Together We're Better / Tony Romeo, Ken Jacobson

-

Very unusual Tony Romeo's song because he didn't write it all by himself. His co-writer was Ken Jacobson ( the real name Kenneth Jacobson), who according to AllMusic has 225 credits as a songwriter. Haven't found much about him ( have to buy myself Johnny Ray Miller's book at last!). He was born in 1930, died in March 2012, 2 days after his 91 birthday..

It's one of those songs that only David could sing and he did a great job. I always smile while listening to it, from the start to finish. From TPF Notebook album, twice on the tv series.  I prefer this one :

And I've thought about this song because of the wonderful gift all of the David Cassidy's fans have got from Timm McCoy. And of course it's not the first one he gave us. His 'David Cassidy Day 2018' is always with me, on my phone. 13 hours of DC's music. Now we've got amazing photographs. And not one or two. 50! And will be more!

We've already had some photograps from the same concert, taken by Autumn Bonner, with a short review written by her, and a set list. 

I'm so happy and grateful that Timm McCoy has given that amazing, entire picture collection to Jane and that means he has given them to all of us, regardless if we are on social media or not. Because not all fans are on FB, Instagram, Twitter or any other social service. I know quite a lot who are not. For many different reasons, and for those fans The Official David Cassidy Website is the only source of information about David, the only way to continue being a fan, and it's a shame that fans stopped writing comments on the main page. There are many wonderful groups on FB ( I belong to quite a few), but The DC Official Website is the most important. 

Thank you very much Timm McCoy.

PS. And PLEASE sign the petition.

Btw. I was asked yesterday why that petition and London's Music Walk Of Fame was so important. I love what a fellow fan Rose Cortez wrote when she's signed  it : 'David Cassidy was a great talent  who has continually been overlooked for his many contributions to music. It's time he is recognized and nominated.".Exactly!

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...
