The lyrics to any Don McLean song are well worth taking note and listening to they make perfect sense and do tell a story if you listen to the tracks on this L/P they all seem to follow on and tell a story...I suppose you could call it a concept album....he defiantly has a way with words...

Don McLean...Tapestry.

Do not listen to this L/P as background music otherwise you will miss a great set of lyrics on every song....he certainly knows how to compose the music... and the lyrics that make perfect sense and do actually tell a story so at the end of the song you do have a beginning-middle and an end....an excellent storyteller in music !!....Tho' the last track seems to have been recorded in a bit of a hurry !!....Take particular note of "Three Flights Up" doesn't get any better than that !!!
