Gutters & Havens

2008-11-17 08:57:00 by whiteray in Echoes In The Wind
 
...Havens The Great Blind Degree When digging into the early catalog of Richie Havens, it seems as if the album Im sharing today, The Great Blind Degree , gets lost. It was Havens second release on the Stormy Forest label and came out in 1971, following 1970s Stonehenge Havens had released three records on Verve beginning in 1967, and there was...

Trivial Pursuit & Richie Havens

2008-10-20 09:38:00 by whiteray in Echoes In The Wind
 
...Havens Havens Now , a 1991 release, was one of the first of his albums I got on CD, evidently finding it during a Saturday morning of visiting garage sales in the western suburbs of Minneapolis in August of 2002. Finding it reminded me that I had very little of Havens music in mp3 form (I had plenty of Havens work on vinyl, and I had a good...

...Havens ' career has come full circle. Back in 1967 he was one of first artists signed to the fledgling label Verve Forecast . Over the years he wandered from label to label, always on the move, much like his constant touring schedule over the years. He's now returned for his umpteenth album, Nobody Left To Crown , which was released earlier...

RICHIE HAVENS IS BACK AT IT AGAIN

2008-08-20 17:06:00 by BIG CED in Everything BIG CED
 
...Havens latest release, Nobody Left to Crown, as though the passing years have only strengthened the meaning of his soul-filled folk rock. Nobody Left to Crown, just released to the US on Verve Records on July 29th, attests that Richie Havens has never been more relevant, necessary even, than he is today Gifted with one of the most...

2008-07-13 13:49:24 by Keath in Rock Sellout
...Havens has a new album coming out, Nobody Left To Crown, which will be his 26th (someone check my math on that please). Whats most remarkable about that to me is how strong this guy has been going since the late 60s, still doing more live shows and tours than bands half his age (see also King, B.B.). Therefore, I name Richie Havens todays...

Saturday Singles Nos. 52 & 53

2008-01-26 09:06:00 by whiteray in Echoes In The Wind
 
...Havens performance last night at St. Clouds Paramount Theatre, the unlikely song I would have loved to hear as I wrote yesterday was Follow, the sweet anthem from Havens 1967 album, Mixed Bag . He didnt perform it, and I didnt holler for it. (Only one person called out from the audience, for Just Like A Woman, and Havens didnt play it But it...

...Havens Connections (1980 Its been a while since I posted anything by Richie Havens, so I thought Id dig into the library and see what was there I found a rip of Connections , a 1980 album that was Havens first release on Elektra/Asylum after a couple of mid-Seventies releases on A&M. Like most singer/songwriters who came to prominence in the...

Hoping For Another One From The List

2008-01-25 09:44:00 by whiteray in Echoes In The Wind
 
...Havens Ive heard some of those twice: Like A Rolling Stone, American Pie and The Weight. I also heard Levon Helm and Rick Danko perform The Weight as part of Ringo Starrs All-Starr Band in 1989 And later tonight, I may be able to make another check mark on the list. The Texas Gal and I have tickets to see Richie Havens this evening at St....

Clapton's Regrets & 'Hound Dog'

2008-01-22 09:28:00 by whiteray in Echoes In The Wind
 
...Havens They Cant Hide Us Anymore (1999, written with Steve Dawidowitz) and Eric Claptons Clapton: The Autobiography (2007). One is pretty good and one is fascinating Of the two, Ive been working on the Havens book a little longer, and it seems to be taking me a little more effort to get into it. Im not sure why that is. Maybe its because Im...
