Read a creditable review before you label him a no talent manufactured pop artist...

From Rolling Stone:
" Forget "Who did you think I was" - Mayer's detractors will likely be thinking, "Who do you think you are?" when they hear his (capable) cover of Hendrix's "Bold As Love." No matter. Mayer is right not to worry about pleasing or offending them."

You can sample the tracks here too.

Pretty much. I used to think he was just another pretty-boy popstar until I actually gave him a chance.
