John Mayer - Last Train Home (Live From The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon)

[@dissident5179]

The audio engineer deserves a huge raise. Excellent job on this, dude nailed it!

[@weslikestoplayguitar]

It's so perfect I almost wonder if there's some supplemental backing track going on in there. But then again, I'm familiar with some of the session players in his rhythm section and know they're indeed top notch. I'm so confused anymore...

[@robgrizzle1293]

@@weslikestoplayguitar Obviously...all the backing/click tracks start when John hits the "start button" with his foot at the 0:03 mark.

[@joeywho534]

Perfect mix.

[@jonathanbolger6173]

💯 I thought the same. Even John's voice sounds great. Sometimes his voice sounds really pitchy but the balance was obviously good on stage too.

[@Snook_]

@@robgrizzle1293 its clearly not pre recorded, a few effects maybe and a click track, but its very obvious back to back on high end equipment it sounds totally different and the tempo is also different to the album. It's very fucking well done live.
