Release

Cassidy's first solo single, released in October 1971 while recording of the album was still in progress, was the title track, a cover of The Association's 1966 Billboard chart topper, said to have been chosen as the lead single by Farrell after a search for a song which would be instantly familiar to audiences, but had not yet been the subject of any widely known cover version.[2] The single peaked at #9 in December 1971 (#1 Adult Contemporary), and was followed by the U.S. release of the album in early February 1972, along with a second single "Could It Be Forever". The single stalled at #37, but the album was generally favorably received and sold well, reaching #15 on the Billboard 200.[3]

In the United Kingdom, where the Partridge Family were just beginning to catch on (the TV series did not start to air there until December 1971), Cherish was released in March. It was decided to release "Could It Be Forever" and "Cherish" as a Double A-side, which quickly rose to #2 with "Could It Be Forever" receiving the majority of airplay on radio stations. The album also took off. It climbed to #2 and remained in the Top 40 for 43 weeks. This marked the start of a 3-year period in which Cassidy became one of the biggest record-sellers and a pre-eminent teen idol in the UK and Australia (where "Cherish" hit #1) at the same time as his sales in the U.S. were falling. In March 1973 (following two successful singles from Cassidy's second album Rock Me Baby) the UK fan-favorite "I Am a Clown" with its memorable spoken introduction was belatedly issued as a single, and reached #3.[4]

Cherish was deleted from catalogs in the late 1970s, and for many years remained available only via second-hand markets. The album was finally remastered and issued on CD through Arista in 2000, and remains in print. The reputation of Cherish is largely positive, with Allmusic's Lindsay Planer describing the album as " Overall...an admirable first time out and, above all, [it] continues to display the vocalist's theatrical sensibilities and performance style.".[5]
