    RIP Richie Havens.

    I saw him perform at Mountain Jam 4 or 5 years ago and he still sounded great.

    His Woodstock performance was absolutely pheominal! Great songwriter and performer! RIP Richie.

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    I am loading that 2cd/dvd set as we speak. On of my all time favorites. He put the cool in tuning a guitar on stage. changing strings and shi7. LOL Richie is/was the Man! (technically everything BUT "the man" but it sounds better this way)

    Richie Havens at Woodstock was one of the monster points in rock history.
    RIP Richie.
