A trip down memory lane. Great songs from a classic duo.

Full title is: 40/40


2009 two CD set released to coincide with the 40th Anniversary of the Soft Pop duo's 1969 debut album. The Carpenters are one of the world's most influential musical duos and one of the best-selling artists of all time. Their unique combination of meticulously crafted arrangements by Richard Carpenter and the distinctive voice of Karen Carpenter has placed them in a league of their own. Time has done nothing to diminish the group's popularity. In fact, if anything, the group is more relevant than ever. Contemporary artists such as Christina Aguilera, Gwen Stefani and Sheryl Crow have stated that Karen's voice was a major influence on them. As recently as last year, Sonic Youth's version of 'Superstar' appeared prominently in the film Juno, solidifying the group's wide ranging, demo-defying following. Features 40 of the duo's best loved recordings.
