223 Don Mclean - American Pie
from 1001 Album Club · host Birch
"Don McLean's second album, American Pie is dominated by its title track, a lengthy, allegorical history of rock & roll that topped the singles chart putting the LP at number one. "American Pie" has remained as much a cultural touchstone as a song, sung by everyone from Garth Brooks to Madonna while the record itself has earned a registered three-million plays on U.S. radio stations." - AllMusic Review by William Ruhlmann We know it's a song you must here but the entire album?
