Hi! I'm glad I found this site having been a fan of the Carpenters since 1970. To me there has never been a voice as pure as Karen's...probably never will be again. Now here's a question (or two) for the board: Has anyone heard anything about releasing the Carpenters tv specials on DVD? And also I would think that as much touring that they did, that some of the shows may have been professionaly recorded- any chance of of any material seeing the light of day? Take care!  |

I've seen the TV specials on VHS being auctioned on Ebay. I don't think they have actually been released, these are probably bootleg copy or something like that.

@@ I'm not sure of this but I believe the reason Richard hasn't released the TV Specials to the public is because he feels there isn't a demand for them. Which I think he's wrong on that one. I myself would buy a copy of all five television specials if they were released on DVD or VHS.  |

***********  *********** ****************************************  Of course, I have all those on VHS, but, if they are available on DVD one day..., I'd buy a thousand of each.
Now, is that demand or what?
Just kidding 
..., but, I know those TV shows would sell. [glow=red,2,300][/glow][shadow=red,left,300]  [/shadow][shadow=red,left,300]Roland Chayer[/shadow][shadow=red,left,300] [/shadow] |

I myself would buy a copy of all five television specials if they were released on DVD or VHS. I think there is more to it than that first of all ABC aired all 5 specials and may have the rights to them as well as Richard (he may need their permission to release them) or as Richard explained with the Make Your Own Kind Of Music shows getting permissions from performers on the specials etc would be a costly and monumental task that Richard does not feel is worth the percieved little return he would get from the release of the specials on DVD. Hope that helped. BTW like Rick and others I would buy the specials if they ever were to be released on DVD. Though unlikely hopefully someday they will be released. |

I've thought for a long time that my next acquisition should be one or more of the specials.
