This song shows that Karen could have sung anything and still sounded great. There has never been anyone like her since, and I doubt there will ever be again.

With Passage, the Carpenters explored in some interesting and fun directions, this song being an excellent example. Such a bummer that they followed it up with the safe, insipid Made in America.

Tom Scott produced and arranged most of the music to this album, and I believe that is his flute and sax on there as well. He is incredible as well.It has always been interesting how the best arrangers and artists go so well together. Carpenters and Tom Scott just like Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson. Incredible.

Kick ass tune. What a beautiful picture of her at 1:00
Don't forget this was originally written and performed by the great Michael Franks.

...and people still saying that 'Passage' is a bad album.

@diegolcl Isn't that something. "B'wana She No Home" is one of those songs that your standard longtime Carpenters fan just does not get. but fans of jazz fusion and pop music with an edge really like this song. People who generally do not like Carpenters like this one...

I think Karen if she were still alive,would been a successful jazz artist.. the music was evolving in that fashion...god I miss this HUGE talent!!

Yes, Karen Carpenter's music was moving towards a jazz influence.
Her entire solo album was jazz influenced with inflections of funk, pop, disco, new wave, rock and other influences.
