A Wrecking Crew guy?
@jonathanmacpac
3 жыл бұрын
Tony was an LA studio guy, but not one of the Wrecking Crew. When the band was running through rehearsal, Peluso began adding a rock edge to his solos. Richard Carpenter loved it and urged the guitarist to push it heavier. The combination of easy rock ballads with heavy guitar became a staple of 70s pop. Note: Peluso also voiced the radio DJ on the "oldies" side of the "Now and Then" album.

Yes, he does a good job there. The gentleman explains his work on this song in the documentary on the Carpenters, circa 1997. -------------------------------------------------------------- Richard said he got the idea from watching an old movie where this songwriter talks of the finest hit he ever wrote, "Goodbye to Love", but you actually never hear the song.... So Richard thought... "That's a great title, 'Goodbye to Love' " ... and so he started composing the literal song... his song! Explained in the documentary too.

The person that created this video just faded the album track sound out before it was done--I presume because the video doesn't last as long as the album track.

I believe this song was what started his career with the Carpenters. Richard and Karen remembered him from being part of an opening act band from a couple of years earlier. Karen, whose voice he idolized, called him to say they wanted to do a fuzz guitar solo for this song. That had never been done for a ballad before, but he said yes, and remained with the Carpenters until Karen's death. I think a few years ago he said that that he had heard virtually every recorded song going back to a Edison's "Mary Had A Little Lamb". He considered Karen Carpenter to be the greatest singer that ever lived.

However, many Carpenters fans today still admire the song for its respectful uniqueness.

I love the way they sing and play: simple and natural. It is not a show, they are not pretending. They perform because they feel the music and express it with her voice and their instruments, not with fake actions. Excellent!

Karen’s voice and sound were beyond compare. She was pure singer/musician. Even Ella Fitzgerald said how beautiful her voice was. She was so true to her song.

Karen Carpenter was a beautiful addition to what we consider what makes life worth living. Think about her voice and try to hear it tonight while you fall asleep. You'll see.

Tremendous song. Brilliant harmony, melody, lyric, lead vocal and guitar solo. This transcends MOR and all categorisations, The best thing the Carpenters ever did IMHO.

Some say that the electric guitar in the middle and at the end is inappropriately harsh and discordant to the song but I say it just adds to its intensity

During my early teen years The Carpenters were admired by so many people. People of all ages so enjoyed and respected these two amazing talents. Karen must have suffered so much emotionally. But she was a beautiful lady with a beautiful soul. And I do not think ANY female voice can be compared to Karen.

I'm 60 years old now, but I can't help thinking if someone had just held her tightly and told her how much she was loved and adored, it could have made all the difference..... ? I guess we'll never know, now..... 😢❤
