Digitally remastered by Bernie Grundman (Bernie Grundman Mastering).

Ever since their version of Bacharach-David song,"Close To You" hit the charts in 1970, the Carpenters have long seemed the epitome of anti-rock. Actually, Richard Carpenter revered the Beatles and Beach Boys just as much as Burt Bacharach. So there was more of a continuum with the '60s pop/rock tradition than appearances might suggest. Karen Carpenter is simply a singer of the first rank, comparable to pop divas like Patsy Cline and the Brazilian Elis Regina. On this classic (now remastered) singles collection, spanning hits from the early "Ticket To Ride" up until "Goodbye To Love," Karen's warm, sure voice, filled with an uncanny (and sad) grace, transforms smooth pop melodies and lyrics into something deep and abiding.

Now deleted in the US, this import collection features the same 12 tracks that appeared on the US edition. Includesall the hits that garnered them world-wide acclaim, 'We've Only Just Begun', 'Rainy Days & Mondays', 'Top Of The World', 'Only Yesterday', 'Ticket To Ride', 'Hurting Each Other', 'Close To You (They Long To Be)' & many more. 1991 Universal/Polygram release.

Includes liner notes by Paul Grein.

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

5 stars A great Carpenters collection!!!
I love this album of the Carpenters. From what I learned about it, it was the only album of theirs to reach #1 on the charts. Karen's voice is so beautiful and soothing on these songs. I have this album on all three formats: LP, cassette tape, and CD. This is one of the kinds of music that puts me in a good mood. I also realized that Karen passed away back in '83. What a shame (even though I did not hear about it back then)! But, thanks to CDs, her singing voice will go on and on without end as well as the songs she sang (as well as the ones on this album). I also know that this title was discontinued a few years back here in the US, and I was glad that I was able to get it on tape and CD before it was too late. A must have for any Carpenters fan!!!

Allman Brothers Band Dreams CDs  (1989) Box Set

Singles 1969-1973 album
CD $38.49  4.5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
DREAMS is a 4-CD box set compiling in chronological order tracks by the Allman Brothers Band, as well as tracks by bands featuring one or more member of the Allman Brothers Band and solo performances by Gregg Allman and Dickey Betts. Recorded between 1966 & 1988. Includes a 32-page illustrated booklet and liner notes by John Swenson. Like nearly all box sets, DREAMS has plenty to recommend it-and a few nagging drawbacks. The set's chief shortcoming is its two conflicting goals: providing an overview of the Allmans' history, thus attracting ...

Poco Forgotten Trail (1969-74) CDs  (1990)

Singles 1969-1973 CD music
CD $15.95  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
This compilation contains 38 songs, including many new remixes from original master tapes, 6 previously unreleased songs, alternate versions of 3 others, and a comprehensive 36 page booklet, with historic liner notes and photos. This excellent two-disc collection captures Poco's finest moments from the days when they were laying down the template for all the country-rock music that was to follow. It's hard to remember, but when the Eagles first hit the scene, they were thought by many to be a Poco-wannabe band. Listen to this set and you'll hear why. The Forgotten Trail (1969-1974) culls tracks from Poco's first eight albums, as well as unreleased cuts and singles. From the classic anthem "Pickin' Up the Pieces," which kicks things off, through "You Better Think Twice," ...
