Richard hit the nail right on the head. Karen had a timeless voice and I think history will prove her voice will be heard centuries from now. You can't deny talent.
Yes many in the 70s dissed the carpenters or even the people who loved their music, but Richard and Karen get the satisfaction of knowing that today their music is being listened too, loved and judged as being some of the best ever. The respect for them has grown because their talents were truly monumental and have stood the test of time. I know the more i listen to their music the more i hear the details of the arrangements that give the songs such depth and emotion and present Karen’s voice in the best way. today the carpenters are appreciated by everyone in the industry and anyone who takes the time to listen.
A new documentary done right needs justice. Richard's right. I'm 38 and I sit listening and watching them getting my mind blown on how talented they are. Awe inspiring. Just amazing. What a gem. 💎
Great interview, you're so right Richard - "it was a timeless voice". Something very special, how lucky we are to have the recordings for future generations.
You know? My grandma is the one responsible for introducing me to the Carpenters. I’m forever grateful and thankful that she had me listen to the first Carpenters song I listened to which is Top of the world. I like how the chorus of that song, ascends in tone, “I’m on the top of the world looking,” and it kinda descends in the tone with “down on creation,” it felt like a roller coaster experience to me. I really do think that’s the main reason I got hooked to the Carpenters. I love the Carpenters, they have a special place in my heart, and that’s really all there is to it, I mean, it became history. Before you know it, I’ve been singing, listening, watching, reading, and hearing anything Carpenters related.❤️.
@@MarcusStaAnaBurSelF Yeah and I'm grateful to your Grandma for introducing you to the Carpenters.It's really nice to know that after I'm long gone the next generations will continue to listen to The Carpenters.They can't be duplicated so we have to keep this going!
This is the music that I carry to my grave. Thank you for being part of my life, from childhood, through the years, gilding melodiously along the sunset. I am so thankful to have known the carpenters.
I bought their first major album as a high school student and saw them at a concert in 1971. I have always appreciated both of them and think their version of "Close To You" is the most beautiful song ever.
Thank You for sharing this with the fans.I love to hear Richard speak about anything Carpenters.It is nice of him to still do interviews.Some celebrities might not want to be bothered.Thank You Richard! True fans and ppl that appreciate true talent know what an impact you and Karen had and continue to have on the world of music and entertainment.Their will always be critics that skim over true talent and praise very little talent so who would want any type of praise from them in the 1st place.The ones with true taste in music have always praised the talent of Richard and Karen Carpenter.That is what is most important.There has never been another Richard and Karen Carpenter.That speaks for itself.
Sweet interview. Hmm. Richard's a very down to earth, likeable guy, despite being so incredibly talented. Very appreciative of his illuminous efforts with Karen, whose voice, was and is, the best ever.
Already have this book. It's quite interesting of a book with a lot of pictures, most of which looks a lot more detailed in the book as if you were looking at the original photo. Worth every penny if you a Carpenters fan. Books so far focuses on their work, their ways they got to creating the fascinating products.
@MarcusStaAna: I totally agree with you! I'm also very sad that Karen isn't with us anymore... but Richard is!!! Thank God! He has such incredible abilities... it's amazing! And Karen lives on in him too! I have always to smile when I see how similar Richard is to his sister. They have a similar sense of humor. And often the same facial expression. I recently saw an interview with Richard where he was asked about his 75th birthday. When he reacts, I can hear and see Karen. It is fascinating, how similar they are. What Karen had unique in her voice, Richard has in his arrangements and his incredibly warm piano playing. I come from Germany, here The Carpenters weren't nearly as successful as in other countries, which I will never understand. So I'm all the more grateful that I grew up with Americans who lived with us and brought the Carpenters to us. My older brother also heard the Carpenters. I was 5 or 6 years old when I first heard about the Carpenters. Thank God. With their music they absolutely meet my understanding of music again and again. Richard is still alive and is obviously fine. I wish him that it will stay that way for a long time. The Carpenters have received far too little recognition for their great music. When I see, for example, what other artists get tons of Grammys for ... the Carpenters deserve a lot more! One should already honor and appreciate the artists during their lifetime! It is their deserved reward for an excellent job!
I completely agree with your statement. The two really do compliment each other in a way, you feel as though every simplicity is shown on the presentation, yet you watch it again and you notice how the two siblings are, in terms of adding very intricate details to their music. I tell ya, in a hundred years from now, The Carpenters will live on as classics. When I grow up, I want to be able to play this music with my kids. Passing them onto the next generation is what keeps their legacy and brilliance important! They deserve a huge amount of Grammys.
First time I heard the Carpenters was 1970 and now 2022 I'm buying all their albums on eBay, I just think they sound so great.. they are just timeless.. and Karen is beautiful
I was in 6th or 7th grade when Close to You came out. It was one of those songs you waited for on top 40 stations to recycle around so you could sing along with it.
Bill, you continue to be one of THEE BEST documentors (if that's even a word?) here on You Tube, when it comes to Richard & Karen. It is to our advantage to keep hearing & watching your pieces & captures, here on this format! BolsaChicaRadio
"I Can Dream Can't I", a 1938 ballad standard, is on that album, with orchestration by 50s bandleader Billy May. I like to imagine that Linda Ronstadt heard that track and got the idea to cajole Nelson Riddle out of retirement to arrange some standards for her...no idea if that could be true, of course. No one could sing a big band era ballad like Karen. No one. Ever.
Yay, this was terrific Billy! You always share the really cool stuff with us C's fans and I really appreciate it. Homerun again kid and to Rich (if you even see this missive) GREAT job on the book, I'm halfway in so far and already exhausted by your insane schedule on the road. Damned managers.
I absolutely agree with Richard, Karen's voice was certainly "timeless"! Like the Beatles, she was a one off, broke the mold, not only voice, but as a singing talent as well! And as Richard has said many times, that her ability as a drummer gave her the timing need to be not just a singer, but a GREAT singer! A very rare talent indeed. When Joe Osborn first heard her sing in his garage studio at only 16 all he could say was "Oh my God!" And this was a guy that had heard many of the greats and was not that easily impressed!! He was IMPRESSED!!
@@Mr.56Goldtop You're welcome. To my ears, the only other singer that came anywhere even remotely close to sounding like Karen was Akiko Kobayashi, with whom Richard has collaborated...I have a few albums of her plus any music and video I've been able to find of Richard and Karen.
@@bobdavis4848 Yes, I' saw her sing for Richard in Japan. There was a fantastic video made in Japan in the early 90s I think, where they digitally placed modern Richard into the Top of the World video as he was originally. It was quite amazing and looked so real! But now I can't find it anymore on UA-cam. Too bad.
@@Mr.56Goldtop That sounds wonderful; I hope it will reappear on youtube. I suppose you mean an alteration of the video collection video where Richard goes "dowwwn" into Karen's mike and then looks away like stifling a laugh. I played Akiko-san's song "China River" on college radio various times. Her song "How Could I Ask For More" was promoted to the first commercial radio station I work at (lite AC) , but they were too numbers-fixated to play it. I've enjoyed visiting Japan 27 times. Once there in a Lawson Station convenience store, in between the Japanese music, I heard an instrumental of "I Need To Be In Love."
I bought my book at Barnes Noble in Savannah Georgia. Love it. The Carpenters were awesome and made my childhood so special. They played in Savannah but i was a toddler and too young to go but my older siblings got to. My mom loved them.She sang close to you to me and my twin when we were babies. Later Santa brought me a organ for Christmas with sheet music to Close to you. I was 7 years old . lol
Anyone who knows music and industry experts definetly recognise and appreciate the talent, not at the time but they have in the long run, the old saying 'Talent will Out in the End'.
As músicas os arranjos a voz de Karen são lindas eu ouço todos os dias fico impressionada com as letras das músicas você entende tudo diferente de outras músicas 😍
Richard s description of his being able to present them, is uncanny and exquisite. Consummate musicians!!! Beyond the pale, phenomenol the vicious aspect, we know that in 2024. Especially w politucs!! The libs can t handle losing!!
Her voice was in a class by itself and when a list of the greatest singing voices of all time is composed, it sure won't take long to call Karen's voice
Karen did have the greatest singing voice ever. How could the critics have been so deaf? One would think that the quest of a critic is to find profound talent and relish it. What a waste of a profession! We will love Karen until we join her for eternity!
There's the legacy of the Carpenter's music and there's the question of why no one ever step in to save KC especially since she is not only as talented as RC but is also special.
Well some did...but it was not known what was needed. Plus Karen was a very smart, deceptively tough woman who seems to have believed she had things under control, and resisted any advice that suggested the contrary...
it was a very, very...complicated situation. Part of the tragedy was that in a way the help worked too well...too fast. She put on too much weight in too short a time and had a big meal the evening before. The sudden weight gain was too much stress for a heart that had been working for lighter body for so long. Also experts were not as overall intelligent about anorexia nervosa factors and risks then as they are now.
Richard is right there is no way that one can confine Karen's voice to the seventies. Had she lived I like to think that they might have tried covering some songs done by some of the big band singers of days gone by. I think that as they went further into the eighties they might have had to make some adjustments to their sound and Karen's voice would have carried them forward. I heard him say in an interview regarding the time of her passing " Hell, we were just getting started." It must weigh on him a little bit the thought of the music they could have made.
Karen was so timeless and incredibly talented- that is why Better Midler said all those horrible things. Bette's ego and insecurity got the best of her- she was so hurt that Karen's performance of "Superstar" totally took the song into the stratosphere.
Bette didn't write Superstar either, of course, Leon Russell and Bonnie Bramlett did. But it did come to Richard's attention when Bette performed it on TV. She'd sung it before Karen did and must have felt a kind of ownership of it. (By the way, the famous hit single version of Superstar uses what had been Karen's work lead take of the song. It was her first singing of the song...ever. Not take one on the day. The first time she sang the song. That's how good One Take Karen was...)
@@stevetournay6103 Bette did have a childish ownership over it, which is why she was so awful to Karen. Bettes talented, but her ego and her need for validation at that time was excruciating. In her mind, how could anyone possibly deliver something better than what she did- but Karen nailed the raw emotion of the song and it had a sort of innocence to it that really struck a chord
I’m not sure why he seems so bitter. Didn’t he have world fame? I’m confused. Anyway, I absolutely loved Karen’s voice. Great interview Tom, and glad you ended it a bit early! ;)
I dont think he sounds bitter. I think he is pointing out how their record company didnt know how to market them. A brother and sister team, terrible album covers, confusing people if they were a married couple and not a brother and sister. I think the pressure of karen what seemed to be low self estime helped lead to her anorexia. And today with everything with the internet, it probably would have been worse. She did have a timeless voice and sounded terrific on lesser know songs they covered......ie....."i can drean cant i"...."ordinairy fool" etc. where her voice has such a wonderful tone. Her phrasing and diction were perfect. And great breath control on the long phrases.
Richard said in another recent interview that he did not like Sonic Youth's cover version and that he did not understand it. But he said he would not declare it was bad.
Richard hit the nail right on the head. Karen had a timeless voice and I think history will prove her voice will be heard centuries from now. You can't deny talent.
She had the greatest soulful pop voice of all time. Unrivalled
Karen Carpenter, the best singer of all time.
Agree
How can you not like Richard Carpenter? What a talented musician/ arranger and wonderful person is he. A national treasure!
This is marvelous. I’m forever grateful that Richard is still here with us.
For sure.

Richard, you are so right ! The world NEEDS today what you both brought to the world. Millions love you and Karen! Thank you!
Richard Carpenter is and has always been an amazingly talented man, musician. This was a wonderful listening to him.
This is the music that I carry to my grave. Thank you for being part of my life, from childhood, through the years, gilding melodiously along the sunset. I am so thankful to have known the carpenters.
Glad to see Richard getting some attention. Karen was the voice. Richard was everything else. Simply brilliant.
Richard, you and Karens music has stood the test of time and will continue to do so. At the end of the day that's all that really matters.
Karen was a star from the beginning of the Carpenter,I grew up with their music.she was such an inspiration to me,RIP Karen,never forgotten.
I bought their first major album as a high school student and saw them at a concert in 1971. I have always appreciated both of them and think their version of "Close To You" is the most beautiful song ever.
This is fantastic. Richard is a good laddie!
I agree with everything Richard says. I enjoy listening to all his interviews.

Richard took that song, and made it unbelievable!!!
In their heyday I thought Richard was just the piano player. Had no clue he was the brains behind that outfit until years later.
She was the greatest singer to ever grace this planet

I agree about their immense talents. But why not buy them from an independent music store and support the artist more?
