It's not like I know the man well, but when he played Iowa City, I

I have a hard time separate out the reflexive hating on him for being
successful from any serious critique of what he does. I like some of
his old tracks quite a bit, but the whole minimal style as it has
evolved isn't my thing. But at a certain point, hating on Richie is
as cliche' as fawning on him.
