A+...nothing like that voice,
By Susan Lund (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Classics (Audio CD)
No matter how many Streisands and Dions we get, there has never been a voice or a way of interpreting a song like Karen Carpenter. Last, but defintely not least, is Richard's wonderful arrangements and musicality. This duo was the best of all time, in my opinion. Sadly missed. I wish that Richard would grace us with more music.

The definitive Carpenters collection,
By A Customer
This review is from: Classics (Audio CD)
The Carpenters were a staple in pop music in the 1970's. These classic tracks, such as Sing, Yesterday Once More, Superstar, and We've Only Just Begun are pure pop gems. The musical arrangements are perfectly crafted, and complimented so well by Karen's beautiful lush alto voice. These songs endure very well. Highlights on the album include the hits previously mentioned; For all we know (it has been played at many a wedding); and Goodbye to Love (the guitar solo at the end really jams!). There are very few weak spots (among them their interpretation of "This Masquerade"). Just light the candles, pour the wine, put on the CD, and you are in for one romantic night. It is just unfortunate that the Carpenters don't receive the airplay any more that they deserve.
