Editorial Reviews

Hailed as one of the modern era s most gifted pop troubadours, Jason Mraz has shared stages with percussionist Noel "Toca" Rivera for more than a decade. The two musicians first met back in 2000, when Mraz was just making his mark on the San Diego coffee house scene. Enthralled by the young songwriter s free-flowing lyrical mastery, Rivera invited Mraz to join the eponymous trio he fronted alongside his brother Carlos. The group hit the road, travelling California s highways and byways together in a beat-up Winnebago, inspiring Mraz s classic song, "Dream Life of Rand McNally." When Carlos decided to take time off, Jason and Toca continued to collaborate as a duo, earning acclaim and passionate audience responses wherever they performed. Mraz s guitar and vocals match beautifully with Rivera s intuitive djembe playing and the two maintain a long friendship and collaborative relationship, recording and touring together to this day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thought Singer/Songwriters were dead
Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2012

Closing in on the big 70, I have been a music fan since the late 40s. My interests go from the Ink Spots and Sinatra up and through the 1980s. At that time the music being put out no longer interested me. I had never heard of Jason Mraz until I saw him perform on Live From Daryll's House. His vocals were amazing, his lyrics reminded me of singer/songwriters of the 1970s. Having only heard a few of his songs on that show, I took the chance and ordered his CD. To my amazement every single song I had a connection to. The lyrics and the rhythm were soft and soothing and reminded me of a time when love was truly the essence of music. Over the years I have enjoyed what most would consider "rock and roll". But these songs struck a chord in me that I have not felt in decades. Obviously, everyone has their own likes and dislikes. But for someone who has listened to so many different genres of music over the years, I am amazed with what this young man has accomplished. I enjoyed this CD so much that I would actually look into his previous endeavors and that in itself says alot. I don't impress easily (especially with today's music). I guess you could call me an old geezer; however, I give this young man five stars.

I'm old and not a Jason Mraz fanatic. I could never listen to an album full of his corny hyper-upbeat melodies. I'm a Beautiful Mess kind of mellow guy and I bought his "live'' album for that song only. Then I recently saw I Won't Give Up performed on TV and was blown away again. Fortunately I saw it on the Love Cd, sampled it, bought it and am carried away with how great all of the songs are, especially In Your Hands and Be Honest in addition to I Won't Give Up. A Beautiful Mess would fit like a glove on this great, great cd.

4.0 out of 5 stars Come on! It's Mr. A-Z!
Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2012

Being a huge Jason Mraz album, I was not disappointed at all with this album. His usual rhythmic melodies and swooning are found all over this album, and his guitar work remains outstanding and breathtaking.

For those hoping for (or only knowing) something more like his first album, you might find this one a little slow/mellow. I personally miss the more upbeat songs of his such as "Waiting For My Rocket To Come" and "Wordplay", which is why I gave this one only four stars instead of the five it probably deserves.

All around, though, I still recommend this one. Mr. A-Z has still got it. Check it out!

5.0 out of 5 stars Didn't Know What I Was Missing!

I just started to get familiar with Jason Mraz. I'd heard his name, heard some of the radio favorites, The Remedy, I'm Yours, but I never really paid attention. I thought he was going to be more like Justin Timberlake, et al, not that there's anything wrong with them, just not my taste. But than I saw Storytellers, which has familiarize me with other execellent musicians in the past. It got my attention! On the strength of Storytellers, I bought "Love is a Four Letter Word", I was really impressed! I love the infusion of influences, pop with jazz, reggae. Love it.

I couldn't get enough, so I bought his three other studio records, which I've been listening to non stop! All just as good. I read reviews that say"Love...", is weaker than his former records. I don't thing so. While I love "Waiting for my Rocket", "We Sing, We Dance...", I think "Love.." represents were he is in life today. His enjoying his blessings, and appreciating life. And well, maturing. A positive upbeat view, something we don't get enough of in this negetitive world.

He's an amazingly incredible talent.

5.0 out of 5 stars His best album yet.
Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2012

Anyone who demerits this album because it's "not like his previous music" is a tasteless moron.

You can still clearly get an upbeat Jason Mraz vibe from the songs, except that this brings musicianship and melodic depth to a whole new level for the artist. I fully expect this to win awards throughout the year, just as John Mayer did with Continuum. Even Jason's voice shows increased maturity in his control and restraint, making vibrato and pitch changes far more effective.

As far as musicianship, the album features fantastic use of a brass section, strings, and excellent keyboard work that first appeared on We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things. The studio quality is utterly impeccable with real-to-life acoustic guitar and electric guitar tones that have a raw, classic blues feel. From start to finish, there is a beautiful smoothness that resonates with you.

This album will certainly broaden Jason Mraz's usual appeal to a much wider audience, as great music tends to do. Pick this up not only if you're a Jason Mraz fan, but if you simply like excellent musicianship and vocals.

5.0 out of 5 stars A terrific musical surprise!
Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2012

This summer one of my daughters turned me on to this CD and I am now thrilled that she did.

For the most part I have felt that younger talent has forgone melody in favor of cliched licks and heavy rhythm. Boring!!! I think that so many think that redundant 'blues' licks, vocal acrobatics and busy arpeggios are all that matter anymore.

This CD is full of extremely pleasant, well written and nicely arranged MUSIC. It has all the elements of great writing, melody, outstanding groove (thanks to the wonderful drumming of Matt Chamberlain!), excellent recording and a whole bunch of subtle, musical beauty!

Let's say that this recording has rekindled hope in me that there really are young artists who know how to make great music. The songs are very memorable and are quite singable. I predict a number of hits will come from this record! I sure hope so! After all, we all remember the 'hits' we've known and loved over the years.

No matter if you're listening intently or listening passively, this is one helluva good record! Thanks Jason!
