Remember Me / Alan Tarney

-

"Remember me when you feel this way.." And today it has been such a day. Tracey Hather from our GB group has written in the early afternoon, "Felling a bit nostalgic" and she posted some wonderful pics of DC. I feel like that too.

It has started in the morning when I read about new planned films, biopics, whatever we called them, The Beatles (again), Dolly Parton. Stevie Nicks. We've had a lot of biopics recently. And there will be a new one soon, about young Bob Dylan. Will we ever see a film about David? About the time when he was a superstar..I don't think so.

Later some new/old, unknown David Cassidy's pics have been published on the David Cassidy-Greatest Fans Group, really outstanding. Robin Silva has put it the best, "Every time I see a new picture of David. I'm in love all over again". Exactly. I just can't find words what it means for us, David Cassidy's fans to see or hear something new. But how many of us are left? And the number of 'likes' of these great, original and black & white pics is rather small. It looks like most fans appreciate different photographs of David.

And I've thought about this song, so beautifully and dreamy sung and recorded by David Cassidy for his 'Romance' album, in 1985. There is a wonderful, very moving tribute video with it.

"Remember me, remember me I am the one.."

Alan Tarney, the author of this song, the famous 'Take On Me' by A-ha producer, but first of all he has written and produced a lot of Cliff Richard's songs. He also produced Cliff's best-selling album 'Always Guaranteed' in 1987. The third single from this album was called.. 'Remember Me'. The video was made. It was a Top 30 hit in the UK. What can I say. Only that it has been a nostalgic day..

Robyn Millan

  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

'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

We Gotta Get Out Of This Place / Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil

-

From 'Notebook' album, released in November 1972, by Bell Records. The song was first recorded as demo by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil themselves, but of course it's a big The Animals' hit from 1965. It became # 2 in the UK (behind The Beatles' 'Help'), and number 13 on the U.S. Hot Billboard 100 chart. An iconic song, it's on The Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll's list. I think that there are songs which shouldn't be covered. They belong to the time in which they were created. 'We Gotta Get Out Of This Place' is one of them. In the 60s it became very popular  at high school proms and graduation parties. And maybe it was David himself who actually wanted to record it in 1972. He remembered the song from his high school years and he loved The Animals. And of course he was overworked..   The song became even more popular with United States Armed Forces members stacioned in South Vietnam during the Vietnam War.
