Christmas With David Cassidy

And we had Halloween with him, and after Christmas we will have Valentine's Day..

Maybe 'Spooky' first.

Oh, yes. He always knew what to do to make women scream..

For at least 2 weeks I've been thinking about writing an entry called, 'David Cassidy our Christmas Decoration'. First of all you must know that we have a different tradition here, in Poland. Yes, our streets and shops look the same like everywhere at this time of the year, with Christmas decorations, it's nice even that the main purpose of it is money of course. 

But we decorate Christmas trees at our homes at the very last moment. In my house, on Christmas Eve, when everything is ready, clean and Christmas dinner is cooked, because in Poland the most important is a traditional family dinner on Christmas Eve.  But of course I know that it's different in the UK or the USA, and people decorate their houses, flats much earlier.

I'm not a fan of the way David Cassidy is used as a Christmas decoration on many posts, pictures, (I really don't know how to call them), published on some DC groups since the beginning of December. It's nothing new of course, in the 70s teen mags used to do a lot of strange things with his photographs. Now with eg. Photo Lab is very easy to make...everything with David Cassidy's pics. With his image. And of course it's nothing bad to add a Santa Claus Hat or even a Christmas tree to create such publication, but this is one-way road. And I'm sure  next Christmas we will have David as Christmas tree buble, winking at us and singing. With AI everything will be possible.

Of course David Cassidy makes this time of the year and upcoming Christmas much better. We listen to his wonderful Christmas music, he connects people all around the world, his fans. I send and I receive Christmas cards and presents from people I've met because of David. This is just amazing part of his legacy. 

Being kind, peace and love..

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
