Says: "Richard and Karen recently participated in the popular TV show "20/20" with Herb Alpert, which is due to air shortly, but no date is set at present time"
Maybe there are some Herb Alpert fans that remember this & can shed some light on what this was & what part the Carpenters played? Did they sing? I'm assuming that 20/20 was not the ABC TV show?
Also in same newsletter says:
"Many hours of preparation and research has finally culminated in a very nice souvenir book (now in mailing process) as a token of gratitude from the Carpenters for your faithful support during the first decade of their recording career. Enjoy!
These books will not be sold outside the fanclub, so anyone who wishes further copies for friends, can obtain them from the fanclub for $X.XX for USA members, and $X.XX for members residing outside the States. The price includes shipping and handling"
What exactly was this book? Exclusive to fanclub? I wasn't a member.
