I was in my local music store a few days ago and came across the English import of "As Time Goes By". It was priced $25.00. I considered buying it, but didn't as it has all the same songs as the Japanese release which I already have.
I am curious though, if anybody may know, if the English import has any different liner notes or pictures than the Japanese edition.

Hi All, I just had to comment on the AS TIME GOES BY album. I obtained it, and the RAINBOW CONNECTION CD single from a fellow Carpenters fan, and I remember the day I got it. I worked in a hotel in Jasper, Alberta, and I remember the day the mail came in, and I raced home at lunch time to listen to it. I was just blown away by the opening song and the complete sung(origionally aided by Ella and John) but now sung by K and R on their own dime, for fun. It makes me wonder how many other sungs they sung and have never been released or won't see the light of the day. Anyhow, I loved Karen's song I've Got Rhythm, which showcases her stunning drumming skills as well as her stunning vocals. Which was from their 1980 Music Music Music special. I also loved LEAVE YESTERDAY BEHIND, my fave song on the album. I just adored it. Also I loved the complete Perry Como medley, as the tv version on the 1974 Holiday Perry Como special which C's guested, had 4 songs fall to the floor and were never aired...but on this album, the medley has the complete version, with RC singing some of Perry's parts. THE RAINBOW CONNECTION song is here, and the first time I had ever heard it I got goosebumps and got teary eyed because I was so happy to hear Karen's voice in a new recording, and because she would not be here to sing more songs. So it was nice to hear it again. Plus a lot of other great songs! If you don't have this album, I would recommend that you get it! It's a wonderful album full of everything...a potpourri of Carpenters songs!!
My thoughts, Cameron PS. The album cover is stunning. Karen looks gorgeous!!
