‘A Tribute to Burt Bacharach’.
Look
beyond the familiar sickly sweet, coy images – and the later tragedy of Karen’s
death, aged just 32 – and it’s possible to see that (the) Carpenters were
musical mavericks: not least for selling 150 million records in an era when
rock, punk and prog rock were ruling the roost. The two prized performances
presented here, capture a golden era in the Carpenters’ legacy, defined by the
charismatic rich alto tones of Karen, and the perfectionist approach of Richard
who delivers it flawlessly.
Applause very proudly presents the entire
original broadcast of the Carpenters, live from the Nippon Budokan Hall, Tokyo
in June 1972. Professionally re-mastered original broadcasts with bonus
material taken from the duo’s live tribute concert to the Bacharach/David songbook
from New York’s Carnegie Hall in 1971.
