MetaFour is divided into five sections, with the first containing instrumental music created for the 1992 film Mi Vida Loca. The second is the instrumental for the 1993 film Blue Flame. The third consists of previously unreleased live performances from various points in Taylor's early solo career, while the fourth contains a handful of acoustic performances and demos. The last section is a 17-minute question and answer session Taylor took part in at the Musicians Institute in Hollywood in 1998.
