I began to listen to the short clips before purchasing this album. Instantly, my mind was filled with great memories from high school, hot & sweaty football practice in August, girlfriends from long ago, my 1972 Formula Firebird, baseball practice in the spring, slow dances with my favorite girl in the cafeteria!! I had to have this Album / CD / Digital music. The Carpenter’s Greatest Hits!!!
A Very Talented Brother and Sister songwriting partnership

Few could match the hit machine the Carpenters were in the 70’s with their lush melodies and more than accomplished songwriting.
Though much is now known as time has moved forward since Karen’s death about her personal and working relationship with her brother there can be no doubt that their music has touched so many people for so many years and will continue to for those who need to hear such an angelic voice matched with superior musical composition.
Happy times

They were putting out beautiful music that made everyone happy to be alive. Poor Karen passed so young and left us wanting more.
Bobby Bee on The Carpenters

The Fore-runners to what was to become Captain & Tenille - The Carpenters paved the way. I don't think many people are aware of just how powerful a voice Karen Carpenter was and their string of Top Ten Hits in the mid to late '70''s (my favorite era) are matched by very few.. Appreciate them they;re a big part of our musical tapestry...
