Richie Havens - on the turning away

[jamesdaltonjr]

i forgot how important this song was to me as a kid

[2luckyrocks]

His a cappella version on Flye Pt. Brooklin, ME. several years ago brought me to my knees

[jaruel37]

Beautiful performance of a beautiful song

[Mattygoboom]

His a capella version of this is astounding. Richie has one of those voices that gives you the chills.

[Mattygoboom]

His acapella version is astounding. Richie Havens and Colin Hay give me the chills when I hear them sing.

saw him do this acapella at the Old Town School of Folk Music, Chicago's best venue. Not a dry eye in the place

When was that? I could kick myself for missing him.

Great Song, great Spirit, God bless him

There stands a human being....

Thank you for posting this video.

I saw him do this live in 1998, at that time he did it acapella, just him standing on the stage, singing this, with no instruments. It took everyone by suprise, and I found myself crying. It was the single most beautiful musical moment of my life, and has stayed with me. He is the greatest.

[silshank68]

@jamesbrown69 It was unforgettable and I'll never ever forget it either. He is such a kind man and it showed in his music.

Amazing performance of a great Pink Floyd song.

Good Lord I Love This Man!! But I am watching this on 30 June 2007 & whom ever posted it has it dated 12/01/07.

Considering the content/lyrics I find this rather unsettling....

[jkiparsk]

Perhaps the date is given in the format used by everyone in the world except Americans...

[HARIZANTAL]

what a voice.This man brings tears to my eyes.I would like to kidnap him and get him to teach me to play the guitar like him.I could die happy then.

[locustthelurker]
