Oh yes, it is..

Written by Andrew Gold and Sue Shifrin, Yes, the same Sue, so please think twice before writing something unpleasant about her career..

My song for today, so powerful and emotional, the lyrics and the David's voice and his vocal range.. I've thought about it because my oldest daughter was in Las Vegas last night. She is not a DC fan, when after November 2017 David's pics started appearing on my bedroom's walls she was rather critical at first, she couldn't understand why the late teen idol from the 70s became suddenly so important for her mother. Now she knows. She started her trip a few days ago in LA, and wanted to know where DC lived there..later Big Sur, and yesterday Las Vegas. She's asked where the Star is situated. And she's found it and taken pics and it was very emotional for both of us.

I think it's so important and really amazing what we, David Cassidy's fans, have managed to achieve during those 6 years. Without any help. Love, hard work and determination. Behind every single plaque there is so much work, everything takes so much time, so many emails, telephone calls, you wouldn't believe it. Sometimes it's easier when there is an important ally. Like it was in the case with the DC's plaque at Heathrow Airport, Service Manager at the airport, Mr Nigel Clarke was a fan himself. And now hundreds of thousands of passengers waiting at The Queens Terminal can read about David and his fans. I think it's just wonderful and I can't describe my feelings when I saw it myself last year.

What a great tribute video.

There are also benches with David's name, plaques commemorate his work on stage, his concerts at Wembley Arena, even a time capsule. His photographs or posters hang on the walls of cafes and restaurants. And now we can do more and support (and I mean not only money) a historical marker for David Cassidy. It's to be placed at Colgate Park, in West Orange, NJ. David Cassidy wrote about West Orange and his life there only with love. This is a wonderful, great idea to have a historical marker in a place where David Cassidy grew up and was loved and happy.

Let's make it happen!

  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...
