Este foi um dos primeiros LPs que eu tive na vida... Acho q eu tinha 7 anos qdo ganhei... Rever a capa e o selo dá uma nostalgia quase insuportável :o)
It seems there's an alternate take from 2:30 because the way she sings "why don't you come to your senses"... Seems the quad mixes occasionally used slightly different lead vocal takes or something...
Dead because some no life having P.O.S. concert reviewer called her "pudgy" in his review and she never got over it.. being a bulimic the rest of her life.. Rot in hell you SHYTASS reviewer.
The final slide in your video shows a 45 record sleeve -- Was that a sleeve from another country? I wasn't aware Desperado was released as a single in the US.
February 4, 1983... It doesn't seem like it has been 28 years since the untimely death of Karen Carpenter and it's now 2011. The years since have flown by. Karen Carpenter has been and will always be my favorite female vocalist. Kare, wherever you are, you are missed greatly by your fans. May you continue to rest in peace.
While we Karen's fan's think this one of her best readings of a song... She never liked it... This song also reminds me alot of the late Heath Ledger whenever I hear it... I am Karen took Heath under her wing when he arrived at the gates of Heaven..
I had heard your other postings in QUAD for Carpenters but must have missed this one! And one of my favorites too. Will you be releasing more tracks soon?
Glad to see there are ZERO dislikes on this because it is without question one of Karen's very best vocal recordings. So dynamic and intense - when she gets into the bridges to the chorus it always gives me goosebumps and makes me cry a little. Why this wasn't considered for single release is beyond me. Stunning -thanks mboy for your hard work and perfection in getting this HQ track loaded.
I'm guessing that this would have been released too close to the Eagles' version, which is why they didn't release as a single in 1975. Karen's vocal performances on this album are beyond stunning. And only 25 years old.
The whole album sounds superb when you listen on a true quad system. I'm very lucky to have a re-built one with reel to reel deck and Q-8 track player with turntable.
If you REALLY want to be blown away, you have to hear "Now and Then" LP in this format.
The picture at :23 is from the Don Kirschner Rock Concert tribute to Jim Croce, late 1974.
thanks for sharing and thanks for caring (about good music)

@contour157 Actually, I believe it was her mother who called her chunky or something similar. That goes much deeper than any reviewer could impose.
