David Cassidy At His Best..........2007-01-18

This is one of David Cassidy"s finest albulms...
With the great song writers of that time including Adam Miller his voice is challenged and he replies with some beautiful songs and hitting high notes perfectly.When you listen to him sing these songs on this albulm you realise the great voice he had and why he became the big star...This guy can really sing and had the perfect ingredient of that time with the most prolific song writers I believe of the century.
David Cassidy is an actor and singer and sings these songs with the feeling and emotions they deserve...These songs were made for him on this albulm and I doubt any other performer would be able to deliver these songs in the way he does with the same feeling and emotion..A trademark Cassidy albulm with beautiful songs of a special era...All the songs are beautiful with his star quality that made him a superstar..I especially love BLIND HOPE....Adam Miller...Listen to how beautiful David sings this song with so much emotion and feeling...The whole albulm is truly beautiful...One of his first and best and must for Cassidy fans.

Probably a rush job in the studio, theres much to enjoy here.......2005-04-23

David Cassidy doesn't write much about this record in his auto-biography, probably because it was a Patridge Family album in all but name. Some tunes are a little more personal("I Am a Clown", "Blind Hope")and Cassidy gets his own song("Ricky's Tune"), yet there's not much of his personality in evidence--however, there's a whole lotta Keith Patridge here and for PF fans it's a great trade-off. Who but a '70's cynic could resist these tender bubblegum odes? It looks and seems harmless enough, but Cassidy's handlers knew what they were doing: several tracks are teenybopper bliss, heartache touchstones.

David Cassidy's First Solo Project: A Partridge Extension.......2005-03-08

David Cassidy's "Cherish" LP was a huge break out solo attempt by the artist best known for his portrayal of Keith Partridge, the perennial teenage eldest son on the hugely popular "Partridge Family" series on ABC. David's continous urge to expand his audience to a rock status gave birth to this first solo project. Yet, as it is told, he was still under strict restrains at the time by producer Wes Farrell who also produced the Partridge's musical numbers. It was said that Farrell made Cassidy follow guide lines to not overstep the purity of his Partridge status much to Cassidy's dismay but Cassidy was so enthusiastic to break the mold he gave in. Thus his first foray into a solo career sounds very similar to his Partridge tunes that Arista included many of his tunes on the Partridge compilations and it is difficult fora novice Partridge fan to really hear any difference and any of these tunes could have easily transcended over into the TV Show which was Farrell's intention. Please do not think I am easily dismissing this project however. The tunes here are beautifully produced and executed and showcase Cassidy's breathy vocals successfully. Among the bouncey Partridge-esque tunes are "Being Together", "I Just Wanna Make You Happy"(strangely reminiscent of the gypsy-like quality of Cher's "Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves" for some reason), and "We Could Never Be Friends (Cause We've Been Lovers Too Long". All are fun loving and peppy tunes but I think the standout ballads are what deliver this album such as the single release of "Could It Be Forever" and the hauntingly depressing "My First Night Alone Without You" which is in my humble opinion a great standout song beautifully rendered here in Cassidy's undeniable earnest vocal. I know many may not agree, but I feel Cassidy's single "Cherish" far outdoes the Association's original. Excellent David Cassidy rendition! Also included in the ballad department are "Where Is The Morning" but greater still are the morose but beautiful "I Am A Clown" and the extremely underrated self-penned "Ricky's Tune" but a definate fan favorite and would have been a surefire hit if released as a single instead of the flip side of "How Can I Be Sure". Cassidy's first venture into a solo career is well worth a listen and is economically priced for the serious collector as well as newcomers to the Partridge/Cassidy fold!

Someone should sing these on American Idol!!.......2005-03-04

Look, I'm a guy and I think David Cassidy is COOL! I know, I know. I can't stand "today's" music. Can you? If anyone on American Idol sang these songs, they would win regardless of how talented they are.

Blind Hope, Could it Be Forever, I Lost My Chance are great songs.
