R&B Dance Diva Jody Watley has included a CARPENTERS medley of CLOSE TO YOU/SUPERSTAR/WE'VE ONLY JUST BEGUN on her new release The Makeover" (also included are her versions of the Diana Ross hit LOVE HANGOVER and Madonna's BORDERLINE.
In the liner notes, Ms. Watley writes: "Karen Carpenter was one of the best voice to me a pure and distinct tone. Nothing overly dramatic, but always capturing the emotion. This is the singer I've always wanted to be I loved the Carpenters and miss the innocence of the music of the era..from pop, folk, soul - the 70's had it all."
Ms. Watley's interpretation of these definitive CARPENTERS tunes is unique and contemporary. It is a respectable homage to her music mentor.
