David Cassidy was a teen heartthrob before he became a TV star on "The Partridge Family" in 1970, and today, he's still performing across the United States. On Saturday, he'll perform his music including the No. 1 hit "I Think I Love You" at the Wolf Den at Mohegan Sun Casino.
Before being cast in "The Partridge Family," Cassidy had already earned fame with "I Think I Love You," which became the best-selling record of 1970, and had landed on the cover of various teen magazines. Five years later, he earned a Grammy nomination and was performing sold-out concerts in stadiums and arenas around the world - even filling Wembley Stadium in London six times in three days in 1973.
