    Love the Burt Bacharach and Hal David medley performed by the Carpenters. One good song after another arranged like one whole song. Richard Carpenter, you are a genius. Even Burt Bacharach acknowledged your talent arranging songs. Don't get tired listening to your sister, Karen Carpenter smooth and soothing voice.

    Mind blowing. This was LIVE!!!
    They must have had a blast rehearsing for this performance, and they absolutely killed it. Karen moving it all along on the drums and singing perfectly and beautifully the whole time, with everyone else in the band right in tune.
    It's insane how great this is.
    They also were paying tribute to the legendary Burt Bacharach.
    It doesn't get any better than this, does it.

      ​​​@@johnmccarthy9391It's the record dude. Deal with it. That's an oboe you hear in the intro, but the guy on screen is playing a clarinet. A TV show like this is very seldom done live. The Carpenters rarely performed live sound on TV. Even when Ella Fitzgerald insisted on singing live, Karen's vocal was pre-recorded. This is the record you are hearing, deal with it. That giant vocal stack in "here to remind you here to remind you HERE TO REMIND YOUUUUUUUUUU" Is a famous stack of 50 Carpenter voices, there's only two of them, they can't sing 50 voices live.

      All of the comments stating that the vocals in this video are from the recording and not live 6:06 are 100% correct. Richard and Karen multi-tracked and overdubbed their background vocals to create those beautiful harmonies we fans have come to know and love so much. It's in the liner notes on most of their albums. Note that Karen is the only female on stage, yet you hear other female voices in background vocals. It's Karen's voice overdubbed. Those other guys "singing" in front of mics played instruments on Carpenters recordings, but didn't actually sing.

I wish Karen could have found someone to love her for her and only her. And I wish her mother could have complimented her the way she did Richard. Karen made the Carpenters. Richard was a brilliant arranger but Karen is the one who made them famous. Rest in peace Karen. You are still missed and loved. I for one still listen to you all the time. You made a difference in my life and thank you for sharing your beautiful voice with all of us. You are still loved and missed.

    • @TheLarryBrown
      @TheLarryBrown 7 місяців тому +3

      Any Karen imitator comes off as slightly weak. To be fair, there are some reasons why that will be the case no matter how good is the singer. Karen is the first and the original and the one we know best, so anyone else is invariably going to sound inauthentic. Also, it's just a given that no one can do "Karen Carpenter" as well as Karen Carpenter. Another reason is that one of the things that made Karen so great was that she had a magical gift for her personality and emotions, real or fabricated, to come out in her singing. There's no rational reason that a person singing a set melody and set lyrics should have their personality come out of that, but she had a gift to do that. No other person has the same personality that she does, and few singers have the star making quality that allows their personality to express in their singing. Also Karen sung in her own style, what she did best. Other singers need to sing in their own style, not Karen's style, that's just asking for frustration. Still, hearing scads of singers trying to do it as well and just coming off as second best goes to illustrate what we already knew. Karen had a very very special gift.

You set the mark for what a great musician is and should be as well as Richard, with his wonderful magic to be able to arrange and bring out the best Karen had to offer the world, because he knew her talent and they both shared their talents each bringing the best out of each other.

The proof of that fact is this gorgeously beautiful medley of Bacharach-David songs sung magnificently by Karen and Richard from one of their studio albums!

      @@9111logicbecause no two people can ever sound the same. Not to vocal analysis. She is however at or near the top of all the women out there and she gets the essence right. Eduard2004 did a side by side of this Medley using this BBC video and also the classic video of WOJB for that comparison. Tori is in the 90-95% class. Her earlier cover via the Pants on Piano channel of “I Need To Be In Love” IMHO she’s averaging 98%. She hit’s 100% (to my ear not analysis) a few times in that song and drops to 95%. It’s from 2022, so she’s 18-19. Of all the women tributing Karen, she’s the only one to my observations that did the 26 syllables with chromatics in her Short of Goodbye To Love. Also, I believe she’s the only one who can do justice to singing Olivia. Check out her recent Suddenly duet cover for an example, if you haven’t. She’s just turned 21. Can you imagine as her voice matures?

    I have seen this medley performed on a few UA-cam videos. Everytime it seems to be performed perfectly, especially the vocals. I look for any indication they are lip synching to a prerecorded track but I can't find that. How many groups today can pull something like this off live. Karen was a once in a lifetime singer.

      As a musician I often take a close look at these details and you're absolutely correct, not many can do the same anymore; I remember back in the days when we use to perform live as a four piece group and having to use up to six keyboards in order to compensate for the lack of other instruments such as those of a real orchestra. The Carpenters had something special however and for that I have been loving them since 1970 when I first heard their sound.

    When was this made that Richard is praising the Bee Gees as on of the masters of arrangement? Yes, I know the Bee Gees started in the 60s waaaay before their fame in Disco and had a string of hits from 67-71 before hitting a slump until Jive Talkin' in 75, but would they be in such august company by then?
    P.S. This came up because of the Tori Holub cover. I thought she was doing some songs the Carpenters (obscurely) covered (as opposed to obscure covers, which these are certainly not). I never knew there was an original performance!

    • @TheLarryBrown
      @TheLarryBrown 7 місяців тому

      You lost me on the P.S., I don't know what you are getting at there. But your point of Richard paying tribute to the Bee Gees in 1971....that's a good point. They blew up so big in 1977 that it's like their earlier three careers don't even exist, but taking Richard at face value here they must have been bigger in their previous incarnations than what we remember.

    My step-dad used to listen to this while he worked in his study. I would even see him get up and move his hips a little to the rhythm. I will say that Richard does handle the piano solo quite deftly during this live rendition. Sadly, Karen cannot quite hide her thinness with the outfit she is wearing.....
