If I Ever Get Around to Living shimmers with intricate arpeggios and gentle backup vocals. Melancholy harmonicas inform the mood of Whiskey, Whiskey, Whiskey and A Face to Call Home. Born and Raised John Mayer.

Mayer is confessional and a little chastened on Born and Raised, sometimes affectingly so. It sucks to be honest and it hurts to be real, he sings on Shadow Days, about being burned by bad behavior. On Queen of California, Mayer sets the amiably introspective tone for the album: Looking for the song that Neil Young hummed after the gold rush in 1971, he sings, pointing his horse to the Laurel Canyon of the mind. After the Gold Rush actually came out in 1970, but you get the point: This is a record about how hard it is to make arrangements with yourself when you’re old enough to repay but young enough to sell. Of course, this wouldn’t be a John Mayer record without a sweeping ballad that tries to gather the spirit of the age into a song. The orchestral gusher Age of Worry advises us – and, we assume, Mayer as well – to make friends with what you are.
I sometimes miss his blues edge throughout the album. But almost always it is earnest, brilliant, and beautiful music. 3 of 3 users found this helpful. 10. A perfect summer road-trip album. 70's folk and Americana for the modern age.
