| Personnel: John Mayer (vocals, guitar); Jerry Hay (trumpet); Steve Jordan , Ahmir Khalib Thompson, Steve Jordan (drums); Larry Castro, Lenny Castro (percussion); Michael Chaves (guitar); Greg Leisz (lap steel guitar); Dan Higgins (saxophone); Roy Hargrove (trumpet); Jamie Muhoberac (keyboards); J.J. Johnson , Matt Chamberlain (drums). Audio Mixer: Jack Joseph Puig. Recording information: Avatar Studios, New York, NY; Ocean Way, Hollywood, CA. Photographer: Danny Clinch. With the experience of a Grammy-winning, major-label debut under his belt and the requisite pop stardom that goes with it, John Mayer continues forging a steadily impressive musical canon with his third full-length outing, HEAVIER THINGS. Like the introspective musings of fellow, mellow pop singer-songwriters such as Dave Matthews and Jack Johnson, Mayer's songs delve into the subtleties of relationships and their accompanying navel-gazing. "Bigger Than My Body" finds him not only on a search for self, but sounding like Matthews with his hint of falsetto, as "Something's Missing" does much the same on a bed of swirling guitar and the occasionally chiming chord. As for the fairer sex, there's the requisite pleading found within the confines of the bluesy "Come Back to Bed," and the realization of loving someone with emotional baggage in "Daughters," which stems from childhood issues. All is not entirely dour, however, as this former Berkley School of Music student includes a pair of more up-tempo cuts--"Clarity," the hip-hop-brushed opener featuring jazz great Roy Hargrove and Roots drummer ?uestlove Thompson, and the hook-filled pop nugget "Only Heart." Packed with such emotional heft, it's no wonder John Mayer went with the title HEAVIER THINGS. | |
| Editorial reviews | |
| Included in Rolling Stone's 50 Best Albums of 2003 Rolling Stone (12/25/2003) 3 stars out of 5 - Mayer's progress is an open book, deep thoughts and all. Mojo (12/01/2003) 3 stars out of 5 - ...'Clarity' rejoices in falsetto wailing and excellent jazz trumpet... Q (12/01/2003) 4 stars out of 5 - ...With his follow-up [to ROOM FOR SQUARES], Mayer offers an equally available yet more sophisticated album...Most of these tracks proceed more subtly, with an emphasis on interior life... Rolling Stone (10/02/2003) | |

Disk Quality for this item (A-C): B+ This disk is USED. The following is an explanation of my disk quality grading system. This grading is for disks only and not for cases. A: These disks are in the best condition and usually come from well kept personal collections. A+ would be a new item. A would be in “like new” condition, but not a new item, and A- may have minor imperfections (very few faint scratches or scuffs). B: These discs may have more minor scratches or scuffs and on the higher end, B+ to B, the most common condition for personal collections and on the lower end, B-, the most common condition of previously viewed disks. C: These discs will have the highest number of scratches and imperfections. These are almost always rental discs and may have locations stickers on the discs or cases. Condition of the item: As a collector my expectation of quality is high and I will always do my best to accurately describe the condition of the item. Please understand that “condition” is subjective and may be affected by the light or how closely it is inspected.

This grading system is not a guarantee of playability but to give the buyer a better idea of the condition of the item they are purchasing.
