Daydream. Jazz Version

-

Today everybody congratulate David's son, Beau, on his engagement to his longtime girlfriend, Stephanie. Somehow my interest in DC doesn't concern private life of members of his family. Of course I wish him the best, we know how David loved Beau, and I can also imagine that it wasn't easy to be DC's only son. For many, many reasons. It's great that Beau has found his own way and he looks so happy. Anyway when I've read about his engagement I thought about this song.

I've been searching for something on YT today and came across the video called 'David Cassidy Daydream Jazz Version', and on that channel we can also find David's songs without music, only his vocals. 

We don't have new songs so we do what we can with the old ones. John Gomolka has altered the original tracks of some The Partridge Family's songs to better reflect David's true voice, and I think the results he's got are very interesting. I'm not so convinced about the versions limited only to DC vocal, I don't know what to think about them.. but I really like that jazz version of 'Daydream'.

It's really nice, I agree with the opinion from the comments that David's version from 'Dreams Are Nuthin' More Than Wishes' was a little bit over produced. 

And one more video which really has brightened my day. I haven't seen it for some time, so wonderful. Hard to imagine, but it was recorded 30 years ago. We love you Mat Gurman, forever grateful for this one.

  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...
