David truly had a unique, magnificent voice. I never get tired of hearing it. His brother Shaun has praised his voice, too. How sad that his drinking took him from us too soon. RIP, David! We'll never forget you.
An American Classic! Amazing vocals by David Cassidy, with musical accompaniment by the unforgettable Wrecking Crew! Spread the news! The 70's are BACK!!!
@@pafc6993 And the string part at 6:16! Love it! Today's music is pitiful by comparison. We had some of the best music back in the 70's. I can't even listen to contemporary music. It doesn't do anything for me!
His voice was so unique it gives me goosebumps and i never get tired of hearing it. I haven't said goodbye and I'm not going to. We were so blessed and very lucky to have had the honour of knowing Mr. David Cassidy 💔💔💔💔
Perfect vocals as always. I so enjoy listening to David’s unaltered voice a cappella. I encourage you to find out how you can make a couple of CDs of just his voice alone. It could be the newest fad! Thanks for this Easter gift. I really appreciate it. I’m glad that now you do the song, then just the vocals and then just the instruments. The band and back up singers should be admired as well. 😊
David Cassidy in the Partridge family rainmaker is one of my favorite songs by David Cassidy love it a lot. David Cassidy to all his fans will always be our rainmaker. Rainmaker that’s how we feel about David Cassidy because he is our rainmaker because he makes us happy and smile with all his beautiful songs and beautiful music that he shares with us in our hearts and in our soul Please send more when you can thank you. ❤
The a capella version AND instrumental versions are each interesting in their own way. Very well produced and performed, with the unique vocal skills of David Cassidy showcased. Brilliant!
It would be so cool if they re-introduced vinyl of simply Partridge family instrumentals it would be awesome to me as a fan of the show still and I just turned 62 years old yesterday.
David Cassidy had a strong voice and The Partridge Family's music benefitted from being written by first class songwriters, very much like The Monkees.
This is what REAL music sounds like - no autotune, real musical instruments, nothing digitally altered. Hearing the vocals a capella, 2:21 makes you realise just how unique and beautiful David's voice really was. Gone but not forgotten - RIP sweet songbird that you are, David!
What a great time to be young. You had a little catching up to do in the world of music, but the Partridge Family was a pretty good start especially with songs like this. You watched the Beatle cartoons, and you never missed the Monkees. Sad, but you knew you grew up when the Doors and Jimi made you drop that Partridge Family album. Oh, and Three Dog Night, and the Byrds, and CSNY, and Motown, and Bread, and on, and on.
G, this is just breathtaking!!!! I just love this so much, that I'm practically speechless!!! This is my PERFECT Easter Gift, today! and I LOVE how you put all 3 versions in that order, it's great that way! Love hearing the complete song with David's natural voice, unaltered, then allowed to experience his A Capella voice, natural, all alone, and then the instrumental, just as you did it!! this is one of my favorites, well, to be honest, all of the PF songs are my favorites!!! LOL!!!
The Sound Magazine is one of the greatest pop albums ever made. What has always puzzled me is that they only released one single from it (I Woke up in Love This Morning). They could have had at least three more giant hits: Summer Days, Echo Valley, I'm on My Way Back Home, etc).
as always brilliant 😊 enjoyed your stories of your theatre experience 😊..... and your excellent vids about our suburbs 😊 certainly hope that this leads to you being employed?? At least get paid for educating us about Brisbane and other areas and history 😊
very underrated to the music industry 🎵🎶 amazing voice....i guess those times they were more strict about standards and slightly heavy metal music bit too much ...pity they didn't go with the version without the instruments 👌🏼🎶🎵
TRIVIA : The voices in the background are NOT Shirley Jones and Susan Dey. They are a group of studio singers called "The Sunshine Company". But you can see; they matched up the vocal ranges pretty well!
Hey g ski! I have a list for you now but didn’t want to be pushy. Will send very soon. However, I just wanted to ask if you’ve tried doing this a cappella of David’s songs as a Short or TikTok? I’m seeing voices only of other singers from obscure one hit wonder bands! Would love to have your work recognized. They just found a video of the song and put only the naked voice with it. I encourage you to try it! You started this trend!😊
Love this song, isn't it so much better with just vocals without that 'noisy' instrumentation. Just take off the backing singers and it'll be perfect! Thanks for sharing. 😊
Wow! David’s vocals are flawless. I love the unique quality of his voice. Vastly underrated artist. Also rocked THE best 70s shag cut! ❤

One of my PF favourites
Does anyone agree with me that the instrumental version heard here is MAGNIFICENT?
Totally agree.
Let us also not forget the Wrecking Crew from Los Angeles, California, the best in studio musicians.
Hauntingly beautiful and so underrated classic amazing piano and at 6:11 we will never have this kind of music ever again long live these memories!
The Wrecking Crew were the brillance behind the music.
David Cassidy had a voice matched by NO ONE to this day. God Bless David 💔xo.

This is probably my favorite "Partridge Family" song.
Can hear the beauty of his voice without all the clutter of music backing. Yes, touches your soul.

Surprised this wasn't a single release

Thank you, so much, for sharing this with all of us! (One of my all-time favorites!)

He should be in the rock and roll hall fame
just perfection
DC was indeed a very competent vocalist.
Excellent

The music is good but it's nothing compared to his beautiful vocals .❤💕💕💕❤️💕💕❤️💕💕💕💕💕
THANKS SO MUCH!!!!
Lovely video! Love his isolated vocals❣️Thank you for sharing!
Thank you, and there's some great photos in there too ❤
What fantastic vocals wow.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💕💕💕💕💕💕❤️

Beautiful
very underrated to the music industry 🎵🎶 amazing voice....i guess those times they were more strict about standards and slightly heavy metal music bit too much ...pity they didn't go with the version without the instruments 👌🏼🎶🎵
Wow...just...Wow...
David’s voice is really good here.
TRIVIA : The voices in the background are NOT Shirley Jones and Susan Dey. They are a group of studio singers called "The Sunshine Company". But you can see; they matched up the vocal ranges pretty well!
While Susan never sang backup on PF recordings, Shirley sang backup along with members of the Wrecking Crew.
The instrumental backing track on "Rainmaker" is dynamite! Great drumming by Hal Blane and superb orchestration by Mike Melvoin.

Why the hell would anyone muck around with that vocal?
They did because they wanted David to sound like a sixteen year old
Angel in blue jeans 👖✨

One of my favs..sometimes the backing vocals were to upfront....
