Okay, all...
Back in the day (my Carpenters' heyday), I heard a wild story about KC's solo stuff being stolen out of her car, which was in the parking garage of her condo bldg in Century City. Now, I stored this in the back of my mind until just a little over a week ago. Another Carpenters fan shared with me that he had bought some of the unreleased solo stuff off of ebay for about $18.
Just curious, has anyone else heard this?

$% Hi Scott, FYI... I moved this topic from the ALBUMS: SONG BY SONG section of the forum. that section is only for the song by Song synopsis' of each Carpenters album. BTW the song by song for "A Kind Of Hush" is coming soon. Anyway this is the first time I've heard about KC solo tapes being stolen from her car. The unreleased songs have been floating around on the internet for quite a few years now. I got mine in 2001. The unreleased songs are raw because they're unfinished but they are an excellent set of songs. And I hope one day they are completed, remixed and released.

OK maybe I can shed some light on this. No Karens solo record songs were not stolen from her car but her unreleased solo songs were leaked to the internet. The stolen story I got was an employee was working at A&M as universal was buying them. Universal had assured the A&M staff nothing would change when universal took ownership. Universal apparently renegged on their promise and began to overhaul A&M record and alot of A&M employees lost their jobs over it apparently one emplyee stole alot of unreleased material from A&M before he lost his job and the unreleased solo songs were among them he then placed all the stolen songs on the internet to get back at Universal. I do not know if this is true but thats the story I got of the origins of the unreleased solo songs. Maybe someone has a better explanation and can shed some light on this.
