Lori Lieberman, 1972 I believe. Lori was the first to record this song. The song lyrics are based upon a poem that she wrote.

Recent photo of Don Mclean

feeds@yuku.com (Believer) — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 01:18:49 GMT

I found this photo of Mr. Don Mclean online tonight. This is the living legend who is still touring and even
recording. Those fortunate enough to see Don in his golden years will surely be in for a treat. I doubt
seriously though that Don will be coming anytime to North Florida, which is where I live, darn it.
So, go see this living legend if he comes touring...

Castles In the Air and Crazy Eyes Picture Sleeve and 45 rpm record.

Here's a rarity that I found on Ebay, and NO I didn't rush to buy the thing. Note that Don is wearing
cowboy boots. It seems pretty obvious that this pairing of songs has come from the "Chain Lightning"
album and thus this is Don's NEW and IMPROVED version of "Castles In The Air". Don claims that
this version is now the "Hit...

Opinions of the 2 cd collection: Prime Time, Chain Lightning & Believers.

feeds@yuku.com (Believer) — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 21:17:19 GMT

I was playing with the formatting and somehow I blew up this photo of Don Mclean that I found on the internet. Nice photo don't you think. It was for sale on Ebay.

I was wondering what some of you might think of the 2 cd collection of Prime Time, Chain Lightening and Believers. If you don't have this two cd set put out by Edsel just comment on the albums...

Rare 1971 Radio Concert

feeds@yuku.com (JimMonaghan) — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 21:54:37 GMT

In late December of 1971, Don did a concert in front of a small audience at the A&R Recording Studios in New York City. It was part of a regular series that was broadcast on WPLJ.

It's in the music player under "Rare Concert" on the Everybody Loves Him, Baby website. There are 16 files in all including the intro & outro and commercials for 7-Up soda.

I believe this was the second of two...

American Pie -- please check out my cover version

Hi, I just joined. I just wanted to share a link to my cover of American Pie, done with a Filipino band when I was on holiday recently.

Feedback welcome! I was a bit nervous to start -- had not even rehearsed with them before -- but friends say that it's not bad once it gets going...

Thanks in advance to anyone who watches!

If you register with 'TV-AM Moving Image' (click Home then Access the Database) you can see great versions of Don singing Crying and Mountains of Mourne.

Vincent 1987

feeds@yuku.com (Highwaymen) — Sat, 11 Jul 2009 15:42:50 GMT

Performance of Don singing 'Vincent' from 1987 on YouTube. It is hard to find. Look under natser111 - the person who downloaded it. As I recall this is from the Des O'Connor show at the beginning of his UK tour in October 1987.
