David Cassidy Being Together

Recently Jane's published the article from  October 06, 1973,  the final part of a Jackie Special on David Cassidy in Europe. Before arriving to the UK (that was the last part of his European 1973 tour) he gave that interview (sorry I can't find the name of the journalist). We can read in it that David was already homesick, missed his home in Encino, his three dogs and his four cats. That he was waiting impatiently for leaving the TV show after the last season.  David Cassidy's interviews from the 70s are really extraordinary, they are so sincere and mature, He wanted the fans to know him, not his image. I've found this interview very interesting and touching. Let's listen to one of the first songs written by David Cassidy (with a little help from his producer). From the second Partridge Family's album, 'Up To Date', released in February 1971. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krJCpPzBEOg He was asked about the TV show, what his feelings were about it.  Da...

I haven't written for a few days (again!), I was very busy, but it doesn't mean I've forgotten about David. I listen to his music in my car, recently the songs from 'Cherish'. 'All I Wanna Do is Touch You' is the song B from David's single released in September 1971. Side A, 'Cherish', the only Top 10 David Cassidy's single in the US. No 9 on November 13, it stayed on the chart for 11 weeks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pG17uX7M8U I've listened to 'Cherish' album..many times and it never gets boring. It peaked at No 15 on Billboard, and I wonder what would have happened if this album hadn't been recorded by the reigning teen idol. DC himself had mixed feelings about it at first. "I wanted to record some material that was more me, although I knew that I had to stay within the parameters of TPF and that Wes Farrell was ultimately going to be in control of the material." (David Cassidy, Could It Be Forever?. 2007. ...

Yes, John Sebastian's song, 'Daydream', covered so wonderfully by David for his third solo album in 1973, was of course about a girl, but millions of people, not only girls, all around the world, dreamed of him, and we all agree that he still makes us feel this way..  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZBBMTrjSig It's just amazing, David's interpretation. This lucky girl he was thinking about while recording the song, and it also reminds me of the time, many years ago, when I used to dream about someone special. For our generation David's was the voice of our teen years and emotions. And he knew about it.  David Cassidy, "I came to understand, too, that even the lightweight pop songs recorded could have an enormous value to my fans. (..) I know that millions of teens, whose sexuality was just awakenng, found those songs really articulated their feelings. I gave voice to emotions associated with adolescent relationships. " (David Cassidy, Could It Be For...

Denise Ames, this incredible, beautiful woman once again amazed us and made us happy. Really life is unpredictable, who could have thought that these two would meet again and reminisce about old friendship, and a dear old, mutual friend, thanks to whom they had a time of their lives..And we could read about it and see the pics on social media. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IasELb7iHo Al Rhodes and Sam Hyman together in June 2025. We've seen Sam Hyman's pics over the years, we could watch him changing, he hasn't changed much in our eyes, but of course we've had another vision of Al Rhodes. From 1972. 53 years ago Al was a slender boy with charming, shy smile. The smile is the same. And charm and kindness, a sense of humor. Everything. Denise Ames has shared with us pics from that meeting of old friends, and she also answered all the questions fans asked about it, and I feel as I was present there myself. So we know that Sam Hyman was nervous before the meeting, and as...

I don't know about you, but I often find myself singing under my breath, "Hey you! It's nothing new, love will be around whatever what you do" or "Hey, stop, stop and look around somebody wants to love you". Let's first listen to the version of this song altered by John Gomolka. I love listening to it with my headphones on, amazing sound, and what a voice 20-year-old David Cassidy had. So strong, so sure of himself, like as if he was doing it for years, and it was his first recording session in his life. 55 years ago, in May 1970. https://www.davidcassidy.com/fansite/DiscographyPages/Somebody%20Wants%20To%20Love%20You_JohnGomolkaVersion.mp3 We have a lot of important anniversaries in May. David Cassidy's World Tour's concerts in Europe, which turned out to be his last in the 70s. Legendary concerts. Grona Lund. De Doelen. Shawfield Stadium. White City Stadium. Manchester Football Club. And actually on this day, May 30, in 1974, Bernadette Whelan ...

Recently someone (sorry can't remember who) has published a page from music magazine, quite popular in the UK in the 80s, called Smash Hits. In Spring of 1985 new singles in that mag were reviewed by Roland Orzabal from Tears For Fears,  In 1985 it was one of the top English pop rock bands.  Interestng read, even more, very sincere, sometimes malicious and  personal reviews. If he liked the song he could write why, with details. If he didn't like... Roland Orzabal wrote nicely about David and  he also tried to write something nice about the song, ''Romance'. This is the review, "I did used to like his records when I was about 9. I've met him a couple of times recently on Roundtable and The Kenny Everett Video Show - he's a nice lad but I think he should smile more often. This record sounds like an intro which never really gets there - a nice enough beat which doesn't really substanitate itself. Maybe I ought to write him a song." Of course we...
