I love Richie Havens music, he really has a unique playing style. I'll never forget when I first heard him. Probably a decade or so ago myself and a really talented guitar player friend of mine were talking about the old Woodstock festival from the 1960's and he started talking about Richie and I somehow had never heard of him. So my friend started putting on Richies music and of course I was loving it all. But what I really remember thinking the most was " how the heck have I never heard about this guy!!".
