1975 was kind of an odd time for the BBC to want to broadcast a Don McLean concert. He'd had two huge hits in 1972 ("American Pie" and "Vincent") and two smaller ones in 1973 ("Dreidel" and "If We Try"), but then no more through the time of this concert. In fact, he didn't even release a new album in 1975. His previous album was "Homeless Brother" in 1974. He did have one very minor hit with the song "Wonderful Baby" from that album, but that isn't included here. However, some of the other songs are from that album, like "La La Love You," "Homeless Brother," and "The Legend of Andrew McGrew."
This is a solo acoustic concert, just McLean and his guitar. It also is fully unreleased.
Some weeks back, a commenter noted there was another McLean concert for the BBC in 1972, for the "Sounds for Saturday" show. I can't find that anywhere. If anyone has it, please share it with me! Then I'll rename this one to "Volume 3."
This album is 48 minutes long.
