 Herman's Hermits recorded a cover of that song as their debut single in 1964 , #1 in the UK , and #13 in the US. Here is TPF's version

This is a post on some of David Cassidy's concerts from 2013 , and that year  he appeared on stage 25 times , and in 9 cases with another former teen idol ,  actor - singer , Peter Noone.

Peter Noone became the lead singer of Herman's Hermits when he was just 15 (born 1947). The group was from Manchester , and from 1964 to 1968 they were very popular , and really huge in the US with 2  Top 1 hits there. They were known in Poland too, their songs  were still  played on our radio in the 70s. I loved 'No Milk Today' written by a teen ..Graham Gouldman , and especially 'The End Of The World' . It's a song known from a lot of  other versions , but I love Peter Noone's cover.

Peter left the group in 1971, and ..that's really funny, because  his first solo song was written by David Bowie , and Bowie even played the piano on it. 3 years later he wanted to make some music with another former teen idol..David Cassidy. I wonder why??

Peter Noone performed in musicals , on Broadway, wrote and recorded songs. He still has a very loyal fan base , his fans call themselves 'Nonnatics' , he is a great showman and a very happy family man. He married his Mirella on his 21st birthday , and their marriage still going strong. One more song.

On Jan27th, on Feb1st and 2nd, 2013, David played 3 concerts with Peter Noone , who sang his hits in the first part of those  gigs. And later that year they played 6 special concerts called ' David Cassidy Presents The World's Greatest Teen Idols : Peter Noone , Micky Dolenz' . The reviews were enthusiastic , that they were in great form,  had a lot of fun , and it was obvious that David was very happy to be the part of such a team. They were backed by a great band which included members from the bands of each of them.  Just watch and listen how they enjoyed singing together.

ROCK THIS TOWN !!!

A review :'..it was simply AWESOME straight out of the gate! (..) David still looks GREAT after all these years and his voice still shines on all his classic hits. He , Peter and Micky are a perfect trio. The 3 guys on stage were loving the show just as much as the audience was .' (David Cassidy website, Joanne. J.) .

One more time ..'I'm Into Something Good'

Kay Lenz, an Actress

Don't get me wrong, I'm not writing today's blog just to gossip about DC's private life, it's because I always admired that amazing woman, Kay Ann Lenz. She had birthday yesterday. 3 years younger than David, a few years older than a typical DC's fan.  In the 70s I heard quite a lot about Kay Lenz . She was very popular in Poland, like the rest of the cast of 'Rich Man, Poor Man'. That tv series was shown in my country I think in 1978, and everybody watched it, also a lot was written about the cast. So one day I read that Kay's husband was a former teen idol, David Cassidy. There was also a pic and I thought that it was just wonderful, I thought they were the most beautiful couple in the world. There was something very moving about Kay. I thought she was different than typical American actress. Such beautiful eyes, but her beauty wasn't an ordinary kind, not for everybody so to speak. When I was a teen I couldn't put in words what I thought a

They Said I Changed A Lot..

Let's first listen to something which was not released, why they didn't want David singing that song is a great mystery for me. Listening to his young, sincere, innocent and magical voice is one in a kind moving experience. You can just imagine David sitting next to you, with his guitar...and.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PbghG6czuw&t=6s Amazing. And of course we believe in David Cassidy and love songs. When I became a real DC's fan in 2018, there was something I used to discuss a lot with my English friend B. How David Cassidy kept changing. A completely different person in each decade. Or even more often. It was something difficult to understand for me. The many faces of David. Each album different from the previous one, different style and even his voice.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4gvxt1WgaA B. thought there was nothing unusual about how David was changing, and I simply didn't follow his career from the beginning, I didn't grow with him, I didn&#

'I Just Hated Being In The Show..'

Last week someone posted a screenshot of the article from May 1974, unfortunately without the date or the name of the paper. Written by a popular journalist Roderick Gilchrist, I think it was Daily Express. We can read that this interview took place at London Weekend Television's Building, on the day before the DC's last concert in Manchester.  And David said, "I feel like the door to the cage has just been opened. And, any minute now I'm going to be able to fly right away from my prison. I can't tell you how happy that makes me feel because I'll be free again.." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AG0hjhwKx5s His prison..Of course there have been other teen idols in the history of pop culture, but somehow for those from the 70s it was like someone put a curse on them. Nothing David Cassidy recorded later in life hasn't changed a bit that first opinion some people had of him and his music. My FB friend, Laurie Eby has written, "I researched 'New Y
