Subject: Re: Viewpoints on the Karen Carpenter solo album Author: BOAT2SAIL [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 21:15:33 12/29/02 Sun In reply to: jim 's message, "Re: Viewpoints on the Karen Carpenter solo album" on 12:42:53 12/28/02 Sat I really like Karen's solo album, although on some of the tracks here voice is not as full sounding especially in her higher range, such as on "Still Crazy After All These Years". This rumor about the outtakes being released is interesting. It would be very nice to have better sounding finished versions of these songs.

It's so out of her range she must have been clutching her throat to hit the notes. I've read somewhere a version of Linda Ronstadt's "You're No Good" exists. I use Linda because Karen's version closely resembles hers, so they say.

[> [> [> [> Subject: Re: Viewpoints on the Karen Carpenter solo album Author: R1229 [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 10:27:00 12/31/02 Tue "Jimmy Mack" is awkward for Karen. Though I do like the overall sound of the song. I've heard of "You're No Good", and I've done a few searches for it but have been unable to find it. That's one song I'd like to hear. I wonder why that one hasn't surfaced like the rest of them did. >Agreed. One song I didn't like is the unreleased >"Jimmy Mack."
