It’s March 17, 1972. The place: New York City’s Madison Square Garden.

A crowd of 22,000 screaming teens anxiously awaits the on-stage arrival of the world’s highest paid performer — David Cassidy, age 22.

Following a warm-up performance by Tony Orlando and Dawn — who sing their latest hits, “Knock Three Times” and “Candida” — the venue erupts in utter pandemonium as Cassidy takes the stage in his Elvis-inspired white jumpsuit and starts to sing hits from his new album, Cherish, the audience screaming with delight the entire time.

Fast forward 44 years to June 10, 2016. The place: New Jersey’s Newton Theatre.

The excited crowd of mainly female baby boomers whoops and hollers as they wait for their former teen idol, David Cassidy, 66, to take the stage. To them, Cassidy is not only a singer, songwriter, guitarist, and actor, but a certified pop icon.

David Cassidy Wows Adoring Crowd at Suffolk Theater in Riverhead

Article by Lisa Finn/Patch

RIVERHEAD, NY – Dreams came true at the Suffolk Theater in Riverhead Friday night as a sold out crowd of forever fans saw David Cassidy take the stage in a performance they waited a lifetime to experience.

The concert showcased the sheer depth and dizzying range of David Cassidy’s incredible talent — as well as his innate ability as a story teller who took the time to draw the crowd into the scrapbook of his life, infusing memories with honesty and humor. A story about how he rebelled about speaking the words in the middle of the song “Doesn’t Somebody Want to Be Wanted” sent laughter bubbling through the starstruck crowd.

While he delivered his familiar hits, including “I Woke Up in Love this Morning”, “Come On Get Happy,” and a heart-achingly poignant “Point Me in the Direction of Albuquerque,” the star also captivated when he crooned standards and classics such as Cole Porter’s “Night and Day,” proving hands down that he’s more, so much more, than a teen idol.

David Cassidy’s a rare talent who continued to evolve masterfully over the years since he graced pop record album covers, and his performance Friday night was a star turn, pure and simple, as he showcased the amazing range of his vocal gift.
