    This info was posted by Arkie (hi Arkie!) 5 years ago but I missed it then and sadly, don’t know how to bring the thread forward.

    As many times as I’ve listened to American Pie, I never knew until today that JT sang with Pete Seeger, Carly Simon and Livingston Taylor on the final chorus. They were credited as the West Forty Fourth Street Rythmn and Noise Choir.

    “I think a lot of people knew that this record was going to be a classic,” says Freeman. “So that background chorus — which I wanted a lot louder, but he disagreed — included Pete Seeger and James Taylor and Livingston Taylor and Carly Simon. It was quite a star-studded cast, and one that I really should have photographed.”

    The entire article about American Pie is worth a read:
