Hi. I was reading in a post about Karens unreleased songs from the solo session and someone(I believe it was Rick) said there are several theories on how they ended up on Kazaa etc. So I am now wondering what these theories are. Although many of them might just be gossip I would really like to hear as I am dead curious  |

Yes it is only gossip. These were theories I've read on other forums maybe a year or two ago. One person thought that maybe they were leaked by someone on the inside because they would never be released and this was a way for fans to hear them.
Another person said that probably they were leaked by a friend of Karen's who may have been given the recordings as a gift.
Those are the only two that come to mind, but I've read a few others.
It is interesting the idea of how the songs were leaked, but really the theories are only that. I'm just glad that we've been able to hear the songs. They are a cherished part of any Carpenters fans collection of rarities. I wouldn't be surprised if these songs are completed and finally released. There are a whole lot of people around the world who will go and buy clean studio recordings of these songs. I will be first in line when it comes out.

I keep hearing more and more talk about these songs. Wasn't Karen's solo album originally going to be released as a double album? Does anybody know this? I thought I read that somewhere.

No. The Carpenters used to record more songs than the needed for an album project. These songs are known as outtakes or work leads. |
