The Last Kiss or David In Pink

-

How many times I can write about 'Romance' album and The Last Kiss? Many.. and I never have enough. 

Also because Polish singer Basia did backing vocals on 'Romance' song. Basia started her career in Poland in the late 70s, and in 1984 she had quite a success in the UK, with Matt Bianco. And later even in the USA. Anyway she was asked by Alan Tarney to work for David. I've read an interview with her from 1985, and I know that they didn't meet (what a shame), but she said that David Cassidy phoned her and thanked for her contribution. And that he was very nice and charming. We can imagine..

In 1985 DC was working very hard promoting himself and his new music. He looked sensational, slimmer and full of energy, he had  new blond haircut, and was very sexy. The album was very good but of course the way he looked was also very important. There was an interview in a bath and a racy photo session with a known topless model from The Sun Page3..

In 1985, in the UK itself, he appeared on more than 20 TV programs. He also guest starred on TV shows in Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany and Italy. Singing 'The Last Kiss' and other hits from his album, and looking gorgeous and sensational in every outfit and every colour. Also in pink

And today I've discovered that video posted by Nancy York 3 months ago. Maybe you have seen it but I haven't, and it's a big thing for me, even such poor quality video, because I've known screenshots from that program for years, they are on the website, and I thought I'd never see it. 

Just amazing..

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
