Just saw this online for sale, the asking price is around $22,000... But is it genuine?

According to a Japanese "Mook," this is the list of songs that were recorded, but unreleased, or were planned to be have been recorded, but never were (some have been released since). This magazine was seemingly authorized (to an extent) by Richard, but I would love to know if anyone knows if...

I’m looking at purchasing all of the 2012 SHM Carpenter cd’s but I can’t seem to find a list of all the cd’s released in this series. Correct me if I’m wrong but was Lovelines, Christmas Portrait, An Old Fashioned Christmas, and The Singles 1969-1973 not included for these?

Hi, I've been uploading to my Youtube channel a load of Radio interviews from the UK, most of which were kindly sent by @Tom_P I'm pretty sure a few of them have never been available online before. Here's links to them all... Karen Carpenter Interview - Capital Radio - 1978 Karen...

Hi all. Does anyone have any scans of any of the Carpenters tour books they could share ? I’ve been hunting online for some but can’t find any. Many thanks

I found this book on Amazon U.K. last night. Seems to be nearly all the fan club newsletters and other bits and pieces. I’ve ordered it but here’s a link for anyone interested Carpenters Archives Amazon.co.uk

Chris Christian "Back In My Life Again" (later done by The Carpenters from 1981 "Made In America"). Not sure which year (around 1979 or 1980)?? (audio only)

I mentioned on another thread that it would be a dream to see a permanent Carpenters Museum created in the duo’s honour, akin to the ABBA Museum in Stockholm. If such a thing ever happened, what items would you like to see on display? Some of mine would be: - Karen’s Jellybean and Blue Swirl...

As read in this USA Today article, Cosmo the dog exclaims, " “The Carpenters do not have a single bad song.” Nice to see some more positive press! (All in the end credits.)

Of course, today, I'm doing a lot of writing for work. As is my practice, I eventually end up putting on some music from Karen and Richard. Often it's just background to me. But every once in awhile, a song comes on with that "something special" that makes me stop and really, really listen to...

Episode 9 at the 29 minute mark.Not necessarily disparaging of course, but not a compliment either. The series drops the F bomb constantly, but you find the music so captivating... And brief sex scenes (which are so brief, but the ramp up is obvious, so I had time to look the other way as is my...

Unlikely fans, not as it emerged.

I recently bought a set of 35mm Slides on ebay of the Carpenters appearance at the Merriweather Post Pavilion, Maryland on August 3rd 1972. I've had them professionally scanned and wanted to share them here too!

He obviously knows a LOT of great music:

Hey guys got a few requests that would help with my cassette project. Can someone post the mono singles (the ones not on the singles cd set). Also if anyone could post or send the RCA recording of Flat Baroque and early mix of Sailing on the Tide that people said are floating around? One last...

For those of you who use Instagram, we (finally) launched the officially authorized Carpenters page this morning. The handle is @the_carpenters_official. :)
