Editorial Review:

Album Description:
Two CD set. This album captures the multi-Grammy Award winning, platinum selling singer and songwriter in the element where fans love him the most - Live on stage! The special concert includes three sets: an acoustic performance, a rare set with John Mayer Trio (with Steve Jordan and Pino Palladino), as well as a set featuring Mayer's full band, all recorded during the night of December 8, 2007 at the Nokia Theater in LA. This album features the quintessential performer as an acoustic songwriter, electric guitar slinger, bluesman and vocalist. Highlights include many of Mayer's biggest hits, 'Waiting On The World To Change' new interpretations of cover songs, 'Free Fallen' and a previously unreleased Mayer gem 'In Your Atmosphere'.

People en Español:
The much anticipated double CD of John Mayer in concert includes all the guitar player’s hits, and the sound is unique. But the album is nothing more than a compilation of the different facets of Mayer, whose performance is divided into his three major stages. In the first part, he sings with the sole accompaniment of his acoustic guitar. Then he moves to a more jazz- and blues-inclined trio format (guitar, bass, and drums). Finally, Mayer joins his entire band with a rock sound. The truth is that the musician did not make the least effort to come up with new arrangements for his songs. If you have Mayer’s previous live CDs, there’s is not a single note here that you haven’t heard before. --Ernesto Sánchez (People en Español People en Español)

He aquí el esperado disco doble en concierto de John Mayer, el mismo incluye todos los éxitos del guitarrista y tiene un sonido es excepcional. Pero también hay que decir que el disco nos es más que una compilación de las diferentes facetas de Mayer que dividió su actuación en tres etapas: la primera parte del concierto es él acompañado por su guitarra acústica, posteriormente viene una etapa con trío (guitarra, bajo y batería) que se inclina más hacía el Jazz y Blues, y finalmente podemos disfrutar de Mayer acompañado de toda su banda y con sonido rockero. La realidad es que el músico no hizo ningún esfuerzo por crear nuevo arreglos para sus canciones, si usted tiene los discos anteriores del cantautor en vivo, no tiene por qué comprar este, no hay una sola nota que no haya escuchado antes. Este disco es una compilación de éxitos en concierto. --Ernesto Sánchez (People en Español People en Español)

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - * disco consigliato (ITA) ...
Un buon disco, onesto sia nel suono che nelle esecuzioni
il primo CD contiene esecuzioni acustiche solo lui con la chitarra e finisce con alcuni brani nella formazione del suo mitico TRIO (Steve Jordan e Pino Palladino)
il secondo CD invece lo si può apprezzare con tutta la band al completo. Superbo in tutte le situazioni.
per chi non conosce John Mayer, con questo disco si riesce a farsi una buona idea della notevole caratura dell'artista.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - * John Mayer LIVE ...
Grammy winner John Mayer delivers a good live set that includes "Daughters", "Who Did You Think I Was", "Stop The Train" and "Free Falling". John Mayer has become involved in the 2008 Presidential Race - Interestingly, in the 2008 Presidential Primary race, New York Senator Hillary Clinton earned more Votes than any other Presidential Primary candidate in American history (hillaryclintonforum, the denver group)


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - * Must have for fans of John Mayer ...
This two-disk set is a must have for fans of John Mayer. Whether you love his, acoustical arrangements, pop songs or the sound of the John Mayer Trio, you will find, "Where the Light Is" a perfect addition to your John Mayer collection. For those new to the sound and style of John Mayer, this set is a perfect introduction to his music.

In my personal opinion, I believe Mr. Mayer to be one of the most talented musicians on the stage. His mastery of the guitar allows him to fuse traditional blues, jazz and pop sounds into compilations with broad appeal. Fans who enjoy the styles of James Taylor, Dave Matthews and Jimi Hendrix will find John Mayer worthy of their time.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - * INCREDIBLE - EXTRAORDINARY - PHENOMENAL - WHERE WILL IT END ...
As Incredible as music can get, John Mayer transcends Incredible to Extraordinary to Phenomenal to ... where will it end? I loved his first 2 major commercial releases Room for Squares and Heavier Things. After those releases, new John Mayer music was not appearing on commercial radio, which is either a sign that he was not recording or that commercial radio is in major decline. Three years later we got "Waiting on the World" (Continuum), but was that all there was from that release? Especially when he won the Grammy? No, which answers why commercial radio is in decline. Why we weren't hearing "more" is related to the change or departure in style that we were accustomed to from John Mayer and how we don't tolerate change in Artists we've come to "know".

I was fortunate to DVR an appearance on (PBS no less) Austin City Limits from October 2007. It re-opened my mind and presented me with the possibility that the reason I wasn't hearing John's music had more to do with me than it had to do with him.

Now I am back on board. And if you are out there wondering if it's worth it, well all you have to do is answer the question: "Did you hear the imprints of R&B or Blues in any his acoustic stuff"? If you did, than you didn't see Continuum as a departure or change but as a Continuum. You will see "Where the Light Is", as a compilation of poetry and music by an extraordinary talent communicating via an instrument you would think he invented. And to think he is so young will make us old folks pine to Stop This Train.

Bambi (Two-Disc Special Edition)
$21.49



It always comes up when people are comparing their most traumatic movie experiences: "the death of Bambi's mother," a recollection that can bring a shudder to even the most jaded filmgoer. That primal separation (which is no less stunning for happening off-screen) is the centerpiece of Bambi, Walt Disney's 1942 animated classic, but it is by no means the only bold stroke in the film. In its swift but somehow leisurely 69 minutes, Bambi covers a year in the life of a young deer. But in a bigger way, it measures the life cycle itself, from birth to adulthood, from childhood's freedom to grown-up responsibility. All of this is rendered in cheeky, fleet-footed style--the movie doesn't lecture, or make you feel you're being fed something that's good for you. The animation is miraculous, a lush forest in which nature is a constantly unfolding miracle (even in a spectacular fire, or those dark moments when "man was in the forest"). There are probably easier animals to draw than a young deer, and the Disney animators set themselves a challenge with Bambi's wobbly glide across an ice-covered lake, his spindly legs akimbo; but the sequence is effortless and charming. If Bambi himself is just a bit dull--such is the fate of an Everydeer--his rabbit sidekick Thumper and a skunk named Flower more than make up for it. Many of the early Disney features have their share of lyrical moments and universal truths, but Bambi is so simple, so pure, it's almost transparent. You might borrow a phrase from Thumper and say it's downright twitterpated. --Robert Horton
The Spitfire Grill
$9.98



This well-acted drama won the Audience award at the 1996 Sundance Film Festival, causing a festival ruckus when several distributors entered a bidding war in response to the movie's positive buzz. When the movie was finally released, audience and critical response provided a sudden reality check: the movie's good to a point, but hardly worth the fuss it received at Sundance. Packing a miniseries' worth of melodrama into 117 minutes, the story centers on a young woman named Percy (Alison Elliott) who served prison time for manslaughter and arrives in a small town in Maine with hopes of beginning a new life. She works as a waitress in the Spitfire Grill, owned by Hannah (Ellen Burstyn), whose gruff exterior conceals a kind heart and precious little tolerance for the grill's regular customers, who cast their suspicions on Percy's mysterious past. The plot unfolds when Hannah holds a $100-per-entry essay contest to find a new owner for the grill. There's ample mystery surrounding the collected money, a local hermit who's really Hannah's shell-shocked Vietnam veteran son, and circumstances that lead the locals to adopt a lynch-mob mentality at Percy's expense. By the time Percy is nearly drowning in a raging river, The Spitfire Grill has taken its melodrama a few steps 'round the bend. Fine acting is the movie's saving grace, however, and newcomer Alison Elliott anchors The Spitfire Grill with a subtle, emotionally involving performance. Thanks to Elliott and Burstyn, you don't have to feel too guilty if you find yourself reaching for a Kleenex as the closing credits roll. --Jeff Shannon

Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire
$14.99



Big news on the Harry Potter musical front: After scoring the first three installments in the series, John Williams has been replaced by Patrick Doyle. Still, Williams never feels far away. His main theme pops up here and there, and a track like "Voldemort," which eloquently illustrates the soul of a blacker-than-black wizard with thunderous cymbal crashes, shrieking horns, tumultuous strings, and a stately finish, firmly belongs in the Williams mode. Overall, Doyle acquits himself well. He can do light when needed ("The Quidditch World Cup," which starts out like some kind of jig), but mostly he's required to be ominous ("The Quidditch World Cup," which ends in martial war chants). Among the highlights are the aforementioned "Voldemort," but also the frantic, overpowering "The Dark Mark." Note that the CD concludes on a jarringly different note with three songs by the Weird Sisters, the group that performs at Hogwarts' Yule Ball. Led by Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker, the ad hoc band also includes members of Radiohead and Cocker's side project Relaxed Muscle. "Do the Hippogriff" is a fast-paced rocker that somehow comes across like a grungy hybrid of Billy Idol's "White Wedding" and "Dancing with Myself." The other two songs--"This Is the Night" and "Magic Works"--are less obvious, and much better. Still, the contrast between these tracks and the instrumental score that precedes them may not be to everybody's taste. --Elisabeth Vincentelli
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
$13.99



You needn't see the film of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone to appreciate the wonder, magic, and fearful chills of J.K. Rowling's phenomenal bestseller in John Williams's outstanding score. Williams typically avoids the source material for the films he scores, but he reportedly derived great pleasure and inspiration from Rowling's first Harry Potter adventure, and created a perfect motif (fully expressed in "Hedwig's Theme") to dominate his score. It's first heard as a dreamy celesta waltz and embellished through myriad incarnations and moods, often with a sinister edge befitting the darker tones of Chris Columbus's direction. Evident are fantastical allusions to Saint-Saëns and Tchaikovsky (among others), and Williams's epic track is "Quidditch Match," a breathtaking frenzy to accompany the film's dazzling highlight. And while Williams occasionally flirts with self-plagiarism (with inevitable variants of his Hook and Star Wars themes), this is nevertheless a richly regal score that brilliantly evokes the mystery and magic of Harry Potter's world. --Jeff Shannon
