with the help of grammy award-winning producer tommy lipuma and diana krall and her band - as well as guest appearances from eric clapton and stevie wonder, mccartney's new album is a deeply personal journey through classic american compositions. as authentic and daring a musical statement as he could make, this is the album paul has been thinking about making for more than 20 years - and probably the last thing his fans are expecting. the album was recorded at the legendary capitol studios in los angeles, new york and london throughout 2011.
