Carpenters’ non-top 40 hits

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic


   There have been so many revisionist versions of Carpenters songs, and unfortunately a number of singles weren't top 40 pop hits (although they were top 40 AC); nonetheless, they are not in the database, so can anyone list off which CDs I can find the original, non-remixed single versions of these Carpenters singles:


Beechwood 4-5789

Bless the Beasts and the Children

Those Good Old Dreams

Make Believe It's Your First Time

Back in My Life Again

	Gordon, I was always under the impression that when Richard remixed the hits, it was for compilations and the versions on the original album CDs were the non-remixed versions. Maybe I'm wrong on this, but that has been my impression.

	I know "Bless the Beasts and Children" is on the 1999 remaster of "A Song For You."
