Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars THE UNFERGETTABLE BROTHER AND SISTER!!!
THIS DVD IS THE COMPLETE STORY OF THE CARPENTERS. IT'S A WONDERFUL AND BRILLIANT PORTRAIT OF HOW THEY STARTED OFF AND THEIR DEVELOPING CAREER AS SUPER STARS, THEIR INVITATION TO THE WHITE HOUSE AND THEIR SUCCESS; KAREN'S ILLNESS AND HER DEATH, ALL TOLD BY RICHARD CARPENTER. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ITEM IF YOU STILL SWAY TO THEIR MUSIC AND SONGS. YOU WILL NOT REGRET HAVING BOUGHT THIS WORK OF ART. LONG LIVE THE CARPENTERS!!!

5 stars SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL
A VERY TOUCHING TRIBUTE TO THE CARPENTERS THAT WAS RELEASED ON THAT THING CALLED A V H S . WHATEVER THAT IS. THE MUSIC ON HERE IS NOT IN 5.1 BUT IT SOUNDS GREAT AND CLEAR AS A BELL ANYWAY . A MUST FOR CARPENTER FANS . THE ENDING ALONE IS WORTH THE DVD WHEN THEY PLAY YESTERDAY ONCE MORE AND SHOW NOTHING BUT INCREDIBLE ( SOME HARD TO FIND IF AT ALL ) PICTURES OF KAREN . SHE WAS A AMAZING BEAUTIFUL WOMAN AND THIS DVD SHOWS A LOT OF THAT AND SOME OF THE BAD 2 WHEN SHE GOT SICK -THERES A KIND OF HUSH. THE WORLD IS SADDER W/O THIS VOICE.

Close To You: Remembering The Carpenters review
CD $15.99  4.8 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
Originally released as 2 separate albums, CHRISTMAS PORTRAIT and AN OLD-FASHIONED CHRISTMAS. Reissued concurrently with the delayed issue of Karen Carpenter's solo album, this import CD contains both Carpenters Christmas records, 1978's CHRISTMAS PORTRAIT and 1984's AN OLD FASHIONED CHRISTMAS. Both albums are remastered and appear in their entirety on CD for the first time. Purists should note that the 1984 release was completed after Karen's 1982 death and is comprised of outtakes from the 1978 recording sessions and instrumental performances (including selections from The Nutcracker Suite) performed by Richard Carpenter. Highlights of the set include traditional hymns and carols, Christmas pop standards and other seasonal tunes. Perhaps the set's highlight is Karen's wistful yet sultry rendition of Johnny Mercer's "What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?" The ...

"Just about the best Hollywood musical of all time," wrote Pauline Kael about SINGIN' IN THE RAIN. After years of honing his skills on the vaudeville stage, hoofer Don Lockwood (Gene Kelly) has finally reached the top and become a swashbuckling star of the silent silver screen. Then the self-satisfied celebrity has his confidence shattered when ingenue Kathy Selden (Debbie Reynolds) dismisses film actors as "shadows" without substance. After getting over the insult, he falls hard for her--much to the consternation of his costar, the sexy, selfish Lina Lamont (Jean Hagen), who wants Don all to herself. But Don has career troubles too. The wild popularity of THE JAZZ SINGER has studios scrambling to change from silent films to talkies, and Lina's shrill voice ...
