"This album is incredible! I wouldn't recommend listening to Lives in the Balance while driving; you may find yourself speeding uncontrollably. My personal favorites are How the Nights can Fly, which can literally bring you to tears of happiness, and Don't Pass it Up, a great Richie version destined to become a classic.Richie, if you're reading this, PLEEEEASSE come on back to East Tennessee - we're waiting!"
Thank-you Richie Havens!

"I picked up this cd after I happened upon a Richie Havens concert in a small intimate venue - a remarkable experience that I will never forget it. I have been playing this same cd for a few years now and it does not fail to lift my spirits and warm my soul. Richie has an internal energy that he shares through his music. Instead of tiring of the music, I have grown closer to it. I have entered Amazon today to purchase this cd as a gift I am sure the recipient will enjoy! Thank-you Richie Havens!"
AN ALMOST FORGOTTEN LEGEND
