Editorial Review:
The best version of John Mayer is him in concert. Live, Mayer often extends his songs to upwards of 10 minutes, feeling every chord he plays as he grooves across the stage. Mayer's talent exceeds what any listener can grasp from his studio albums, and as such the As/Is album is a little piece of soulful heaven for any Mayer fan, and is at least an interesting album for others. For anyone who wants to belt along to many of Mayer's hits over the entire span of his career, As/Is is a good album. But for anyone who wants to hear a spectacular guitar player and musician hit his stride, As/Is is the album. sony. 2005.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Great Live Performance by John Mayer
This CD is exceptionally well put together. The tracks may seem familiar but the live feel is worth every penny. Two CDs worth of live music is a great deal for every John Mayer fan.
Rating: - great
I was a little put off by some of the reveiws I saw of this cd but it is really great. It is sort of a more of the same relese but if you like John Mayer whats wrong with that? He plays a Marvin Gaye song and does some great re-worked versions of his other songs. There is also a blues song that really lays his roots bare. Played the song for some of my friends that are "big" fans with out telling them what it was. It seems to have opened their eyes to the idea that he is more than just a pretty face.
Rating:  - as/is John Mayer
This is OK. Well at least I can say his "Blues don't Blow!"
Rating: - enjoy it!
As a hard core John Mayer fan, I enjoy this double CD set. I especially love "Blues Intro" and John's rendition of Marvin Gaye's "Inner City Blues/Make Me Wanna Holler." The rest is same ole, same ole, but the set is worth having if you love John playing the blues as much as I do. In concert, he does his old standards in all various ways, so no single one is ever the same. It's just fun to hear John in concert without actually being there.
Rating: - John Mayer "As is" just "OK"
If you want to buy a live CD from John Mayer, purchase "Any Given Thursday", a double CD also, which is without question much better. If you are a hard core Mayer fan and your looking for a few gems, there are 2 or 3 great versions of songs you already know on this. This is only for the hard core fan, but I am glad I bought it.
