'Yeah, he looks good..'

-

A song first. The beginning of 2023 is truly hard. Sure those people were strangers for us. We haven't known them personally, but they were important. Actually I talked about Jeff Beck on the first date with my future husband. It was 45 ago and I remember everything, every single song we were talking about. Music. It meant a lot.

Lisa Marie..We all remember her as a sweet little girl, we read how she loved The Partridge Family and visited David on the set, we heard her singing her dad 'I Think I Love You'. The money and fame didn't bring her happiness, instead a lot of pain.  It's no wonder we're so sad today. I'm thinking about her mother and her daughters. The whole family.

I've been searching for a DC song and nothing looked right. At last I've found.

But it's something we must be prepared for. It's just the way it is. We are middle- aged and our heroes are old. It's life. Let's return to David, his career and legacy. Love & Light. We are on a mission to keep this flame burning.

January 13th, 1970. The episode of a very popular tv show called 'Marcus Welby, M.D. was aired on ABC. There is a great copy of that episode on YT. I think it was the first time David was wearing his family crest ring, a present from his father.

John McMartin a popular and experienced stage, film and tv actor, and young David who played his son. Both were really very good playing that difficult relationship. Because Michael (the DC's character) had a lot of reasons to hate his father, and the father didn't know how to treat his son neglected by him for such a long time. How they were struggling to destroy that invisible wall between them. Great acting. The same year they met again, DC and John McMartin, on the set of The Partridge Family. The episode nr 5, 'When Mother Gets Married'..

Everybody watched Marcus Welby in January 1970. It was Season 1 and the show was extremely popular.

Charles Laufer: 'David first came to my radar when I saw him doing auxiliary part on the Marcus Welby, MD. He played a sick kid who got cured and he did a good job and I thought - 'Yeah, he looks good.."

  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...
