David Cassidy Being Together

The full title of this book is 'Station To Station. The History Of Rock & Roll On Television', written by Marc Weingarten,  (a free lance journalist and filmaker from LA), published in 2000. And Jane has posted  recently some books (fragments regarding DC), and all of them are very interesting to read and very valuable additions to The Official Website of David Cassidy. I'd love to read entire Marc Weigarten's book, he really knows what he is writing about, his knowledge of the music industry,  the history of television and pop culture is incredible. He must have done a lot of research, he provides a lot of facts and rather no errors as is often the case in such publications. It's wonderfully written, the author has strong views on TV shows and people who created them,  and he is not afraid to share his opinions with readers. Just two fragments, "Farrell was a street-smart hustle with an unerring capacity to gauge pop market trends and capitalize on them ...

Recently Jane's published the article from  October 06, 1973,  the final part of a Jackie Special on David Cassidy in Europe. Before arriving to the UK (that was the last part of his European 1973 tour) he gave that interview (sorry I can't find the name of the journalist). We can read in it that David was already homesick, missed his home in Encino, his three dogs and his four cats. That he was waiting impatiently for leaving the TV show after the last season.  David Cassidy's interviews from the 70s are really extraordinary, they are so sincere and mature, He wanted the fans to know him, not his image. I've found this interview very interesting and touching. Let's listen to one of the first songs written by David Cassidy (with a little help from his producer). From the second Partridge Family's album, 'Up To Date', released in February 1971. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krJCpPzBEOg He was asked about the TV show, what his feelings were about it.  Da...

I haven't written for a few days (again!), I was very busy, but it doesn't mean I've forgotten about David. I listen to his music in my car, recently the songs from 'Cherish'. 'All I Wanna Do is Touch You' is the song B from David's single released in September 1971. Side A, 'Cherish', the only Top 10 David Cassidy's single in the US. No 9 on November 13, it stayed on the chart for 11 weeks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pG17uX7M8U I've listened to 'Cherish' album..many times and it never gets boring. It peaked at No 15 on Billboard, and I wonder what would have happened if this album hadn't been recorded by the reigning teen idol. DC himself had mixed feelings about it at first. "I wanted to record some material that was more me, although I knew that I had to stay within the parameters of TPF and that Wes Farrell was ultimately going to be in control of the material." (David Cassidy, Could It Be Forever?. 2007. ...

Yes, John Sebastian's song, 'Daydream', covered so wonderfully by David for his third solo album in 1973, was of course about a girl, but millions of people, not only girls, all around the world, dreamed of him, and we all agree that he still makes us feel this way..  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZBBMTrjSig It's just amazing, David's interpretation. This lucky girl he was thinking about while recording the song, and it also reminds me of the time, many years ago, when I used to dream about someone special. For our generation David's was the voice of our teen years and emotions. And he knew about it.  David Cassidy, "I came to understand, too, that even the lightweight pop songs recorded could have an enormous value to my fans. (..) I know that millions of teens, whose sexuality was just awakenng, found those songs really articulated their feelings. I gave voice to emotions associated with adolescent relationships. " (David Cassidy, Could It Be For...

Denise Ames, this incredible, beautiful woman once again amazed us and made us happy. Really life is unpredictable, who could have thought that these two would meet again and reminisce about old friendship, and a dear old, mutual friend, thanks to whom they had a time of their lives..And we could read about it and see the pics on social media. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IasELb7iHo Al Rhodes and Sam Hyman together in June 2025. We've seen Sam Hyman's pics over the years, we could watch him changing, he hasn't changed much in our eyes, but of course we've had another vision of Al Rhodes. From 1972. 53 years ago Al was a slender boy with charming, shy smile. The smile is the same. And charm and kindness, a sense of humor. Everything. Denise Ames has shared with us pics from that meeting of old friends, and she also answered all the questions fans asked about it, and I feel as I was present there myself. So we know that Sam Hyman was nervous before the meeting, and as...
