Happy birthday to Donald McLean III, from New Rochelle, New York, - TopicsExpress



          

Happy birthday to Donald McLean III, from New Rochelle, New York, who gave us todays song of the day! Don has roots in folk music, but his love of early rock and roll is evident in this song. American Pie is a literal ode to rick and roll, starting with Buddy Hollys death in February of 1959 and continuing through Elvis, the Beatles, the Stones and Bob Dylan. It was the number one song for four weeks in 1972. Here is a great live clip of Don singing his ode in one take...impressive that he remembered all the words to such a long song! Don us 69 today.
