Nonesuch Records releases What's It All About—a solo acoustic album from guitarist and composer Pat Metheny—on June 14, 2011. After nearly 40 recordings under his name, this marks the first time there is not a single Metheny composition represented. Rather, What's It All About comprises 10 classic songs, some very well known, that hold personal meanings for the guitarist. What's It All About is available for pre-order now at nonesuch.com and patmetheny.com; all pre-orders come with a limited-edition photographic print (some of which will be signed) and a free instant download of the album track "Alfie," by Burt Bacharach and Hal David.
