4.0 out of 5 stars Great Album April 20 2004
Format:Audio CD
Richie Havens is a folk legend. If you ever get the chance to see him live, you will feel the same way. There is something special about this guy, and his cult fans know it. He never goes out of style. His concerts attract people from all ages and backgrounds. Havens' voice is still rich and powerful, and he still has the ability to crank out blazingly fast acoustics with his unique strumming style. The songs on this album aren't too fast, but they are powerful. This CD has a few excellent tunes. "Paradise" is really catchy, while "Handouts in the Rain", "Stardust and Passion", and "Alone Together" are chillout-type songs. After listening to this album, you get the feeling Havens will never lose it. He is an ageless wonder.

5.0 out of 5 stars Deserves More Than Five Stars!! Mar 21 2002
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
Richie Havens' lastest release is quite possibly his finest to date. I can't praise it enough- its timing is impeccable and most welcome with the world in such a mad state! Nothing comforts like Richie when he wraps his voice around a song. This time out, he's rediscovered his own fine songwriting skills- much like his earlier albums, most of the tunes are self-penned. "Handouts In The Rain", The Well", "Alone Together" are Havens' own, and among the best on this album. Other gems include "Paradise", and the Pink Floyd song, "On The Turning Away". Havens also returns to simpler musical arrangements here. His amazing guitar work is once again in the forefront after having been buried in his last two studio albums. Earthy percussion, upright bass, bansuri bamboo flute, Turkish violin and some additional stunning guitar work by Chris Cunningham help round out this lovely collection of songs. Highly recommended!
