Renata's Photo Renata 04 Nov 2002

EXISTE UNA CANCION LLAMADA WHEN I DIE EN DONDE OBVIAMENTE LA VOZ ES DE KAREN PERO HACE DUETO CON OTRA MUJER QUE LA VERDAD DESCONOZCO DE QUIEN SEA...
OJALA QUE ALGUIEN TENGA INFORMACION SOBRE ESTA CANCION.. AL IGUAL QUE CANCIONES COMO KEEP MY LOVELIGHT BURNING, SOMETHING´S MISSING, TRULY YOU Y ALGUNAS OTRAS QUE NO SALIERON EN NINGUN DISCO DE KAREN, AL MENOS, NO QUE YO SEPA
GRACIAS DESDE MEXICO...

THERE'S A SONG CALLED WHEN I DIE, WHERE, OBVIOUS, KAREN IS THE VOCALIST, BUT SHE SING WITH ANOTHER WOMAN, I DONT KNOW WHO IS SHE.....
IF SOMEBODY HAS INFORMATION ABOUT THIS SONG, PLEASE LET ME KNOW, SAME WITH SONGS LIKE KEEP MY LOVELIGHT BURNING, SOMETHINGS MISSING, TRULY YOU ETC...
THANKS...

And When I Die -a great song lyrically and musically was recorded by Karen and Richard in May 1969 for CSULB CHOIR Album(Written by the late Laura Nyro).

This American Classic was a huge hit in 1969 for Blood Sweat and Tears both as a Single (#2) and Platinum Album (#1) and has been recorded by many Artists and Groups.

I understand the other Vocalist featured is Wendy Freeman , also at CSULB with Carpenters. This track has an R&B / Blues feel to the recording with a great finale.Some fans do not like the song as being very Atypical Carpenters sound and Freeman's voice sharing the lead vocals.....however I love this track and hope Richard remixes / digitally remasters this track for a future Box Set or Rarities Set release .......

Some Fans attach significance to the lyric "And When I Die , Just Let Me Go Naturally ......" sung movingly as ever by Karen .........

Goodnight was originally featured on the CSULB Album and later cleaned up for release on From The Top (1991) and a third track with Carpenters is an early version of the stunning Crescent Noon with the Choir backing Karen .....this should also be released for a future set.......

Something's Missing is the song that Richard loves from the Karen Solo sessions and has suggested that he would like to complete the Arrangement , Orchestration and Production for future release.....interesting to see whether Richard does work on this outtake , which indicates Richard was not totally dismissive of Karen / Ramone Solo Project songs.......

Someday these tracks will be released....keep on hoping sooner......

I LOVE "Something's Missing"...certainly do hope that he releases this one at some point! I was SO taken with both trhis song and "Love Makin Love to You" when I first heard the unrealeased songs that I would play them over and over!

Here you go, the file can be downloaded TEN TIMES, ok?

http://rapidshare.com/files/393486936/Carp...tracks.rar.html

Features:

"Unsweetned" Nowhere man (only Karen and the piano track);
Crescent noon (version from CLSUB album, Karen sings only some of the lines, not the whole song as in the Close tou you album but I love it, her rough teen voice is quite something);
And when I die (from CLSUB album, Karen duets with this unknown lady, she "sounds black" to me, does it make any sense? It is a beautiful performance, with heartfelts vocals, chilling).

I searched for "Wendy Freeman" on Google and there are quite a few of them, interestingly one of them is this one:

It's actually Wanda Freeman you need to look for. I've tried, not much out there.
