Karen Carpenter

 

 

Who Signed the Carpenters?

Who was the Superstar on the Radio ?

Who put them on top of the world ?

 

• Herb Alpert ...

Unless it WAS a guitarist...

 

• Herb Alpert CBS Sunday Morning

Alpert has recorded 28 albums that have appeared on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart, five of which reached No. 1; he has been awarded 14 platinum albums and 15 gold albums. Alpert is the only musician to have reached No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 as both a vocalist ("This Guy's in Love with You", 1968) and as an instrumentalist ("Rise", 1979).

 

• Molly Boy reminds me of listening to

The Moody Blues for the first time

on Bob Hanzlian's Stereo with Headphones.

He gave me ALL of his Moody Blues Vinyl,

when the CD's came out...

 

I met Bob at St. Gerard's Mission '75,

when I was a discussion leader.

Bob was my Best Man, and though

he died young, he appeared to me

in a daytime vision,

and said:

"Yeah !

and we can SMOKE up here TOO !!!"

 

( I had warned him about smoking 2 packs a day...)

 

 

My high school friend Richard

used to send Karen Carpenter

Birthday presents...
