Anyone know more about this photo and what's behind it?

I would have loved to have heard Karen Carpenter sing Amy's "Breath Of Heaven" and/or "Grown Up Christmas List."

I used to work across the hall from someone who worked in Amy Grant's office for a long time and was well connected to the music industry. The two of us had a mutual love for the Carpenters, and she told me Amy was influenced by Karen Carpenter's voice and enjoyed her Christmas music especially.

A&M promotions guy Jon Konjoyan told me once that he was at Amy's house for a promotional BBQ. Said she was one of the nicest people he'd ever met.

If that photo’s from 87, I wonder if there could be an unused duet from Richard’s “Time” album in the vault that Amy sang on?

Since they were on the same label, maybe she was at his “Time” release party?
