Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973

Please seed! The Carpenters were a vocal and instrumental duo, consisting of siblings Karen and Richard Carpenter. Carpenters were the #1 selling American music act of the 1970s. Though often referred to by the public as "The Carpenters", the duo's official name on authorized recordings and press materials is simply "Carpenters", without the definite article. (Wiki) This is the Carpenters best-of collection (there are many) that gives the listener their strongest Top 10 songs in one flawless package. From the hopeful opener, "We've Only Just Begun," to the wistful closing track, "Close to You," these songs epitomize the band's lush and sincere style that won them so much adulation (and many awards) in the 1970s. Karen's passionate vocals take the listener on dizzying rides on "Hurting Each Other" and "Rainy Days and Mondays," and irresistibly pleasant ditties like "Top of the World" and "Sing" continue to rule the perfect-songs-for-the-car-radio kingdom.more… Their take on the Beatles "Ticket to Ride" is inoffensive if not agreeable, and weepy tunes like "It's Going to Take Some Time" and "Goodbye to Love" can still wring a sniffle out of the sensitive listener. This collection signifies an important period in the timeline of pop-music history. --Lorry Fleming The Singles 1969-1973 01 Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 - We've Only Just Begun 02 Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 - Top Of The World 03 Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 - Ticket To Ride 04 Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 - Superstar 05 Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 - Rainy Days And Mondays 06 Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 - Goodbye To Love 07 Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 - Yesterday Once More 08 Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 - It's Going To Take Some Time 09 Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 - Sing 10 Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 - For All We Know 11 Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 - Hurting Each Other 12 Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 - (They Long To Be) Close To You http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Singles:_1969-1973 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Carpenters

OMG! SUPERIOR QUALITY torrent! This is incredible. THANK YOU SO MUCH, keeybee! I bought this cd in 1993 and it was stolen! There are so many different "greatest hits" I was afraid I wouldn't find this exact album. Just love the crystal-clear remastering done by Richard Carpenter.
