Morning Rider on the Road by..John Arehart

-

The song was written by Tony Romeo of course, and it's been on my mind recently because on Tuesday (very early morning) I'm going away for 8 or 9 days to the seaside. This time not by plane to Africa, but my destination is our (Polish) seaside (Baltic Sea) and  I'll go by car on my own..something I have never done before,  a long way and it will be quite an adventure. 

Morning  Rider on the Road by John Arehart is a mush up of TPF's version and Craig Scott's version. I have never heard about Craig Scott, his cover is very similar to the original, almost identical.

Really nice effect. Craig Scott is from New Zealand. In the early 70s he had a role in a tv music series (which was cancelled in 1974)..He was a real teen idol for a while, had one nr 1 in NZ , in 1970, Neil Sedaka's cover, 'Star Crossed Lovers'. He retired from performing in the late 70s, and achived a success as a music promoter and later became a successful businessman.

 John Arehart has several YT channels, and one of them is dedicated to TPF's  remixes. I've discovered this channel last year, when he made that really amazing, absolutely wonderful video on the 50th anniversary of TPF. This is awesome and brilliant. I love it. Great editing. This video is...perfect .Thank you, thank you so much for it. I don't know how many times I've watched it, and always with great pleasure. It's such a gift for all of us, TPF and David Cassidy fans.

Wow..amazing. John Arehart worked as an art director for many years,  he is also a photographer and loves travelling; such an info about him is avaliable on his channel, it's really worth to suscribe. There are not only TPF's remixes there..I love this one..what a suspence..

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...
