I miss Richie Havens. He was a personal family friend & I've known him since I was a young boy. He had a generous soul, was a kind spirit, and a champion for ALL people. His voice will never be equaled. The world lost a tremendous inspiration & beautiful man. -V-

A BIG HEARTED MAN, a quiet man full of GRACE, I knew him too and he told me about "The Hollow Earth"-Oh Richie, your heart just couldn't take anymore of the controllers hurting this beautiful planet and all living beings and the apathy blanketing humanity-his heart just gave out. ... too soon, too soon

I saw him at the Old Town School of Folk Music and he was terrific! He stayed to sign autographs for a looooong line of ppl, bless his heart. He is one sweet guy. How many ppl have you ever met who exude gentleness? He's one of the few.

To those of you seeking perfection Oh Lord it's not a long, long way to go All you need is a bit of reflection Just might seem like changing direction right now Don't go around taking up no collections On your way down There's nobody left to crown What if politicians were all good guys Oh Lord don't we wish they were We would not be so dependent On courts of laws that make us all feel like defendants sometimes If we want freedom we've got to amend it On our way down There's nobody left to crown Be it ever so humble There's no place like home Home home on the range Where the fear and the antidotes play Where seldom is heard An encouraging word And our leaders do nothing all day What if they gave an election And nobody came to vote The system it needs a bit of correction Just might seem like changing direction right now As it stands we don't even make the selections And to get into Heaven we even need a connection On our way down There's nobody left to crown Nobody left to crown Nobody left to crown Nobody left to crown Nobody left to crown

Richie Havens is a National Treasure and an International Treasure. It is unfortunate that we do not seem as a culture to appreciate that the art of artists like Richie as they grow older - the richness of voice and imparted wisdom during performance - just gets better, deeper, and more powerful. The up-side is when you do see Richie it will probably be in a relatively small and intimate venue!

Hai trovato le parole giuste per descrivere il modo di suonare/cantare di Richie Havens: "come il battito del cuore di Madre Terra"... è esattamente così...
