    I don't think the Four Tops version of "If I Were A Carpenter" is "better" then Darin's per se, but they made it their own and I like it best by the Tops, IMHO.

    Gosh, are you in Tops form! A man's REACH should always extend his remix.

    Karen will indeed get me for this.

    A "Hurting Each Other" megamix would now be appropriate.

    Excellent "No Matter What Sign You Are" mix, John. You bring out it's symphonic nature so well.

    Wonder what signs Mary and Cindy wished they could show Berry when they were asked to lip-synch to so many backgrounds that they had not recorded.... just sayin.... a girl's allowed to wonder.
    Miss Flo was a master of sign language, so some have said.

    I have Occupants on 45 without all the Alien intro. Wish Richard would open up the vault and give us all the original single mixes but he apparantly prefers to forever remix the back catalog.

    That book that came out Little Girl Blue is an exceptional read, much more forthcoming than the heavily edited official Carpenters one Richard collaborated on in the early nineties....

    Too bad Richard [[and I guess Herb) wouldn't allow someone of Harry, Andy or Georges caliber into the Carpenter vaults. I wonder what treasures still lie deep within.

    Thanks for the Jerry Butler megamix John. Gorgeous. Margie Joseph does a nice version of Strange I Still Love You as well.

    Plenty, theres a list floating around the web from the A&M tape files that would double their catalog! Richard has a clause in his contract that he gets final say over any Carpenters product released and he doesn't feel a lot of it is good enough to release, although fan pestering has gotten things like Rainbow Connection released. Would love a HQ version of Love Making Love To You from her solo sessions to come out but knowing how much Richard dislikes the project as a whole we'll never get it.

    Maybe we can convince Andy at least to find us some unreleased or alternate Captain & Tennille instead. I hear he's a fan. Universal has not done much with their catalog over the years in the states beyond the Song Of Joy LP on Hip-o.

    "Helpless" is one of my favorite Tops song, and it benefits tremendously from being slowed down a bit, always thought it was a bit too fast. Excellent elongation as well!
