    Forty years later, no women singer can hold a candle to Karen Carpenter. The sweetest voice of all time. Best female drummer in many peoples opinions including mine. The VOICE passes the heart to the soul. Amazing !!!

      So, so well said. I can not get over the purity of tone and intonation along with that gentle contralto vibrato. No, never see the likes of this voice again, but I give such thanks I was alive during her time. What a blessing from God.

    I saw this when it was originally broadcast in 1980. I recorded the whole programme on my little cassette recorder and replayed it many times over the years (yes, I've still got it). This is one of my favourite medleys. One thing I always notice is Richard's face throughout the medley. You don't often see him smiling so much so genuinely and naturally. It's as if he realises what an honour it was to have such a special sister.

    Like Luther Vandross, Karen had no equal. Her sultry lower register and spot on tone of her upper register, will never be duplicated. I read articles that said she was called “one take Karen” in the studio. Love and miss her

    Jeff, i just cant get enough of this performance. It's just so very good. This is Karen at her absolute best in my opinion. The arrangement is incredible. Richard doesn't get nearly enough credit for his singing, writing and arranging. I listen to this at least once everyday and several times on most days. Thanks again.

    Wooo! Wooo! Wooo! The ever great Karen Carpenter! Everything she ever sang and/or recorded is marvelous. And she was a fabulous drummer as well. At 5:12 going into the intro of "Make It Easy On Yourself", oh my. She just, wow! Gives me chills every time I hear her sing it. Incredible voice! Full of emotion, regardless of what she's singing. "Make It Easy On Yourself", "Solitaire" (ugh, rips the heartstrings right out & yet it's another favorite of mine), "A Song For You", "Trying To Get The Feeling Again", "Love Me For What I Am" (excellent lyrics for all of us & our mates), "Goodbye To Love", "Only Yesterday", the list goes on and on and on. Thank you for your reaction.

Lots of happy tears when I listen to her and Richard. Thanks again. I very much enjoyed your observations.

    I read somewhere that John Lennon actually made a positive comment direct to Karen Carpenter about her amazing voice, praise doesnt come much higher than that! Without any doubt the most recognisable voice of the 70’s. Thanks for the reaction Jeff love trips down memory lane like this 🤩

    • @tomschmitz-dj1fg
      @tomschmitz-dj1fg 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      outside a restaurant in Los Angeles, John Lennon came up to her and said to her " I just want to tell you Luv, you have a fabulous voice"... Shortly afterwards, she told her brother Richard of this ( they were huge beatles fans) and asked her brother if he, Lennon, meant what he said.. Sad she didn't believe it herself.

    Have Loved Karen since 1970 when I started and stopped drum lessons. Restarted drum lessons at 63 and aspire to play like Karen and Viola Smith did! Having been from Connecticut, I also felt comfortable with her.
    Very few singing drummer's and I missed seeing her and Richard.

    This compilation is so.wonderful. Her version of Someday leaves me absolutely speechless. It is so incredibly beautifully sung.

Absolutely heartbreakingly exceptional ...

    The world is filled with many beautiful singers, that's a accompliment . Karen Carpenter, like any singer has such a unique vocal and style
    Her voice is like a breath of spring. Very very angelical and smooth and soothing to the soul. She was 15 when i was born in 1964. I grew up listening to her own music
    Now I'm 60. And still listening. And singing her songs on karaoke

    I've not seen this anywhere online. This channel has a first. That was a good special. Richard had to insist on not mucking up the show with skits and such. If anyone is interested, another piece from this show has Karen doing a little softshoe, before jumping on the trap set and whaling. The "I Got Rhythm Medley" really shows she had drum chops out the wazoo.

    Jeff, I think you and I are from similar eras. I, too, really liked the Carpenters and it was a real tragedy about Karen,. I hadn't heard them for quite so time. Then I heard Karen start "Rainy Days" and within 2 syllables I knew it was Karen Carpenter. It was such a shock I backed it up and started over. What a nostalgia trip. Kudos for finding this recording.There's just something about Karen's voice. I think I have the same instant recognition when I hear Lucy Thomas. A fellow reactor said: When you hear Lucy you KNOW it's Lucy. In my 80+ years there have been very voices that stood out like Karen (and now Lucy).

    Saw the Carpenters live at SMU in early '71. It was excellent. A small backup group, 8 to 10 total, IIRC. Most, if not all of the band, sang harmony if they weren't playing a wind instrument. Remember this was very much in the pre-synthesizer with sampling days. What a voice, gone far too soon, kind of like Eva Cassidy!

  • @jbs256
    @jbs256 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Now separately regarding this reaction. Other than my difficulty in watching thin Karen, it’s so beautiful. Cubby on drums FTW. There’s another one of these with Karen in an evening dress, on drums. Maybe even this show. As I stated in my other post, my first time here and subscribed. I like watching people of my generation doing this stuff, second only to a youngsta discovering Karen for the first time and their brains melting out of their head with joy. That and Bohemian Rhapsody for the first time. 🤣 Great reaction to a classic. Also check out the channel of Harvey Stig, he’s using some kind of magic (AI Based?) video rescue and restoration to save old Carpenters videos. I mean, mind glowingly beautiful. 4K and all. No distortion 4:3.

    Nobody can compare with Karen's incredible voice along with her genius brother Richard. There is a wonderful 19 year old singer from the Uk called Lucy Thomas. I highly recommend that you react to any of her numerous videos, she's just released her 5th studio album. This autumn she is due to star in the West End in London in a brand new musical especially written for her called "Rosie." Many rectors have said she is already one of the best singers in the world. I'd love to know what you think?

    Here are the isolated vocals of Karen for the Music Music Music arrangement. Her voice quality is absolutely amazing! Much credit cans be given to Frank Pooler her college choir director at Long Beach State. He strongly stressed the importance of dictation and enunciation to his a cappella group.

    Obviously this was prerecorded. Doesn’t make it any less beautiful though.

    Hello Jeff (if I may),
    I’m in your category and have the gray hair, though slightly less, LOL. I am an OG Carpenters fan having bought Close To You from the #2 position at Sam Goody in 1970, at 14. I was smitten right then and there. Devastated in 1983.
    In October 2023 algorithms, which just showed me you, showed me a 20 year old singer named Tori Holub. I played the song that was linked to me and the goosebumps and chills running down my spine argh. So, I’m warning you to be seated and braced when you play a Tori cover.
    I’m going to make this brief as I can’t write too much and get it through. So. As proof of concept do a search for…
    Tori Holub Merry Christmas Darling
    If you don’t know in 5 seconds you’re hearing something special. I’ll go away. I’m am not adverse to PP requests. Search…
    Tori Holub Reaction
    That’s all me, at least for now. If this comment survives and you heard it and write back I’ll tell you my requests. Be well and be seated when you play her.
    Joe

    And the absolute shame is that we are robbed of Karen doing a complete solo version of This Masquerade instead of a snippet, or a complete duet version of This Masquerade with the first Lady of Song, the exquisite great Ella Fitzgerald!! A so freaking missed opportunity!
