Released in 2005 on Aware Records, Try! captures the John Mayer Trio — featuring acclaimed musicians Steve Jordan and Pino Palladino — at their electrifying best during their 2005 live tour. Drawing comparisons to Stevie Ray Vaughan and Eric Clapton, this live record showcases a rawer, blues-driven side of John Mayer that set it apart from his earlier studio work. Rolling Stone praised the album, noting that "over most of these sixty-three minutes, Mayer proves he can bowl you over, not just make your knees weak."
Standout performances like "Who Did You Think I Was" and "Gravity" highlight the band's dynamic chemistry and Mayer's impressive guitar work throughout the set. Even reimagined versions of familiar songs like "Daughters" take on a new energy in this live context, fueled by the trio's tight, blues-rock groove. For fans of live blues and rock recordings, this is a compelling document of an artist stepping fully into his role as a guitar-driven performer.
