When he takes a solo it's like I'm watching a sports person do something amazing... Like I'm sat here hands together just begging him to keep going and put everything he's got into the next lick
Man I was just thinking I wish that around 6 mins or 6:10 I wanted them to, like John's called it before, "go all Allman on it" and have a two part, harmonizing guitar solo for a few bars with the other guy who played that sweet solo (edit: oh yes, now I remember his name is Isiah Sharkey). That would've been awesome, although yeah, the way they did it, great solos all around.
Let’s settle down, just a bit. John is very very good. The amount of sheer time Duane had was very limited. Duane is still revered as one of the all time greats to this Day. He was 25 in 71’.
This was the last song of his first set in Milwaukee this summer.....and it had me in absolute tears. The words, the melody....and DAMN, that guitar solo. There are times that I just need to hear this song....this is one of them.
Such. A. True. Arist.. I. Love. The. Lyrics. In. This. Song. THEY. ARE. TRUE. TO. LIFE A. Genius with. A. Guitar. And a. Genius. At. Song. Writing. SO REAL.
...I remember when I heard this song for the first time, and than came the solo... I told my wife "John just stepped on a new level"... And time will prove my thought... ;)
@@jacobmoloyrmt8217 spoke to Steve when he was doing a masterclass a few weeks ago, reason he couldn't make this tour is because he is focusing on the new verbs album he was originally meant to do the tour that's why pino is there, aaron hates touring so john probably threw a shit load of money at him. I do miss J.J Johnson though he is johns best main band drummer imo
I love the vibe Aaron Sterling brings to the band. He's my favourite of John's drummers. Obviously, if there's a trio set, I want none other than SJ behind the kit. But nowadays with all of the folksy songs John does, Aaron is a much better fit. Aaron has a phenomenal "producer's ear" and really knows to listen and play to what the song needs. He can carry the energy through "Belief" and "Vultures" but he can also do the quiet brush-y, soundscapey stuff. In those situations Aaron outshines Steve 100%. Aaron is probably the most recorded drummer of the 2010's. So I learn to trust his judgement.
@@JohnLaco Steve may not be great for his newer stuff I agree. I just think JJ and Steve were by far the best John has ever sounded. “Where the light is” is still one of My favorite performances live.
I scrolled a bit and saw no cork sniffing guitar snobs post that he was soulfully shredding on an Epiphone....yeah, it's a thing in the guitar community. That's possibly more incredible than the solo. haha
I found a 10 min long backing track of just the end solo section of this song on loop and its my favorite thing to jam on but I can't listen to the lyrics. Hit WAY too close to home...
its not an endless loop its John mayer laying down and jamming the parts he thought would make it into recording and especially end part mostly makes it onto final cut of record...amazing watching him refine and.refine his solo ides feom his head to the tape its a great record of that solo being born:)www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=m.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3D82Bx4OfWQ_Q&ved=2ahUKEwiC98Cnms72AhWFUcAKHdt9BM8QwqsBegQIARAF&sqi=2&usg=AOvVaw0j8Yd-abahQUz66r6gy5Wx
His guitar for the solo is my favorite sound! He uses it in several songs and I dies every time. What kind of guitar is it, and how does it get that sound?
I wish that John would realize that moving away and then a second later back to the microphone - shaking a guitar trying to emulate a " vibrato " note and constantly giving " a nod " to the left are simply not necessary or attractive things that a musician of his caliber should be doing. He finally stopped the " bounce " antic - why not these other antics John ? YOU DON'T NEED THEM IN YOUR SHOW. Just be you and keep writing / performing legendary music John. THAT is enough !
Wait what's wrong with all of this lol, shaking the guitar provides the vibrato so why should not he,it's part of playing. And he should keeping jumping around as long as his legs allow loll 😂
@@tanayasharma7776 Interesting insight on the inner workings of guitar vibrato tanaya. WRONG , but, interesting. I won't bother trying to explain the other part of my comment - it's a guitarist thing - you wouldn't understand.

@@tanayasharma7776 So.... If I play a tuba or a banjo and I shake them I will get a " vibrato " sound from them ?

I can say that these " antics " do not seem to cause John any noticeable distraction based upon his instrumental / vocal performance. Then again - he is John Mayer.
You must have a good ear because I don't hear any mistakes. The ending solo is different than the studio version. In my opinion, studio version has more of Mark Knopler feel to it.
When your solo is always based on what you think of in your head at that particular time it's bound to happen. That said, 99% of the people in the audience had no idea.
@@PaxtonTrench Hey.. It's nothing, three little mistakes is nothing, especially when you're not using your audience to that.. Three mistakes compared to what he generally does.. Nothing mean :)
I have yet to hear Christian music that sounds this good. It has a little bit if a Gospel and Soul vibe to it but that's different than Christian music.

OM f***ing god. His solos are phenomenal. Feels like 1971 listening to duane Allman

I THOUGHT THE SAME
Amazing, amazing ! Guess I feel like John Mayer has reached the Olymp of immortal Guitarist/Songwriters .
Best live of this song
Yes i agree. Probably because he plays the solo om his Epiphone instead of the PRS. Like he did on the studioversion.
sigge ek he used a casino in the studio
SergeantPlant Yeah, the casino one is s an Epiphone, right?
@@siggeek503 it sounded like you said the PRS was used on the studio version
SergeantPlant Oh i see,. Probably chose a couple wrong words.
I agree. That was unbelievable.
His solo got me smiling. I love it!
Whole band vibing and banging heads on the solo, and what a solo!
my goosebumps have goosebumps
Best sounding live acoustic ever...
I think the solo in the end is one of his best!
6:13 ... Unbelievable!!!
i never heard anyone play guitar like him, the wtli solo of slow dancing always makes me cry.
This is incredible. John Mayer is an amazing artist. Just praying that he comes to Portugal.
Just close your eyes and get lost .....Beautiful ♥️
This ending is absolutely electric!
One of the greatest for sure.
touches of Mark Knopfler
So soulful. Baby I FEEL LIKE!
Interesting how hes plays in minor on the recording, but major live for the solo. Has a whole different vibe to it
I guess he just felt like playing in major that day.
He’s bouncing from a few scales: B Dorian, B Major, and B Minor
Sounds mostly minor/blues/egyptian to me...
“The major 3rd is your friend!”
B major-minor pentatonic, he bends half step lots of minor 3rd
What a great performance, and the audio is amazing.. the solo fuc*ed me up.
4:49 - oh yes!
The little bridge part between chorus and the outro🥺
Pino is so sad without Steve next to him :( as am i.
Aaron Sterling is no Steve but imo he is a rock solid drummer and fits well with the band
Aaron is the drummer on the record. His feel is different than Steve's and is more suitable for this kind of tune.

Okay the drummer goes OFF during the solo
Excelente solo por favor!!!
I can't understand why in the studio versione he let the song fade out, it's so sad...
This song sounds so much better live
This guitar screams... in the best way.
what a great song... also, good camera work here, it's not easy to capture the emotion live but you dit it pretty well
