"Back In The Spotlight Where He Belongs..'

-

 This is something what one journalist said about David Cassidy.  On October 1st, 1990, on Radio 95.5P LJ in NYC..David was a special guest there, and he was so happy that people loved his new music and that he was again in his native city.  He told about his roots, New Jersey .The songs from his new album were played and the listeners could call and asked him questions. And they all said the same thing - 'David, so wonderful that you are back..How we have been waiting for you..' "How we missed you', 'Just great to hear you again..'

One woman said that she had all TPF's albums and that in the 70s she'd pretended that DC'd been singing just for her. And David said : 'You know, I was singing  for you in fact'. He was very moved and happy, joked with fans, another woman asked him : 'Are you married?' 'No.." "Have you got any significant lady?'.."I have a lot of significant ladies..' She wanted to ask him for dinner..He told about the album, his plans, upcoming tour..He told some stories from TPF's set, about Simone the dog, or how Dave Madden'd wanted to strangle Danny after 47 takes in a tree hut.. One call was from Danny..And while talking with Danny he was serious, DC really cared about his tv's younger brother..

I've only started listening to DC's radio interviews from the 90s, but I can already tell you this is  David Cassidy at his best..And I've had a first very nice surprise. Timm McCoy's conversation with  DC on WKSR OH, April 22, 1990.. It was also a very big surprise for Timm, someone else was supposed to conduct that interview.  DC was  in London, they called him  and Timm was so excited, it was something really special for him, Timm was a fan from the start, since 1970..He played some songs from the album, asked David why fans in the US had to wait so long for his new music..what DC tought about his songs, was he still asked about Keith..This is a link to that interview.

Robyn Millan

  I learnt yesterday that Robyn Millan died last year. Someone published a post about the TPF's episode where she'd appeared as a guest star, 'Dora, Dora, Dora', Season 2 episode 1, aired 50 years ago, on September 17, 1971..And there was a comment about that episode that the script was poorly written, sexist etc. Maybe, no one would dare write something like that now, but the world looked different half a century ago..And I really felt sad yesterday because of Robyn. She started her short career in 1965, 33 credits, mostly tv roles - Mission:Impossible, The F.B.I, Hawaii 5.0, Ryan's Hope..But we would remember her as Dora, the girl Keith fell in love with, and Robyn, the girl David dated for a while.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmZnk9RFKm0&t=1s  In December 1971 on Photoplay Magazine an interview with Robyn was published :' He is just marvellous and really knows how to handle his success.(..) We hit it off from that first day six months ago.(..) I resp...

Love Is All That I Ever Needed. A David Cassidy Biography. Chapter 1

  Chapter 1 The Divorce David Bruce Cassidy was born on April 12, 1950 in New York City. He was born into show business, it was running in his blood. His parents were young and glamorous working actors. Jack Cassidy was 23 years old, Evelyn Ward 3 years older, both very busy with their career, frequently touring and absent. David spent his early years with his maternal grandparents in West Orange, New Jersey, just 20 miles from New York. He felt he was different from other kids, didn’t exactly fit in, his school friends’ parents didn’t look like his, they had ordinary jobs, like his grandfather, Frederic Ward, who all his life worked as a utility meter reader. David was a small child, slightly built, and had to wear glasses. During his life he underwent 5 eye operations. It wasn't easy to be the youngest, and not to have a brother or a sister. Someone to fight with, but also to play with, and to share love, good and bad experiences. He was a lonely child, brought up by honest,...

'He Was So Pretty You Couldn't Look Away..'

'and sexy in a way that is timeless.' It's from Kevin Fallon's article published on www.thedailybeast.com on November  22, 2017.  Maybe it's not the smartest thing to do, but the newest article about David Cassidy on Record Collector Magazine, and first of all different pointsview of it, made me have a look on some articles published after this horrible day,  November 21, 2017. But first a song. We experience another heat wave here in Poland, I haven't seen a rain in many days, which is scary, so maybe a song about a rainy day. We miss David on any day, and this is one of his best songs. And amazing, very moving tribute video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ6qjfK72L8 We have 42 web articles from November and December 2017, on the website, and I can't see Kevin Fallon's on the list, even that I'm sure I sent it Jane last year, because this is not the first time I'm writing about this article. I'm a former librarian, I believe everything sho...
