'David Cassidy Owned And Worn Jumpsuit..'

-

There is a section on the David Cassidy Official Website called Biography. It consists of the following parts : Biography (a short one). The Early Years (just a few pics), Charities and Fundrising, Racing, Interesting Facts (a little mess there), Public Speaking, Public Appearances and Awards.

This evening while doing sth for the website I've had to look at Charities and Fundrising. Wow so many events, I'm sure not everything is listed. And I've left my work and started reading. Just amazing. The events organized by DC and Sue, 'A Day At The Races', or 'The David Cassidy Golf Tournament', Kosovo Children, Voices That Care, Stand And Be Proud... 

'Sondheim a Celebration', that concert took place on March 8, 1996, and it was to benefit the AIDS Service Centre and AIDS Healthcare Foundation. Very special, important event for DC, also because  that evening he sang with his brothers, Shaun and Patrick ('You Can Drive a Person Crazy').  And he sang  once more, solo. 'Sooner Or Later' from 'Dick Tracy', and this is sth absolutely special, his amazing, sensual interpretation. We have a great quality recording of that performence on the website..

The charity auctions, where so many DC's personal items were sold. His concerts' outfits, as they were called: 'David Cassidy Owned And Worn Jumpsuits', how well we know them from thousands of pics. The one with Aztec Figure and 'embroidered sunburst to the right buttock'. How wonderfully DC looked in it in London, in 1973, and how not attractive it was on the mannequin..It was sold in May 2013 for $ 15.000. All proceeds from that sale were donated to the Alzheimer's Association of America. You can see the list of the items, how they looked like and the prices at which they were sold.

The similar auction was on December 16, 2006..More 'David Cassidy Owned And Worn Jumpsuits' and also 'DC Owned And Worn Overalls' he had on during the live concert at the Malbourne Cricket Grounds in 1974. The velvet stripped jacket he wore during some concerts in the 70s and the honeymoon with Kay, and many more personal items.

  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...

  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...
