I sense that too! I wonder why he didn't perform it in any of his shows, because he played others from The Partridge family . This song, and him singing it, is amazing!! Mesmerizing and electrifying!! RIP, David. Love you forever.
Oh look at him dancing with his tambourine xx how perfect he is , showing the angels how to swing it now bless him xx love and miss you so much xx RIP Beautiful man xx
He had a unique style with his velvety voice. Added to this are his skills on the guitar, drums and piano. And all this was only surpassed by his incredibly beautiful face in his prime! RIP David Cassidy, you will never be forgotten.
Could David Cassidy be anymore adorable and charismatic... just precious, a knockout, a super- talent! I love his dancing and overall stage presence, somewhat androdgynous gorgeous look. RIP, sweetheart. Great, great song!
BEAUTIFUL HARMONY, plus, Richard Pryor (God rest his soul) and Louis Gossett, Jr. were an absolute laugh riot in this one episode. Now I'm starting to see why the Partridges had more of an eclectic array of up-and-coming celebrity guest stars (whether it was Jaclyn Smith, Farrah Fawcett, MLB player Johnny Bench) more so than the Brady Bunch.
This Episode Promoted Racial Harmony & Positivity! Herb Jefferson Jr. From Battlestar Galactica ( Lt. Boomer ) Was Even In This Awesome Episode! Shirley Jones & Susan Dey Were So Beautiful 🤩 RIP Richard, Louis,David & Dave!
This song blew me away when I bought the first album and I never understood why they didn't use it on the show---My Bad!! I can't believe I missed this episode. Thanks for posting it and getting me "Up to Date" (sorry but I couldn't pass that line up.) LOL
It's a season 1 episode ... I'm watching the whole series right now (along with The Brady Bunch) ... Only saw it in tiny bits and pieces as a kid on syndicated TV ... Lots of fun! They have a song in EVERY episode!
This was the best episode of The Partridge Family. It was so funny with Louis Gossett, Jr. & Richard Pryor. Loved David Cassidy, unfortunately, he died on my birthday Nov. 21st in 2017.
Such a great song I like it so much and I like The Partridge Family it’s a great show and I also wanna say Rest In Peace to David Cassidy he will seriously be missed a lot.
This episode was the most bizarre, with the ultra-white Partridges landing in the black community! But it made quite an impression on me and, I'm sure, lots of kids.
I call when the family helped an Indian reservation. Did the Native American doing any traditional dancing. Wow that was daring to feature the Panthers in an episode .
Hmmm, dubbed in a short fiddle & horn section onto the 35mm film strip's audio track! Well, OK then; I'm IMMEDIATELY phoning up original record producer Wes Farrell & have him file copyright infringement & likeness suit, againt The Screen Gems, Corporation. (HA!) BolsaChicaRadio
jerry murphy You know they did! Laurie hooked up backstage with one of the Black Panthers.. Mrs. Partridge ran off with the guy in the tight orange leather jeans who was dancing to that groovy Partridge hip sound. . She left the kids to fend for themselves. Once they went Black, they never went back.

Musical ear. Song has quarter notes playing on the cowbell and Shirley is playing 8th notes. LOL! Great cameo of Richard Pryor.
We love you David !!!
RIP sweet David. You made so many people happy. Now you rest. We all love & miss you....Very much. 💖💖😭😭
Starr Brannon Glad to hear Susan went to Davids Memorial
I think david cassidy really was enjoying doing it, it looks like he was having fun

The PF did address social issues in a light hearted way of that era!
Adore Partridge Family - those songs were HEAVEN when I was a 70s kid.
Agreed 👍 I Grew Up In The 70’s Also!
Generation X 4Ever! 😊
Oh look at him dancing with his tambourine xx how perfect he is , showing the angels how to swing it now bless him xx love and miss you so much xx RIP Beautiful man xx
The violins really make this track!
and the trumpets!
And the horns

Shirley beatin that cowbell like it owes her money.
lol
Wojo8888 rotfl!
LOL. That's hilarious.
I just lost my tea.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣@@florafinching
"Bandala" Love it!
Absolutely electric. He's always going to remain a stunning performer! 😥😭❤
This song has the correct amount of cowbell. :)
One of my favourite episodes and probably my favourite Partridge song.
BEAUTIFUL HARMONY, plus, Richard Pryor (God rest his soul) and Louis Gossett, Jr. were an absolute laugh riot in this one episode. Now I'm starting to see why the Partridges had more of an eclectic array of up-and-coming celebrity guest stars (whether it was Jaclyn Smith, Farrah Fawcett, MLB player Johnny Bench) more so than the Brady Bunch.
As far as the old timers like Ray Bolger and George Chakaras, they were personal friends of Shirley Jones.
+James Berman INTERESTING, guess it pays to be connected in Hollywood, thanks for the tip :)
Incredibly under-rated "group." Like 'em or not, the Partridge's had a ton of wonderful songs. Bandala is one of their best.
Haven’t heard this song since the 70’s, yet it was always there. Always nice to reacquaint oneself with a great song.
never realized it when I was younger but what a dish Shirley Jones was! my favorite partridge song alongside I think I love you
My mother was the same age as Shirley Jones. Both beautiful women inside & out!
My favourite episode and my favourite Partridge song. What the hell happened to great television?
This Episode Promoted Racial Harmony & Positivity!
Herb Jefferson Jr. From Battlestar Galactica ( Lt. Boomer ) Was Even In This Awesome Episode!
Shirley Jones & Susan Dey Were So Beautiful 🤩
RIP Richard, Louis,David & Dave!
David had such an amazing voice 🤗
THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY IS STILL MY FAVORITE TV SHOW.
Lou Gossett, Jr. and Richard Pryor in this episode! Amazing!
Geesus....David Cassidy sounds good singing any kind of song! I bet he worked up a sweat during this song. He was doing a lot of moving!
He was having fun
David Cassidy was a real artist, and he was having a hell of a lot of fun here.
A great song in the great 70's!!! Thank you!!! Sounds Amazing!
Hey Mr. Tambourine man!! So cute putting all his soul into this unique fun song ;-)
This song blew me away when I bought the first album and I never understood why they didn't use it on the show---My Bad!! I can't believe I missed this episode. Thanks for posting it and getting me "Up to Date" (sorry but I couldn't pass that line up.) LOL

This is the "afro thing" song that Keith was talking about working on earlier
More cowbell I need more cowbell SNL. RIP David Cassidy
😁🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 More cowbell I need more cowbell SNL. That SNL skit was hysterical!
joyful, energetic and great song full of the promise. LOVE IT
This was the best episode of The Partridge Family. It was so funny with Louis Gossett, Jr. &
Richard Pryor. Loved David Cassidy, unfortunately, he died on my birthday Nov. 21st in 2017.
Rest In Love David Cassidy.
🙏🏼❤️😔🌹
My favorite song by the Partridges. Loved growing up in this era!
I remember this episode!
I was wondering if you did.
And I quote the great Christopher Walken: "Shirley, we need more cow bell!"
The look on Shirley's face is priceless.
Shirley is playing some mean cowbell here.
Actually, I "think" studio session musician Hal Blaine, wanked on that cowbell. Sorry for "Raining On Everybody's Parade Here".

Such a great song I like it so much and I like The Partridge Family it’s a great show and I also wanna say Rest In Peace to David Cassidy he will seriously be missed a lot.
It’s cool when the members of the Afro- American culture club walk up and protect the two guys they’re badass cool
This episode was the most bizarre, with the ultra-white Partridges landing in the black community! But it made quite an impression on me and, I'm sure, lots of kids.
Thank you SO Much for uploading this!!! I LOVE This song to! :O)
love this song
Hey me tamberine man so cute .putting your soul into the music
to quote a famous quote....."I gotta have more cowbell!!!"
My Favorite scene at 2:21 when that black guy that danny went to, to get appeared when heavy & his goons & I laugh
Agreed. One of the best parts of this episode.
Bring it, Baby!
Ginny L. Groovy , baby!! Groovy!!
I'm going to need more cowbell!
Sounds very "Three Dog Night "
I did not recognize Lou Gossett with hair.
I call when the family helped an Indian reservation. Did the Native American doing any traditional dancing. Wow that was daring to feature the Panthers in an episode .
Guess what? I got a FEVER!
tuttt99 There's only one prescription!!!
More cowbell Shirley.
Shirley Jones was getting down with the cowbells. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
rip david
Not many people know this but Richard Pryor helped cowrite this song.
Not many people know this, but the little dude in the blue sweater was Usher. Wow!! A man about show business even then.
Impossible. Usher was born on 1978.
your right usher wasn't in this cause like you said Gumball LastRally usher was born in 1978 and so he wasn't alive then during the partridge family!
1:21 LOL!!!!!
I never knew Richard Pryor co wrote this song.
OH WOW, me neither! Thanks for the info!
I'm not sure what I just when through.
Something really cool.
Fuck it up David!!! 💃🏿🚶🏾♂️🕺🏽💃🏿
Richard Pryor and the black panthers.....lol....fuckin fun! !!
more cowbell!
🤩⭐🌟⭐🌟⭐🌟⭐🌟⭐🌠
Sounds a touch fast
Is that Usher in the blue sweater ??
no usher wasn't even born yet so no it is not him!
No. Get a clue.
This is the propaganda that turned me into a LIBRUL...and no regrets!
Hmmm, dubbed in a short fiddle & horn section onto the 35mm film strip's audio track! Well, OK then; I'm IMMEDIATELY phoning up original record producer Wes Farrell & have him file copyright infringement & likeness suit, againt The Screen Gems, Corporation. (HA!)

Do you suppose Laurie or Mrs. Partridge came down with...jungle fever...sometime during the day ?
jerry murphy You know they did! Laurie hooked up backstage with one of the Black Panthers.. Mrs. Partridge ran off with the guy in the tight orange leather jeans who was dancing to that groovy Partridge hip sound. . She left the kids to fend for themselves. Once they went Black, they never went back.
expertinmovies Funny!!

Not a liberal and certainly not a race baiting little weasel either. I am done with you now go get that frying pan.
Little
Move on uptown to a better way of living. I wonder if this was the inspiration for George and Weezy.
Too fast!
this is clearly sped up. David sounds like a chipmunk and the music is just zooming along.
They are singing BANDALAYA ! Thats not the songs title of the woman they are singing about. Good song, but OFF!
Stephanie Foulger I think the D was just extra hard - like Banda-ala.
