Tower Records is listing Karen and Richard's 1971 blockbuster "Carpenters" as being out of print.As Tower recieves information directly from the labels,I would have to say that this is most likely accurate information.Although "Carpenters" was a best seller in the 70's,I think it's popularity waned over the years,supplanted by subsequent favored albums and compilations.IF you want this album,grab a copy while you can!
