1976 Photo

[Someday]

I've always been intrigued by this photo:

Karen Carpenter

I'd love to know where that stained-glass window is and why it features a sheep! Seems to be from a series of publicity shots, possibly for the '76 tour. Maybe at their hotel? If it's here in the UK I'd like to find it

With it being a sheep I wonder if it was at a church somewhere. Maybe someone was getting married and that photo was taken then.

It's definitely from their 1976 UK and European tour, they even wore those outfits on the New London Theater show which was recorded by the BBC. The photo says that it's September. They performed at the palladium in November. So it depends on the validity of the "September" date for that photo.

This photo shows Karen arranging Richard's shirt I think before a concert of the same tour ...

As they were also in Holland at this time, it could be there ... in fact, there is maybe a 'Dutch' feel to that window. Then again, it could have been a prop at a photographers studio, but the photos don't look like official posed shots.
