Release Notes:

This double-CD set was probably too much of the Carpenters for the average fan,
but just the same, it touches bases that The Singles misses, and it is
rewarding. The 1998 remastering (catalog number 31454 1000-2) is doubly
attractive, as a mid-priced item with 24-bit remastered sound and new notes by
Paul Grein. The 28 songs, totaling more than 110 minutes of music, still have a
few holes, like their cover of "Beechwood 4-5789" and the deeply atmospheric
"Crescent Noon," but every one of their albums is represented from Ticket to
Ride on up. The remastering makes all of the difference in the enjoyment of the
songs, presenting Karen Carpenter's voice and Richard Carpenter's arrangements
in close, rich detail and intimacy; it all makes the care that was put into the
original performances completely worth the effort. The duo's music never sounded
less like recordings and more like performances, a fact -- brought home by the
crystalline tones of Joe Osborn's bass -- that may distress those who merely
want to relive their memories of hearing these songs on the radio. There will
also be a few worthwhile surprises even for the casual listener, including the
melodic dance number "(Want You) Back in My Life Again" from their final album
and the rhapsodic "I Just Fall in Love Again" from Passage. This set is a decent
compromise between the superficiality of The Singles and the deep but awkward
construction of the four-CD boxed set, made more valuable by the remastering,
which renders its sound superior to that of the same material on the box.

This is the remastered version, as identified by the cat number. The other rip
was internal, and was improperly encoded with a -b 128 switch, so here's a
properly ripped and encoded one. Enjoy!
