John Mayer ``Where The Light Is'' (SonyBMG)

John Mayer hasn't released a full-length album since 2006's ``Continuum,'' so fans will have to settle for his live album ``Where The Light Is.'' The concert, recorded last December at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles, features Mayer doing an acoustic set, a set with a full band and the John Mayer trio.

Mayer is at his best when he's singing his heart out and playing his guitar. His acoustic performances of ``Daughters'' and a cover of Tom Petty's ``Free Fallin''' are a must-listen. With the band, he performed well-known songs ``Waiting on the World to Change,'' ``Why Georgia'' and ``I'm Gonna Find Another You.'' A DVD version of the concert will be released later this month.
