David Cassidy first came to London in February 1972 to promote his tv show and his first solo album 'Cherish'. It was expected that maybe 200-300 fans would greet him at Heathrow..thousands screaming and very excited teens appeared. It was madness. His popularity was compared to the second coming of the Beatles.

DC, 'They had me doing press interviews through my whole stay in England, from the moment I'd wake up each day until I went to bed. In a week I became a big national name. It was overwhelming. My album went right to the top spot.'

Not only press interviews. Here is 21 year old David Cassidy and his first visit at the BBC  TV Centre, His first English tv interview. Over the next 40 years he will be there hundreds of times.

It was the beginning of the most amazing story of love. David Cassidy and his fans. David Cassidy and London. He was loved and cherished here. He was always welcomed as the dearest friend. He worked and lived in that amazing city he called his second home. He was a superstar in London. Always. He was happy here and had many friends.

Music Walk Of Fame in London has a Criteria for those who may be included, Music Icons, Innovators, Inspirational, Visionaries, Unsung Heroes. David Cassidy meets the Criteria on more than one count. He deserves that Stone. 

What more I think we owe it to him. He had a huge impact on lives of millions, and still his music brings love and happiness and it hurts how that wonderful, fabulous singer was pigeonholed, how he was trapped by his image. A teen idol..a singer for little girls. We know how unfair it is. It's enough just to listen..

We are just at the beginning of that long road. But we also have had communication with The Music Walk Of Fame and they are aware of our petition ! We do know that David could eventually be in the running for this accolade.

It's very important to keep the petition going.

Every single signature counts. 

And we are not alone. 



Anthea Turner, Keith Atack, David Hamilton and Tony Prince. And Mike Read. Thank you so much to being with us, David Cassidy's fans. I'm sure that more famous journalists and musicians, famous fans join us.

But you are the most important. David Cassidy's fans from all over the world, those who became fans in the early 70s and those like me who became real fans after he died. 

We listen to his music every day, we talk and read about him. He is still with us.

  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

Image
  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...
