Rick - great new background photo - one I have never seen before. Can you give us some info on it? I'm guessing it's from '75-'76?

I agree, Leo, this is a great shot of Karen, and I, too, have never seen it before that I can recall. Where did this one come from, Rick? It looks like perhaps Karen is on a TV stage? Curious, here! Tim  |

It is labelled as a shot from a Japenese tour so it could not have been from 1975 because the Carpenters cancelled their Japanese tour due to Karens health. Looks to be 1976/77 period I like the photo and would also like to know more about it I assume its at the end of the concert because the Japanese always gave Karen/the Carpenters flowers after their shows in Japan. The flowers also point towards a tour date in Japan they are almost the same as the ones Karen recieved after the concert on the 1974 dvd of live at the Budokon (sp?). Just some info.   |

If you view the image (photobucket) it states Japan/1976.
BTW, I really like the photo, too!

 Yes, this picture was taken in 1976 during their Japanese tour. It's from a 1976 Program book which I purchased from the fan club in late 1976. It has inofrmation on the album "A Kind Of Hush" and a short biography on Carpenters up to that point. Most of the pictures in this Program book have shown up on the internet.
Karen does look beautiful in this shot. |
