'David Cassidy Always a Song In Your Heart'

-

 

"No matter what let's keep a song in our hearts too..' The author of a tribute video has written this. Maybe nothing special, but since I've read it, it was 2 days ago, this sentence has stuck in my mind. So let's start with a song. Today we've had the first powerful storm this season so..

Very nice tribute video. Someone has written in a comment, 'amazing arrangment of pics', and I absolutely agree. Also the pace of them, in tune of the rhythm of the song. 

And it's not easy to make a tribute video. Sure there are a lot of pics of DC, but first you should to have an idea how to show them and in what order. A few years ago I tried myself and it only looks very easy to do, so we are very grateful for all those videos on You Tube. Especially the videos with David or Partridge Family's songs or with a lot of priceless info, like those outstandings videos with DC in Japan.

Perfect sound and there are also a list of musicians playing with David on that part of his World Tour, and what a sensational opening of March 28, 1974 concert. I can't believe that this video has only 3,6k views.

But let's return to 'David Cassidy Always a Song In Your Heart' video. I've got it on Google Alerts. I have Google Alerts set on DC and TPF, and every day while drinking my first morning coffee I check my mail and what has been published on Internet about David Cassidy. 

Jane, our Webmaster asked me to deal with it a few years ago, and I'm very grateful for it. First because I can help (she has a lot of emails to deal with and running the Website takes a lot of time), and secondly for me this is very interesting  read. 

90% is useless trash from our point of view. A lot of articles are about Susan and David, or Meredith and David, and other ladies and David, or how he died and why, and the things people sell..and not only authentic memorabilia. But sometimes there are real gems, old articles we don't have on the Website or concerts set lists, or interviews in which DC is mentioned. And today I've got Lenny Kravitz interview. He was born in 1964, and he said that when he was a kid everybody had watched The Brady Bunch or The Partridge Family and that he was at school with Pat Cassidy and had known David. That was very nice to read.

Of course if I think something is interesting I send Jane and a lot of info has been included or corrected on the Website that way. But I very rarely send her tribute videos. And I haven't send her the title one, the music was not David's, just a few pics, but I truly love this sentence about David and a song in our hearts... 

Let's finish with one of my favourite tribute video. It's just one pic and the lyrics, but it's so moving and beautiful..

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
