      Not really, I'm sorry, I know I'm gonna take some heat for this but . . . don't jump on me yet, guys ok. Because I've watched him live - the guy is named Corey Heuvel (look him up) his version of this is stunning. Go watch him and you tell me. Mayer/SRV/Hendrix/Clapton to mention a few, all great performances. He is so underrated it's sickening.

      I think the most important part of his legacy as a guitarist is that he chose to take the pop music route and made it cool as fuck to the point where dedicated guitarists were trying to replicate his pop riff.

    I have been an admirer of John Mayer for many years.His voice is so melodic and full bodied now compared to the shy, sweet voice which started the ball rolling. As far as guitar solos go, he has transitioned to a folk jazz genre of stellar caliber music."Neon" has undergone a stunning metamorphosis into a world class song good enough for the Jazz Festival of Montreux.You have honed your craft and the fans are wild about it. So many great opportunities will come for you in the near future.Much success, love and blessings!

    One of the things that makes him unique is that this song was on his first independent album ' Inside want's out ' in 1999 before he signed with Columbia and today it would sit right along beside the songs on mostly any of his albums, and not only Neon but also Comfortable and Victoria, imo.
    It's also great to go back and watch some of his earliest performances solo and with Clay Cook and also Clay's solo renditions of some of the songs that they shared.

    Wow. This performance is fire 🔥. Amazing!!! In Las Vegas few days John played Neon so relaxed and free, like it’s super easy. It was cool. But this performance… it’s really great.
    Around 15 years ago I remember, how one my friend gave me some records of John and said, listen this. I listened few songs, and I didn’t find nothing interesting. And I thought… He is just a singer. Like most pop guitar players, nothing special. And forgot about him. And then, later, I saw project of Herbie “Possibilities”, with John. And I started to think, that I was wrong) I started to listen every record that I have,every song. And I found it. It was acoustic, only guitar and vocal, no band. I remember I heard only first chord! It was something like C13#9. And I realize that John is not just singer. Hi is MUSICIAN. And from that moment I big fan of John, big fan of Neon.
    I had dream to hear Neon live. I didn’t expect that my dream will come true. But it happened few years ago. It happened like magic. I mean situation happened like this, that it happened. I feel like I’m crazy about this song. But I really love it. Little bit jazzy.

    It’s funny how he still only plays it with his thumb and index finger and people still have trouble. But if you watch the beginning he did an exercise that looks like instructions to get prepped to play it. What a flex

      Hi Sir - I'm reaching out to you because I want you to go see a guy named Corey Heuvel - he has done over a hundred livestreams and I've been there for most of them. He is too humble to promote himself. As a guitar player you will see and hear how much this young guy has put into his performance. Mayer/Clapton/Beatles/SRV/Hendrix and more. He has recorded several CD's, soon to release his new one. Go watch him for a while and tell me I'm wrong.... I like John Mayer - he is an icon, but as most performers know, always look over your shoulder to see who is coming up behind you. It's Corey !

    Wow...he actually sings with proper technique that won't wreak his voice now!...and that solo section is beyond badass now compared to the 2000s and it was amazing back then too...And he acknowledged his mutant thumbs!! LOL...Btw, For guitar players trying to learn to improvise that solo section for coffeeshop gigs or whatever, I did just figure out a hack: If you can get your thumb to do that ridiculous bass line, you can use the Cm Pentatonic with it on your other fingers which most us guitarist know like the back of hands and it sounds very funky 😎

    @crazydrummerlad1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    There are a lot of comments about the live at Nokia version being superior. I understand the preference for one version over another. When I compare that to this, it’s undeniable how much John has grown from a technical perspective. It’s such a treat to see much more of that Charlie hunter style of playing and how well he supports his singing with his playing now.
    Edit: silly grammar :P

    • @Johansebastion
