Together We're Better / Tony Romeo, Ken Jacobson

Image
From 'The Partridge Family Notebook' album, released in November 1972, the first by The Partridge Family not to reach the Top 40. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ieKGyHir3U&list=RD_ieKGyHir3U&start_radio=1 So charming and uplifting, makes me think about sunny, innocent days of my childhood. Fun and joy. Tony Romeo's one more masterpiece. I've chosen this song for today's blog not because I feel under the weather or sad, but I thought about it yesterday when I read that the event on 9th September was postponed again. That again David Cassidy would not get his so deserved stone. It's not only deserved but also founded by fans. And it was a lot of money.  Maybe one more song from Notebook https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfKv4VK_Itk&list=RDlfKv4VK_Itk&start_radio=1 I decided to go to London for 9 September ceremony about a month ago. And believe me it wasn't an easy decision, I have a lot of responsibilities and some health problems.  From the s...

Encarni and David Cassidy

Image
Encarni, my FB friend and a fellow fan twice contributed to my blog. The first time a few years ago and hers is one of the most popular entry of my blog. Here is the link to it. https://talkingaboutdavid.blogspot.com/2021/11/a-letter-to-davidencarni.html So sincere, emotional and full of love. And now, after 5 years, we've got one more entry written by Encarni, again personal, very sincere and frst of all Encarni is not afraid to share her opinion on AI and David Cassidy,  and a discussion about it it's something we can't avoid. Thank you Encarni, your entry is a food for thought for me. And of course s big hug and thank you. "Hello, I'm Encarni, and I want to thank Weronika for this opportunity to express myself on her blog. A few years ago, she published a letter I wrote to David.As I mentioned in that letter, David helped me, just as he did for so many of us, to get through a difficult stage of my life during my teenage years. Later, once I had Internet access a...

'David Cassidy The Face That Launched A Million Hearts'

Image
This is not the only time that this famous line (orignally it was about Helen of Troy and a thousand ships) was used to describe the impact of young David Cassidy's beauty. It's the title of the article published 53 years ago, on Hit! Magazine, in the UK.. The recent update on The Official Website of David Cassdy. A song first. And in August I celebrate Sound Magazine, this time even more, because it was exactly 55 years ago when this masterpiece was released, in August 1971, before the start of the 2nd season of the show. The Partridge Family's Sgt Pepper, the best album in its too short a career. In the fall of 1971, Sound Magazine peaked at # 9 on Billboard chart. 11 songs, total length of pure magic, 32:58. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRlUcMrtiT0&list=RDDRlUcMrtiT0&start_radio=1   1.6 million views this video. Not bad. "The Face That Launched A Million Hearts'. The most amazing fact is  that after 53 years some fans, now very middle aged, write exac...

'He Had The Biggest Heart'

Image
Kim Carnes said this about David Cassidy for 'Rolling Stone' on November 22, 2017. And that he had the best laugh and the best smile. But this 'biggest heart' has stuck with me.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=giMh_pBr-c0&list=RDgiMh_pBr-c0&start_radio=1 Only David and his warm, young voice made all those songs so special, he made us happy, and we still smile listening to many of Partridge Family's hits. Of course I know he was first of all an actor, I know that most of the stories fans could read in teen magazines were made up, that David Cassidy was a sophisticated, complex man, who knew very well how to use his charm. But he was kind and really cared for his fans, he had good heart, and it was something his fans always knew.  My friend Doreen Walker wrote once an entry for me, called 'David Cassidy Human Being' and we can read in it, "There is a side to David that everyone should follow and that is being kind and compassionate to other no ma...

One Night Stand /Wes Farrell and Paul Anka

or seeing David Cassidy in concert. Fascinaitng topic of conversation, and a few days ago Penelope Roda left a comment under my post on DC's appearance at the famous Pine Knob Music Theatre in Detroit. Many famous musicians performed there and David was the first, on June 25, 1972. Tickets were only availabe by mail. It looks so complicated now,  getting a ticket was available by only mail check or money order with a stamped self-addressed envelope to a temporary ticket office.  We are so lucky to have a short video of this iconic concert,  David's performance there is still remembered,  https://www.davidcassidy.com/fansite/ConcertPages/1972June25video.html So Penelope wrote, "It's amazing how easy it was to get access to David concerts then and I guess when he was in older years as well". She also asked how long did the concert usually last. During his long career David Cassidy played over 600 concerts. He played stadiums, the most famous concert venues in the US...

Morning Rider On The Road /Tony Romeo

Image
  We often write that David Cassidy was criminally underrated. Yes, he was and still is. But at least he had his great moment, money and fame, and there are still many people all around the world who remember him, and we, his fans do everything to keep his legacy alive. But who remembers Tony Romeo, who died on June 23rd, 1995. He was 56 years old. From 'UpTo Date' album. Recorded on November 13, 1970. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJy_oW2QSlA&list=RDYJy_oW2QSlA&start_radio=1 Of course I keep writing about Tony Romeo very often, difficult to find new info, but only 2 days ago I found and  listened to really amazing cover of this great song, made by someone called Larry L. He  has a fabulous voice, his You Tube channel is suscribed by over 67k people, and one of his covers, 'Pretty Woman', has more than half million views.  'Morning Rider On The Road', sung by Larry L. 14 years ago (btw how it's possible I had no idea about it) has only 4,5k views. ...

'Makes Me Feel So Good!'

We are going through tough times, us David fans, and I hope we'll survive it, maybe this will make us stronger, I don't know. Instead I know about some fans who have already resigned from following David Cassidy's groups on social media. I don't want to write about it, I genuinely don't know much. I'm happy that my blog is still very popular and is read all around the world. This week's readers are from the US, Singapore, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Brazil, Chile, India, Russia, Croatia, Vietnam, Mexico, Spain, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Colombia, the UK, Hong Kong. Those fans still want to read about David Cassidy, and I'm grateful and feel the responsibility. I have some health problems, should avoid any stress, and one of my doctors has told me not to forget about doing every day something really uplifting, something what really makes me smile, makes me feel good. How wonderful! Now I can watch as much as I want David's videos! Especially...yo...
