It's Sad That Karen Is Not Here But As Long As We Can Still Listen To Her LPs CDs And Still See Her Video's She's Still Here With Us But It Would Be More Wonderful To See Her Now With Richard Singing There Great Hits And I Know Alot Of Great New Hits She's Forever In Our Heart's ❤️💔
Karen and the Carpenters were my idol growling up,I still remember the day we lost Karen,thank you for all your music, we will always remember you,RIP Karen Carpenter. 🙏🙏❤
One of the biggest tragedies in my lifetime was Karen Carpenters death. If only she knew how much joy she brought to our lives…a voice that only God could create! She is missed greatly!😢
Richard was the go to man, he could hob nob well after moving to Ca. Karen loved the drums, and when Richard heard her sing a few notes, he went to work, eventually getting shy Karen out from singing behind the drums, and even though older was behind her, making her the Star she could be in every way, making sure all details were attended to.
Good Friend Burt Bacharach Wrote This Guy's in Love with you in '69 & asked his apprehensive friend Herb Alpert to Sing it! It went Number 1. The Following year Bacharach write Close to you with Hal David, Rest is history
@doctorgarbanzo2525. Actually, Burt Bacharach wrote "(They Long To Be) Close To You" in the mid-1960's and I think that Lynn Anderson recorded it but her rendition wasn't a huge hit, and then in 1970 Herb Alpert gave the lead sheet of the song to Richard Carpenter saying to him that Bacharach had told him (Herb Alpert) to give the song to Richard with the proviso/condition that he could do anything with the song as far as the arrangement of the song but to leave in the piano bridge in the song which Richard did.
I did not know that Herb actually recorded a version of "Close To You" I thought he just passed the lead sheet off to Richard because he didn't like the lyrics. Thanks for posting.

I believe that is Lani Hall, Herb's Wife. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lani_Hall#/media/File:Lani-Hall-Alpert_MG_6749-cropped.jpg en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lani_Hall
Oh yes Herb has a very great ear for talent only He didn't know it The Carpenters were a phenomenal discovery, Karen's voice was just incredible and her drumming was good too!
FD: i subscribed to Herb Alpert's youtube channel just a couple months before the drop of the Movie. Herb made it available to all of his subs. it is a remarkable documentary well deserved too
Nobody could come close to Karen’s voice. For the rest of eternity, the Carpenters sound will be rediscovered by future generations. I’m glad I grew up in a time where the Carpenters’ music was fresh and new. Along with that came the heartbreak of the day we all learned that Karen left this world so early. ❤

I taught in college in China and they love Karen Carpenter. Everyone knows her songs
The love her too in Japan. Plays their songs even though they don’t understand the language .
Richard was the go to man, he could hob nob well after moving to Ca.

Sweet. Three of the finest people ever to grace the American popular music industry.
Yes!

Herb asked Burt for the song…in 1968…. It’s right there in the documentary…if you happen to watch Herb Is…

And the great Billy Rees comes through again !!
Hooray !!!
It seems like Billy is living in Richard Carpenter’s Carpenters basement, with all the Carpenters Memorabilia all around him.
Herb so incredibly talented and incredibly handsome! Lani is so blessed to be his wife.

They Should’ve released Karen’s solo album. Karen should’ve insisted and not rely on Richard’s approval. Thats the thing she has less self esteem.
Richard ran her into the ground. Especialy her narcissist mom did too. she needed to move out 😊 marry and still be alive.
Herb, you are a great musician and a good singer, but "Close to You" just wasn't your song. Sorry.

If you please, as a favor to me, would you please read your comment and then edit it so that it's intelligible? Thank you ever so much.
