Carpenters at London Palladium
"Compared with the almost clinical and perfectionist act provided by the duo on a previous visit, the
Carpenters went all out November 22, to pull out a surprise-packed spectacle full of gimmicks, yet making
sure that the musical side was as super as ever."
---
"In the past, the duo as been accused of appearing almost too good, too perfect, to be true. In providing some of the finest
popular music of the day, they have appeared somehow dehumanized."
---
"Karen Carpenter's voice remains an instrument of perfect pitch and clarity--particularly when showcasing the duo's string
of never-ending hits.."
---
"Quite simply, the show turned out to be one of the most entertaining and professional highly-glossed, but flexible, pop
performances to hit the London Palladium in years. It was genuine show business of the highest order."
