He is our morning sunshine, David Cassidy is, we post his pics every day on many FB groups dedicated to him and his legacy. I have no idea how many such groups exist, and how many active members they have. 

Fans still want to write about DC, admire his photographs. Yes, sometimes discussions could be disrespectful, the pics coloured and photoshopped. Of course there are groups with very strict rules about what can be or can't be posted about DC, and there are also those groups where everything is allowed.

I understand the fans, we have nothing new, and David still evokes emotions. It's also easier to enhance a pic than for example make a tribute video. I've tried once, it's really a hard job. Sometimes I'm irritated by some comments, even that I know is childish and a little bit like at school, and I should have laughed..but..David is still so important.

It's so hot in Poland today, and maybe that's why I've thought about this David's song. And a very nice video.

David Cassidy Great Britain Legacy Group is the most important group for me. The first ever I've been  invited to, an unknown fan from Eastern Europe. 

2 years ago, Sharron Liddle, the founder of the group, gave an interview for my blog. From the beginning the group has got high standards, as Sharron told me, 'The main thing for us is that everything we post to the group is done with respect, love and sensitivity about David. We never discuss anything personal about David, keeping it about his talent, his legacy and about honouring his wish to love and be kind.'

It's a great interview, Sharron is a woman of strong personality, if she sets her mind on something..She is very brave and has a great sense of humor. This is the link to that interview, so moving but also very funny.

For me The David Cassidy Great Britain Legacy Group is so special, many blogs were inspired by our discussions, the things I've learnt about David Cassidy and his fans in the UK, are priceless. The  administrators work very hard to make the group, the posts interesting, and also to educate fans. 

It's because of Tracey Wright from our group, who knows EVERYTHING about the lyrics of  ALL the DC's songs, that I've learnt about the longer version of 'Hard Times, Hard Crimes' and had my moment of glory..

Kay Lenz, an Actress

Don't get me wrong, I'm not writing today's blog just to gossip about DC's private life, it's because I always admired that amazing woman, Kay Ann Lenz. She had birthday yesterday. 3 years younger than David, a few years older than a typical DC's fan.  In the 70s I heard quite a lot about Kay Lenz . She was very popular in Poland, like the rest of the cast of 'Rich Man, Poor Man'. That tv series was shown in my country I think in 1978, and everybody watched it, also a lot was written about the cast. So one day I read that Kay's husband was a former teen idol, David Cassidy. There was also a pic and I thought that it was just wonderful, I thought they were the most beautiful couple in the world. There was something very moving about Kay. I thought she was different than typical American actress. Such beautiful eyes, but her beauty wasn't an ordinary kind, not for everybody so to speak. When I was a teen I couldn't put in words what I thought a

They Said I Changed A Lot..

Let's first listen to something which was not released, why they didn't want David singing that song is a great mystery for me. Listening to his young, sincere, innocent and magical voice is one in a kind moving experience. You can just imagine David sitting next to you, with his guitar...and.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PbghG6czuw&t=6s Amazing. And of course we believe in David Cassidy and love songs. When I became a real DC's fan in 2018, there was something I used to discuss a lot with my English friend B. How David Cassidy kept changing. A completely different person in each decade. Or even more often. It was something difficult to understand for me. The many faces of David. Each album different from the previous one, different style and even his voice.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4gvxt1WgaA B. thought there was nothing unusual about how David was changing, and I simply didn't follow his career from the beginning, I didn't grow with him, I didn&#

'I Just Hated Being In The Show..'

Last week someone posted a screenshot of the article from May 1974, unfortunately without the date or the name of the paper. Written by a popular journalist Roderick Gilchrist, I think it was Daily Express. We can read that this interview took place at London Weekend Television's Building, on the day before the DC's last concert in Manchester.  And David said, "I feel like the door to the cage has just been opened. And, any minute now I'm going to be able to fly right away from my prison. I can't tell you how happy that makes me feel because I'll be free again.." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AG0hjhwKx5s His prison..Of course there have been other teen idols in the history of pop culture, but somehow for those from the 70s it was like someone put a curse on them. Nothing David Cassidy recorded later in life hasn't changed a bit that first opinion some people had of him and his music. My FB friend, Laurie Eby has written, "I researched 'New Y
