They were putting out beautiful music that made everyone happy to be alive. Poor Karen passed so young and left us wanting more.

The Fore-runners to what was to become Captain & Tenille - The Carpenters paved the way. I don't think many people are aware of just how powerful a voice Karen Carpenter was and their string of Top Ten Hits in the mid to late '70''s (my favorite era) are matched by very few.. Appreciate them they;re a big part of our musical tapestry...
