HI Enigma! I have been searchng
the web from RCA archives to
bootleg producers. I posted the
question which produced the post
claiming there were two RCA albums
that were not released. I found
that very hard to believe but I
found a web site, which I will
have to relocate, that confirmed
that RCA cut two albums. Even if
these songs are not released, I
would love to know the titles of
the songs they recorded. It would
be cool if there is a Mr. Magic
or Invitation out there in RC's
or RCA's vault.

Funny you should mention that Jim I have posted a request at another Carpenters forum to anybody who knows of any song titles from the unreleased RCT records I do not expect a full song list but there are some Carpenter "experts" in there so we will see what they have to say. I posted it yesterday so I will wait a few days and see if I get any results.

Interesting topic ...Richard has many RCT tracks in his archive : RCA Studio Tracks -recorded Autumn 1966 -RCA passed on this combo and none of these tracks were released !  1965 /1966 Tracks -similar to Caravan -recorded as demos & rehearsals .....  1965 >1967 Live Tracks recorded at various small gigs , receptions , weddings etc by Trio  Rather than a separate Trio tracks album release , I think Richard is more likely to include more Trio , Spectrum & early Karen Magic Lamp recordings on a future box set -ideally one whole CD of rare early songs & demos .... I have a bad presentiment: Richard will please us, but first he will release these Trio tracks by 2020 in Japan. Later, he will do an american release.... |

Wow Man!! 2020!! Dave will be 65
and I will be 56. According to
a doctor in Pittsburgh I have been
dead for 15 years. If this is heaven, it certainly is not what
I expected. Maybe I was reincarnated as me only ditzyer.
Richard has stated that there are
many complex royalty issues involved that it makes releasing
TV specials hard to release, that
was evident from the release of
ATGB. The U.S. version had less
material from TV specials due
Royalty issues. Come on you royalty
hungup people this is not 1975 85
or 95! In Jan. it will be 2005!
Who on earth is left to hagle over
the sorted topic of coin. As far
as RC and his privately owned
material, well its his ball game
but at this point in the game I
would want to make my fans happy
before they shut the lights down
on the field.
Sorry for that public display of
an adult temper tantrum.

Well Kids. Old JIMBo spent all day
on the net looking for information
on RCT. If you go to Memorable
Music Hall Of Fame, there is a
detailed history of the Carpenters
which does state that two albums
were cut at RCA but never released.
Yesterday Once More has an article
that states that there are only
four known recordings by RCT that
are in print.
I also dicovered that staring at
cathode rays all day can cause
extreme drowsiness.

No fair Roland. You beat me to it.
I am impressed that you even know

store in my upgraded pentium 4
cranium.

Good idea..., Funny Dave.
Have fun with your *Real Karen*.
Looks like we brought the basement party to the *trio's thread*..., or is it the *parents thread*??
I guess some of our friends will pick up from now later tonight...[glow=red,2,300][/glow][shadow=red,left,300] [/shadow][shadow=red,left,300]Roland C.[/shadow][shadow=red,left,300] [/shadow]

Jim Hi Jim, thanks for researching this. I'll check this out. I remember seeing a track list of the songs RCT recorded, but I can't remember where. I guess it's my turn to do some detective work. Dave we will definitely have to do a Saturday Night Basement Party for Richard's birthday. Though, his b-day falls on a Friday this year - so it'll have to be a FNBP. |

Hey Rick. There is one more item
of interest I ran across in my
search, which of course I will
have to relocate. There is a
song called walkin wich appears
under jazz insturmentals with
Richard Carenter as the performer.
Also I have a question for you.
There is a track titled I FELL IN
LOVE AGAIN. I know this was a
thread about RCT no vocal but
do you know if that was an RCT
track or a spectrum. The song is
so different. I really enjoy it.
I love the tenor sax that is featured through out the song,
you can imagine whyLOL and they
sound like they were having so
much fun just jammin along.
This is way off topic but Robert
the genius has just finished adding
his sax talent on album in NYC
I am not sure about the title or
release date but I will post it
if you are interested. I am so
proud him. I would give anything
to have his talent. I am hoping
that when the song is done live
he will let me tag along and play
on some of the horn lines.

Hi Jim, "I Fell In Love With You" I believe is recorded by Spectrum, if it were the trio it would only include keyboards, drums and tuba (or bass). This song has more musicians in it.

Hi All, I Fell In Love ....is Carpenters ....the version is from classic Carpenters Radio special recorded in 1970 for USA Navy ..... Karen and I believe Doug Strawn share vocals -this is a great jazz / jam song ....shows early live performances in a radical light .... I did read claims that Carpenter Trio recorded 2 RCA albums ....but Richard in interviews & liner notes sticks to 11 studio tracks being completed & rejected..... Another mystery ..... Peter |
