This video was shot on Super 35.
Produced by CREATURE AKA Billy L'Heureux
Richie Havens opened at Woodstock because he was a one-man band allowing producers to helicopter him to the stage. Finally, exhausted and at a loss to remember any additional songs, Richie Havens began playing a guitar groove. The word “freedom” came to his mind, and he began singing. He added a few lines from the traditional song, “Motherless Child,” and a new song, an anthem for the Woodstock festival, was created live on stage.
