Richie Havens had a birthday last week. He is a young 72 years old!
My first meeting with Richie was at the Wisconsin Music Festival in 1972 in his dressing room. I remember that he was so nice to me that night. I was just a young 18 year old photographer wandering around a bunch of rock stars!
Every time I saw Richie he was singing, playing guitar and practicing. He was having fun with Kris Kristofferson, Linda Ronstadt, Ramblin Jack Elliott and others.
Enjoy a few photographs from 1972 and Happy Birthday Richie.
Thanks,
Rich Zimmermann
