"Real- Life Feather-Coiffed, Golden God Rock Star, Guitarist and Songwriter, David Cassidy."

-

A guy called Christopher Long has written this on 'INK19', that fragment is from Sound Magazine's review published there, and reading it in the morning has really made my day.

Not a teen idol, not a sex symbol or heartthrob, but 'golden god rock star'. Wonderful. 'Irresistible Partridge Family tunes', yes! so true, or this one fragment about 'You Don't Have To Tell Me', 'one of Cassidy's all-time best studio performances. To this day, it's still difficult for me to listen to this one and breathe simultaneously.'. 

I've fallen in love with Christopher Long. Thank you.

But it's not the end of today's nice surprises. Jane has posted a new video on The David Cassidy Official Website, we get every day a new video, it's just amazing, and who knows what the future will bring (I know a little bit but I can't tell you), anyway this one is from 1998, a segment from 'Heute Morgen Deutschland'. 

In the video, and David is called there again 'a rock star', there is a short conversation with DC looking sooo gorgeous, obviously in Las Vegas, with fragments of his performances from the 70s and EFX. And surprise, surprise - we can see very happy David Cassidy playing golf and signing autographs. The soundtrack in this short video is also interesting, 'Rock Me Baby', 'Intergalactic Circus Of Wonders' and 'I Woke Up In Love This Morning' from 'Old Trick, New Dog'. And last but not least a pic with Shaun taken  on the DC's wedding day, in April 1977. So a lot is going on in this short video.

The pic you can see is a screenshot from a TV series called FBI. That episode, 'Fatal Impostor' was first aired exactly 54 years ago, on January 4, on ABC. We have a copy of it on the website, not a good quality, but it's really worth watching. Not only because of David. Again he was playing someone younger, a 16 year old boy, whom widowed mother treated still like a small kid. Really good acting. It's not a big role, but important, and I think it was obvious for everybody how talented and charismatic young David Cassidy was..

  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...
