I loved Richie, I loved seeing him perform, watchin his huge hands covering the frets as well a his thumb. He was a great story teller. I was lucky enough to see him 3 times. Anyone remember the Comfort Zone show? That wa my first. I'll never forget the tory he told about Dylan and Watchtower. I till have the tape. Karl taped stealth that night. He' got the DATs I've got the Maxell's. Caition Jam opened. RIP.
