Here’s a Canadian pressing of Don McLean’s legendary 1971 debut “American Pie” on United Artists Records the album that transformed a folk singer from New Rochelle into a household name overnight. While everyone knows the eight-and-a-half-minute title track that dominated radio despite its length, this record showcases McLean’s full range as a songwriter, from the haunting Buddy Holly tribute buried within “American Pie” to the tender Vincent van Gogh homage “Vincent (Starry Starry Night).” The album captures that pivotal moment when folk was morphing into something bigger, with McLean’s fingerpicked acoustic arrangements supporting some of the most literate and emotionally resonant songwriting of the early seventies.
