Saw both Richie Havens and Harry Chapin, at different dates, in 1973 at Miami-Dade Junior College in Miami.
Me and some friends were playing frisbee out in the parking lot, and I swear to God this is no shit, Harry Chapin came out and threw frisbee with us and the shot the shit about Nixon and politics.

Richie Havens is not a complex guitarist, but he has solid rhythm and intensity galore. I have CDs of him here largely doing a lot of nice covers. Very nice stuff.Saw both Richie Havens and Harry Chapin, at different dates, in 1973 at Miami-Dade Junior College in Miami.

He was self taught and used open tuning.
His power was in his strumming.
First on at Woodstock and a legend forever after!
He is sorely missed and the world is lesser without him.

As I've always told my kids, listen for what you _don't_ hear.
What ya'll _won't_ hear on this one, is the typical CSNY _harmonies_. Crosby and Nash knew this song could not be improved upon, so they _refused_ to sing harmony on it.
They... "wouldn't touch it, it couldn't be improved upon."

Just like The Edge with U2, he had a unique style that was totally his own, that's why he didn't fit into any easily categorized style.
I absolutely love the complexity of Jimi Hendrix, but The Edge does a damn fine job as well, without complex virtuosity. For those who are impatient, go to the 3 minute 20 second mark:
