You know, I was surprised that Herb had recorded "Close To You" at all. As a matter of fact, after reading the Bob Thomas book on the Carpenters, I was of the impression that Herb (convinced it wasn't for him), had put it away and eventually presented it to Richard for The Carpenters.
Was anyone else surprised by the inclusion of "Close To You" on LOST TREASURES -- or -- is it a well known fact that he had, indeed, recorded the song and shelved it?
