American Pie is McLean’s second album; his first, Tapestry, having been released to only moderate commercial success and acclaim in 1970. McLean was a protégé of Pete Seeger, having played with him in the 1960s. The album American Pie was intended as a unified work, as McLean has said that he was influenced by The Beatles' Sgt Pepper album and envisioned American Pie to be a similar album.[5] Believing that an artist's work should stand by itself, McLean generally did not offer explanations for his work's themes or meaning,[6] though he did describe the title song as involving "a sense of loss".[5] The album was dedicated to Buddy Holly, a childhood icon of McLean's, and was released in 1971 on the heels of the '60s, the defining decade of McLean’s generation. It has a melancholy feel and rather sparse arrangements.[7] At the time of the writing McLean’s first marriage was failing[8] and the optimism and hopefulness of the 1960s was giving way to the nihilism and hedonism of the 1970s
