OMG! Nancy... I would rather listen to the person being interviewed than the interviewer. Also of course he will discus his teen throb days & he's plugging his book. Perhaps you have been obsessed with David Cassidy & saturated your mind with him to be this critical of the dead. Nice thing is, he will always be remembered for decades & decades perhaps centuries & you Nancy, well we won't need to worry about your frantic lip licking, those words, & growing into a boring broken record... I'm not sorry eh!

Nancy: I agree with your observations about David although I still have a mad crush on him. He did like to talk a lot, God bless him, based on some intense tragedies in his life. Sometimes I think his relationship with his father nearly drove him over the edge and then his father died in that horrible apartment fire in the 70s. But there's no denying that David was beyond handsome and so multi-talented, and I'm so sorry that his later years were troubling. He had a good soul but a very demanding inner demon at times. RIP David. See you on the other side.

Of course the 1972 version of David Cassidy holds a place in my heart forever. 8 years old and sitting in the 2nd row at Madison Square Garden yelling at the top of my lungs was an epic moment of my childhood! I almost wish I hadn't seen all the videos on KZfaq of his later appearances. It kind of tainted the nostalgic innocence for me for sure ❤

Nancy Jones You feel like that because you watch EVERY interview, other people may only watch one or two - when on a promotion for a book, the discussion will always be the same, a bit like the set list for a concert

Nancy, Thank you! I, like you, adored him. I saw him in concert when I was about 8 years old, then met him in 1990 at a club in Toronto, where he was promoting his new record. I looked SO geeky, more of a teenybopper than a grown woman. I believe the record label brought in two leggy models to hang around, and he kept eyeing them. I could be wrong, but I think he may have eve rolled his eyes when I was the last one to have my pic taken (Polaroid on my refrigerator ;). I totally agree with you. He constantly whined and complained about how no one took him seriously as an actor. The thing is, as I watch The Partridge Family now, all I see is a beautiful young man who could really act, could sing like nobody's business AND he co-wrote some of those amazingly well-crafted pop songs. What on earth could he complain about? I believe that if he'd left due to burn out, ('retired") took some time to reflect (therapy) but still have GRATITUDE for his success, he would have built the career he'd longed for. The law of attraction states that you attract what you focus on, focus on the good, and more comes~~~ (My two cents ;)
