Richie Havens - RIP

Post by Ahso! »

A friend who did part of a tour with Havens in the late 70s called him The Master.

I enjoyed listening to Havens' The End Of The Beginning which is mainly covers, however, one song on the album was his.

“Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities,

Voltaire



I have only one thing to do and that's

Be the wave that I am and then

Sink back into the ocean

Nothing but good things to say about Richie. He was a wonderful man & I loved his voice. I remember him from pre-Woodstock days, singing locally, hanging out, passing the hat. Politically involved, coming to all events. A funny, loveable man. Very sad to hear of his passing. RIP Richie.
