Finally somebody featured besides Randy Schmidt. There are other Carpenters experts out there.

I wish that someone would re-engineer those Carpenters hits. They sound so MOR and adult contemporary today.

This is the time of year they actually get radio airplay (Christmas).

Illustration of how much a decent arrangement, producer, and performer can affect a song.

THIS was the original version of "Close to You", as released in 1963 by gay icon and heartthrob Richard Chamberlain. It's almost painful to listen to.

Didn't some crazy Queen make a full documentary using Barbie dolls regarding the Carpenter's life?
