Donald McLean III is an American singer-songwriter and guitarist. He is best known for his 1971 hit song "American Pie," which is widely regarded as one of the greatest songs of all time. Frank Sinatra and Buddy Holly were among McLean's earliest musical influences, but as a youngster, he developed a passion for folk music, especially the Weavers' 1955 album At Carnegie Hall. McLean's father introduced him to the music of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger, and he began playing the guitar and writing songs at an early age. McLean's first album, Tapestry, was released in 1970. American Pie was originally released as a single in 1971, but it wasn't until the release of the studio album of the same name in 1972 that the song became a massive hit. American Pie quickly became a cultural phenomenon, and the song has been covered by numerous artists over the years. Madonna, Drake, and Garth Brooks are just some of the artists who have recorded Don's songs. During the student riots in Berkeley, California in 1969, McLean made the album Tapestry. The album included the now-famous song "Don't Look Back," which is about the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. In 1971, McLean released American Pie, an album that would go on to become one of the best-selling albums of all time. The title track, "American Pie," is a cultural touchstone, and the album also includes the hits "Vincent" and "Starry, Starry Night." In the years that followed, McLean released several well-received albums, including Playin' Favorites (1975), Prime Time (1977), and Chain Lightning (1978). He also toured extensively, and his live performances were often highlights of his career. In the 1980s, McLean's career took a turn for the worse, and he struggled with alcoholism and depression. He made a comeback in the early 1990s with the album Homeless Brother (1992), which received critical acclaim. In recent years, McLean has continued to tour and release new music. He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2004, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2021. He was also awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. To kick off autumn last year, Don Mclean put on a spectacular show at Sage Gateshead in Liverpool Philharmonic Hall in celebration of the 50th anniversary of American Pie!
