer is a 21st Century Fox, wining and dining women all through tabloid headlines, so it's about time he delivered an album that traded upon his loverman persona -- and Battle Studies is that record in spades. Here, Mayer fashions a modern groove album that maintains a smooth seductive vibe so thorough it spills into a one-man band cover of "Crossroads." Mayer remains a disciple of Eric Clapton, but he shows an unusual interest in big AOR, creating a coolly clean blend of synths and Strats that's as much about texture as it is about song -- perfectly appropriate for a make-out album. Sometimes, Mayer dips too heavily toward texture, but he can't resist good, tight melodies and builds this album upon them. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi All Music Guide

One of a Kind Talentby Shoeflyshoe

September 27, 2010: John Mayer is a great singer/songwriter and AWESOME performer - he's one of the best guitar players for his time. Although this particular album isn't as solid as the earlier stuff, I still think it has the John Mayer pop a true fan looks for.

I think most people rate albums according to the number of tunes they actually listen to overall - and once again, there isn't a song on this CD I don't enjoy.

I love John Mayerby Melancholia

September 27, 2010: John Mayer is a brilliant musician but this CD is too subdued for me. I

keep listening to it and as I do I like it more. My expectations were

different for this.
