    A Little Dave Moment by Richie Havens

    Voice of regeneration

    Richie Havens rages on 40 years after Woodstock
    By DANIEL BROCKMAN | December 16, 2008


    Havens got his start as a performer in the Village at the legendary Cafe Wha?, where he joined a tight-knit community of like-minded artists and musicians, or "poets" as he likes to think of them. "The guy who ran Cafe Wha?, Manny Roth, he was the first guy to start paying folk singers to play, $25 a week, which was a lot of money back then! He had this little kid, his sister's kid, this boy around four or five years old, and there were a bunch of times where Manny would come down to the club and say, 'Hey Richie, would you watch the kid, I'll be back in half an hour,' and then he'd disappear for three hours! And this kid, he wound up, decades later, being in this really popular rock band, I can't remember what they were called. But that kid, his name was David Lee Roth. I halfway brought him up!"

    That's a cool story!

    Man-Dave was really plugged in to some cool stuff at an early age.

    I wonder if he ever ran into Richard Pryor ?
