Format:DVD
The public tends to forget the impact that the Carpenters had in the 1970's - selling over 100 million records. This set contains wonderfully remastered hits with the videos that accompanied them. Mind you, this was before songs were made into videos and the outfits were frightening (but then again, what were we wearing back then)? You can blame the A&M executives for the wholesome appearance of the duo. They thankfully were other than they appeared.
The music is the main focus here and the videos are merely the means to show them. Sure, Karen's apparent health varies from song to song, but the voice is always strong.
"The Carpenters: Close To You" makes a great video companion piece and sheds an enormous amount of light on who the Carpenters really were. However, if you just want the music, stick with this video. It's full of memories and great songs!

I received this DVD as a Christmas present but found it to be very disappointing. Most of the videos are mimed and of performances at a mixture of events rather than the video... Read more
