The Carpenters won the Best New Artist Grammy Award for 1970. I know the competition was tough. does anybody know who the other nominees were? I know two of them were James Taylor and Elton.

Hi, Other Best Artist Nominees : Melba Moore Elton John Anne Murray The Partridge Family ........ Carpenters Best Group / Duo Grammy was even more impressive ...... : The Beatles Jackson Five Chicago Simon & Garfunkel ..... ;D Simon & Garfunkel took home 6 Grammies ....so this was a real Carpenters coup !!

I had been under the impression that James Taylor and Bread were nominees for Best New Artist 1970. With the exception of elton john The Carpenters really didn't have much competition there. Although winning over groups like; The Beatles, Chicago, and Simon & Garfunkel is quite impressive.

Peter on the Grammy Awards program Shirley Jones and David Cassidy read the nominations for the Best Group / Duo Grammy and handed K&R their award.
