- The complete concert from 1972 of the Carpenters at Budokan, Japan.
The main highlight is an alternate version of "And When He Smiles" which I've only ever heard in the 1971 BBC concert, and a wacky version of "I Fell In Love" which is different to any other version I've heard them perform.
Where there was no video I've had to use the Carpenters logo screen, and where there is video available, I've tried to sync it as best I can to the audio!

This is when they had 'Only Just Begun'... so young and full of promises. Karen on the drums, her first love, she had mad vocals, Richard on the keys... they both just had Incredible Musical Abilities. They were what you call... Perfection! 💎 Karen looked natural, no make up needed.... she was so Incredibly Beautiful. If only someone could've given her a 'Reason to Believe'... If only they would've left Karen be Karen. That voice, that voice... I miss that Incredible Once in a Lifetime Voice! Thank you for sharing! 💖
All your words are so true
True
Karen's problem wasn't a lack of support. She was mentally ill and wasn't able to cope with the stress of being a celebrity, although I suspect she would have had the same problems without Fame and Fortune.
SERIOUSLY. ????? WHAT. A. LOAD. OF. COMPLETE. & UTTER. CRAP. , !!!!!!! SHAME. ON. YOU. !!!!!!!!
Karen Carpenter singing and playing the drums is the biggest attraction for any musician in the world.
🌟
Check out her acting. There are some episodes of the Carpenters' TV show here on UA-cam.
Seen here singing live from behind her Drum Kit, that VOICE never fails to bring me to 😢tears. No different now that 50 years ago, she hasn't lost her magic touch!😌
The Carpenters were so huge for over a decade. Their records, live concerts, television specials, spots on variety shows, radio ads and interviews have left us an anthology of the music and lives of the 70's, recorded and preserved for posterity. And just when you thought you've seen it all, there's always new material being discovered and shown. This is Karen at her healthiest and just fantastic!
No one could come close to Karen Carpenters voice…and they never will! Richard Carpenter was a GENIUS a as well!
I have never seen this concert, once again she looks so happy on the drums, this is where Karen belonged, singing and drumming. A song I never heard them singing before near the end. I love the way the yellow glimmering colour Carpenters title matches her 'Magnificent Gown' To hear her speak words I have never heard before when she addresses the audience, it seems like she never left🌟
Drums were her first love. She looked so much happier when she was playing drums.
Thank you so much for this excellent, extended version of their concert. It was wonderful to hear alternative, live versions of AND WHEN HE SMILES, I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU, and the entire 8 song, BACHARACH MEDLEY.
Karen was an angel on earth who touched your soul, who is greatly missed. God bless you for posting this video.
Thank you for showing this hidden gem of Carpenters in Japan 1971🎶
Ahhh, Billy, you are a breath of fresh air indeed. Thank you for sharing this footage, even I - a diehard fan - have never seen this before. I best grab it quick LOL. Thx Billy. Oh, and very smart to change over the video screen to a pretty 'card' when Richard is speaking and throughout. You do what you have to.
Wonderful! Thanks for posting.
I lived in Tachikawa AFB 69-1973. I loved Carpenters and played their album in the restaurant I worked at outside the Main Gate as hostess. But I didn't see them in concert regrettable!! CLOSE TO YOU always takes me back there!!
Karen Carpenter - surely the best female vocalist ever.
このコンサートは実際に武道館へ行きました。当時、高校2年生でした。ステージはとても楽しく、今でもよく覚えています。
the biggest pain of being born in the 21st century is that all my fave singers have passed and i will never see them live :( at least i have youtube
The time audience listen music modestly.
Thank you so much for uploading this. Can you please upload the 1974 budokan concert.
Omg! I love that they showed him playing the oboe! ❤
As Karen sings and plays the drums, her voice & facial expressions contain so much soul & joy - especially throughout the Bacharach medley. Sensational performance.
Thank you so much
She’s the first one I’m gonna visit when I get up there
This concert is probably the only where they sang reason to believe live.
Live at the BBC in '71?
#477👍😀🎉I was 16 in 72 and have many happy memories of these two great performer's!! Wish I could have seen them in concert!! Last month 02-19-23 I attended the Eagles concert in Portland. It was a treat!!
She looks beautiful and healthy 😍💕💖💗❤💓😍Wish she would have stayed that way.
Tony Peluso and Bob Messenger have passed on. Great musicians. RIP, gentlemen.
A big fan of Karen Carpenter
Karen Carpenter was the best female singer of all time. Not to this day can any compare. Had the chance to see 2 of their concerts .Simply the best.Miss Karen everyday.
🌟
I have a copy of this concert on blu ray that I imported from japan. It appears that my audio is different tho. The keyboard and flute solos are different. Is this video synced with a radio broadcast that is a different night of the concert? I’m a die hard fan and it is very interesting to me!
Nice job on this. I've been trying with no luck to find a live performance of It's Going to Take Some Time. Are you aware of one?
🤟🏻 🌟 🤟
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Too bad about the quality. It looks like it was a great concert. Love it when Karen is at the drums.
Why in the world did they travel with this orchestra in those concerts over seas,didn't need them ,she looks like she is in her HAPPY PLACE behind those AWESOME LUDWIG'S ,Shame on management removing her
When Karen was normal weight, she should stayed behind the drums maybe she would be alive today.
They made the biggest mistake ever taking her out from behind the drums!!
1972年の武道館ライヴ、アップロードありがとうございます‼️
古いけどすごく新鮮ですね！
1970年のヤマハ音楽歌謡祭に初来日したときの映像どなたかお持ちじゃないですか？？
Karen Carpenter is one of the wonders that the Almighty decided to gift the Earth with; It's a shame that not even He could stand being away from her for a long time and, very quickly, he ended up taking her back to himself...
33:24 Doug Strawn accidentally spat in Karen's face, poor thing 😅
