;DHi All: Just read on some web site that the carpenters did in fact record a medley of abba songs. The medley was recorded in the studio as a warm up, to some of the songs, Karen and Richard were in the process of recording. Im thinking 77 or 78,sessions.Im really curious as to which abba songs they recorded.How about everyone else? Who else has heard about this? Looking forward to any info anyone can contribute to this topic.

I never heard anything about an ABBA medley, but K&R apparently recorded "Thank You for the Music" by ABBA. Karen sang it live when she and Rich guested on the Tonight Show in the late 70s, and the fan club newsletter said it would be released as a single at about the same time. Then Rich went into rehab and the album was abandoned. This song's been in limbo ever since, but if I remember right, it was mentioned on the early tracklists for "As Time Goes By," although it was ultimately left off the album. It would be nice to hear it someday... before we all die.  |

Hi Carlo, I've also read this somewhere else on the internet. I would love to hear this medley. Carpenters and Abba would have blended together real well. Too bad Carps never recorded with other artists.

Too bad Carps never recorded with other artists. The Carpenters DO recorded with others artists. |
