Title: Newest album of originals a disappointment for McLean fans
Product review: Anyone who, like me, treasures DonMcLean's earlier albums will be disappointed with this one. The songs here range from the humdrum title track to the cutesy Little Cowboy, an indulgent ditty from a songwriter who seems to have lost all his edge. McLean seems to have forgotten how to write poetry - lyrically this album borders too often on the trite and musically it is devoid of originality.
