And since in the previous post Don McLean mind better than we remembered his fantastic American Pie The Day the Music Died under this sentence, perhaps too exaggerated and not too bombastic, is known to one of the most tragic accidents that occurred in rock history. This title was coined by singer-songwriter Don McLean in a verse of his song American Pie following the plane crash of February 3, 1959 that the lives of three references in the gestation of the first chords of rock and roll was such as Ritchie Valens, creator of La Bamba, The Big Booper, and the best known of them also perhaps the most innocent Buddy Holly. The phrase was later used as a final blow by the press to represent the end of 50 and thus to the icons of rock and roll like Elvis Presley entered the army at the peak of his career, Chuck Berry was arrested , meanwhile Little Richard I set about religion, Jerry Lee Lewis also had legal problems and Buddy Holly suffered this death. However, the most romantic look of the title is because the figure of Holly, a very shy boy, with nice big glasses and a picture of nerd who did not wake any sigh from the female audience, but thanks to the innocence of his lyrics and the romantic view of the same, as well as the composition of their songs, aroused not only in the publics deepest admiration, but also by their contemporaries and coming musicians. One of the recent mentioned is Don McLean who dedicated this song to Holly beyond that in future interviews always denied the true meaning of it. However, to award only one direction to American Pie would only see the tree and the forest because summarizes some of the idiosyncrasies of American history. This is so that American Pie was recognized as one of the best songs of the twentieth century positioning in the post No. 5 and stressing the importance as a musical and cultural heritage for the US The opening track on the self-titled album, second in the discography of McLean lasts for more than eight minutes which begins very quiet and slow, accelerating and taking pace in the middle and ending again acoustically. That song is the ray of society of a country is a very difficult task to accomplish, however, this issue summarizes -a his own way some of the most important events that marked the pulse of the US Many verses are straightforward and do not require a second reading, while others need to be looked a little more attention because it uses metaphors to name a few characters without using their names. In the song some people parading in their particulars are The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, John Lennon, Karl Marx, The Beatles and the first man on the moon, as well as tragic events mourned the rock and American society as was the Altamont concert given by the Stones who had a shot in the documentary Gimme Shelter by a brawl between the Hells Angels biker band and public death. He also cites the grisly murder that caused Charles Manson Sharon Tate, wife of film director Roman Polanski with other guests during the party kept at home, as well as the aforementioned accident that killed Buddy Holly crashing the plane in which traveling. The album continues with the sweet and lulling Till Tomorrow, which shines and reveals his letter the mystery of a better future McLean poses on the heartbreak that exists in the world. The next song was the second cut that took the disc and again is for a figure with a long history on his back as is the Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh. The song Vincent dedicated to one of the greatest artists of the painting was unfairly overshadowed by the success of American Pie. However it is one of the most interesting highlights that has the Lp. The construction of the song has a beauty and is perfect for all points of view, from the treatment he had the voice of McLean, through the guitar and production that was behind it, which may sound simple, stripped of large effects but has that magic that makes us think that an effect and an added plus ruin.
