Honestly, though I wasn't alive in 1973 when that record came out, I owned the early Carp records and I could compare this album to the self-titled 1971 one and "Song For You" and this particular one shook ground and their reputations. With the image of the Carpenters being what it was, the general public thinking they were the anti-rock stars, this "Now And Then" record proved that they weren't, and were as valid of rock stars as any other rock group of those days. Then again, "Goodbye To Love" with Tony Peluso's Hendrix-like solo also broke through the barrier between rock and contemporary.
What made this special was the oldies' medley on side B. Showed to the world that Karen and Richard could rock.
To me, this was their turning point, like the Beatles with the Revolver and Sgt. Pepper albums.
