Only bought an LP as it was cheap (99p) but it's a good live record.

Wouldn't buy any more of his stuff even it was cheap.

There were a lot of "rumours" about Cassidy at the height of his teen fame.

Apparent had "travelling companion" (who shared his room)

Had to be kept secret from his adoring teeny fans

    What are you trying to say, that he was gay?? This is not a time for rumours, this is a time for paying tribute and showing respect.

      Who said anything about it being a bloke, and what difference does it make?

        I believe it was the Sunday Times that put out the story ....

        Respect?
        For death?
        It doesn't take much achieving, does it? Most people manage it ... lol !

        And an early death, through bad choices?
        Hardly deserves respect at all.

        A person who makes mistakes but then turns their life around for the better deserves and respect, far more than a person who judges from a distant, oblivious of their own shortcomings.

        I respect David Cassidy for his music and for the fact that he did not pretend to be perfect. In his last few interviews he came across as humble and gracious.

        Not a great singer (check out Young Rascals originals) but a decent enough guy when I met him in the 70s - by the 90s drink had taken its toll and he was a bit prickly and pickled.

        You have a lot to learn about the music business !

        He will have been brought into the studio by a producer,
        with the backing tracks already completed
        ... handed a lyric sheet, and told "sing this" !

        So did Monkees but once they had control and wrote songs they were brilliant, Headquarters is a terrific album.

        Yes, and without something to copy, 99 percent of people wouldnt have a clue what to do.
        It is a different talent to songwriting or producing, but it is a talent all the same and I think he was a jolly good vocalist.

        Not a bad singer, honey! - but like many of his ilk could not accept when his 15 minutes was over !

        I do agree with ITK, he had a good voice and made money from a crappy show abd selling lots of records.

        Rock Me Baby is a great song.

        His dad Jack Cassidy was a troubled soul as well - he was very jealous of his son's success while he scraped together a few (albeit very good) appearances in various Columbo episodes. Ended up burning to death by falling asleep on his sofa with a lit cigarette.
