As I adore Karen's voice and think the world of it, that is how I feel about songs that added something more by Richard thru his arrangement, harmony placements, instrumentation. I really have come to realize his gift. Whereas Karen had the voice, he was the arranger. Although, I still feel that Karen would have done well had she sung on her own...with a voice like that...she wouldn't have been limited to singing songs that fit into the Carpenters ouevre. She could have done anything, but that said, I still adore the songs she and Richard did...they made a wonderful team, but still would have been nice for her to make a name for herself as just Karen Carpenter...
My thoughts,
Cameron
