A Great, Almost Forgotten, Songwriter
Remember Don McLean? Besides the iconic "American Pie," and "Vincent" (about van Gogh) he wrote many sensitive, poetic lyrics with lush, beautiful acoustic guitar accompaniment. Listen to "Empty Chairs." it's almost heartbreaking. What became of him?

Don McLean continues to be an active musician, touring and releasing new music. He recently released a new album called "American Boys". He also continues to perform his classic hits, including "American Pie". While he's faced personal challenges, including a highly publicized divorce and legal issues, he has remained a significant draw on the music scene.
I liked his 45 of a song called Dreidel.
