About this album
American Pie is Don McLean’s defining folk-rock statement, blending confessional songwriting with American myth-making and sharp melodic craft. Released in 1971, it turned McLean into a major album artist and centred on the epic title track, whose meditation on loss and cultural change became one of the era’s most discussed songs. The album also includes Vincent, a tender tribute to Vincent van Gogh that showed McLean’s gift for plainspoken emotional detail. Balancing acoustic folk, rock and country-inflected writing, American Pie helped define the early-1970s singer-songwriter moment and remains his most enduring and influential work.
