Gospel singer Sandi Patty, who I have mentionned before does an imitation of Karen Carpenter, the way she thinks Karen would sing JESUS LOVES ME... It is on www.sandipatty.com and go to MEDIA, and click on drop down box JESUS LOVES ME medley... This was done back in 1983...filmed and recorded... Cameron |

I think her performance on this songs is not Karen's style.Karen have a sweeter voice.But I have to say Sandi's voice is not bad.

%?? Hi Cam I've read you mentioning Sandi Patti several times before in different posts, and wanted to comment here - she is incredible - that's for sure. I am especially fond of the Let There Be Praise CD - it has a lot of "Easter" related songs on it. Then there's another - the one with "love will be our home" and 'Come Before Him" - don't know the name of the CD - but I think it also has my all time fave from Sandi - "More Than Wonderful." I have sung a lot of her songs in church - using backing vocal tracks. She has quite a range - her voice is beautiful, but she just doesn't possess that sweetness that Karen did. I enjoy her a lot - and prefer not to compare the voices - they're just so different in style. Sandi Patti has a gift, for sure. Some ramblings for now. tim  |

Oh of course their voices are different ....Sandi is known for her high C's...and Karen for her low notes...but Sandi does have such a sweetness in her soul and personality...very sweet and friendly when I met her....she is indeed a huge fan of Karen. As for Sandi's voice...she is a gorgeous singer...and I know that Karen would have been a fan...of each other's talent...

 Yes, I think you're 100% correct, Cam. I believe they would have gotten along, famously. I did not know that Sandi was, indeed, a fan of Karen, but it's completely understandable. I, too, have met Sandi, and she is a delightful individual. I can see she and KC "pal-ing around" - and they could have made some beautiful music together. Both, in their own rights (like you said, one in the stars, and the other, as we know, in the basement) tremendous vocalists. Wow - can you imagine a few duets? I can. Best to you, Tim

Tim-
Sandi's CD that contains the songs you mentioned is "Make His Praise Glorious." I, too, am a major fan of both Sandi's and Karen's. I love them for their similarities, differences, and everything in between!
I remember catching Sandi on Regis and Kathie Lee in the early 90's and she mentioned, again, about her influence of Karen and Barbra Streisand. Kathie Lee agreed with her.
adding some more ramblings....
