I just had to check out what is a SHM-CD, having never heard of that. This is what I found: "The high quality SHM-CD (Super High Material CD) format features enhanced audio quality through the use of a special polycarbonate plastic. Using a process developed by JVC and Universal Music Japan discovered through the joint companies' research into LCD display manufacturing, SHM-CDs feature improved transparency on the data side of the disc, allowing for more accurate reading of CD data by the CD player laser head. SHM-CD format CDs are fully compatible with standard CD players." Couldn't say it any better..

Thanks Rick. I also think this set is for collector. But it is always good to have a release coming out. Ming

Hi all. Just signed up to the board. Saw the news about the 40th Anniversary Japanese release and wondered if anyone knows whether this will be packaged like the 35th--with all the albums in album-like cardboard sleeves inside a nice box? I don't have that set...but I'm seriously thinking about getting this one if it's similar.

Thanks Rick. I'll keep an eye out for more info as the time gets nearer. I won't jump on the "pre-order" bandwagon just yet! ha!

I recently became interested in the box set collection with the little cardboard album replicas after receiving a newly released lp of David Cassidy (I'm also huge fan of Partridge Family) from Japan. They really are reminiscent of the old record albums which I terribly miss. Knowing The Carpenters had done something like this for the 35th anniversary, I was going to see if I could find one of those out there somewhere, but was very happy to discover that a 40th anniversary set is on the horizon. Do The Carpenters/Karen Carpenter have many un-released songs left? Years ago, when eBay was still pretty new and they weren't watching the bootlegs as closely, I purchased a cd that had a lot of un-released songs on it. Most of them have been released at this point, but I've noticed that there are still a few on that cd that never made it out. Is there a list somewhere on an old thread here I can go looking for?

Hi Tim! Thanks for the welcome! And thanks, Rick, for bringing the Carpenters un-released tracks up to the forefront! I'm going over there to check that one out next!
I noticed on Amazon they have a picture of I'm assuming the set coming out, with "40/40" on it...? Title?
