About Richie Havens

Richie Havens is a master of bringing together rich melodies, powerful lyrics, pre-punk acoustic guitar and a touch of jazziness for a liberating aural experience. Combining Bob Dylan's lyrical skills with an earthy vocal prowess, Havens reaches near-orgasmic heights in each energetic composition. His 1967 outing Mixed Bag best exhibits the duality of Havens' playing: on the one hand, you have sunshine-filled jazzy folk such as "Morning, Morning"; on the other hand you've got electrically charged pieces such as "High Flying Bird." The high point of Havens' long career remains his electrifying performance at Woodstock, where he equaled the mighty roar of Hendrix's screaming Fender Stratocaster with his deep, growling vocals and vigorous, finger shredding acoustic guitar strumming.

Bip	Jul 5 2009 5:26 PM Richie, Even if I never get to play a set with you in the here and now, in my heaven we will jam alone by a river. The world is even harder now for a poet and dreamer. I wish there was something I could say for you to understand where I am. I hope success in music has not busied your life and your reflection, as that is what I admire about you. Through the pain I hear in your music, you have proven that there is still a heart in this world that I can relate to. Enjoy yourself with your age and do not feel guilty or that you could have done more. You, along with other great teachers, have lit my torch, with which I have silently begun to light up west Michigan. More and more, my friends and folks I know are joiniung the armed forces. Thus far, none of them have reason aside from personal economic gain. I am young, but if I can publish it before your passing. I want you to read a book I am writing called "The Garden of Gardens." Together, we will be the Gardener.
