Maybe the song first. Live recording which leaves me speechless anytime I listen to it

This is just incredible how versalite singer he was. And a perfectionist. Such a talent, but also so much work.

1530. The number hasn't changed for a few days. 1530 fans have signed the petition supporting the stone for David Cassidy in London. Music Walk Of Fame in Camden Town. Or even less, because not only fans have signed. My sister, one of my daughters, and it was the most sweet thing and a great surprise - my 23 year old nephew. So I can imagine there were more no fans.

I know there are a lot of reasons why only 1530 and I've written about it very often. Sometimes I read :'You can't seriously think it's possible? ' or 'For David? In Camden? Never.' I always think to myself what if people only engaged in pre-won causes ?? Humanity wouldn't come out of the caves. I engage in many projects because I believe in David Cassidy, I believe that we should keep going and promote his music, even that it's not easy, and often we don't work together. For many reasons, I will not write about it. Another song. The Partridge Family this time.

It's happened to David all his life. I'm writing a book about David Cassidy, about his career mostly, of course you can't write about him without mentioning his personal problems. I'm in 1993 with my story, so the most difficult part is ahead of me. And it was such a leitmotiv of so many articles, in every decade - 'Strange, but he could sing', or something like that. 

One critic wrote about his self-titled album :'it was an undistinguished mess, all production and no songs, you had to dig in earnest to find David's thin and tinny presence burned beneth the mix.' Or about 'Didn't You Used To Be' - 'The album has little revelation. Cassidy, once a crown prince of bubble gum pop, has (or really, really wants to have) a soul..

  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...
