music, books, love and kindness

There are quite a few Carpenters tribute albums out there, some rather good, if not totally out there and a little bit WTF? (check out 1994's alt rock If I Were A Carpenter ) and some more along the lines of interesting but... (see the above.)

 I've never heard of Jenny Sinclair before so I have no clue what her musical background is. She certainly has a pleasant enough voice...very close to Karen Carpenter's pitch, in fact.

But the whole disco aspect to Forever Carpenters  is kind of odd. I have to say, though, the cover of "(They Long To Be) Close To You" is very much in spirit with the sweetness of it all. :)
