Biography:
The Carpenters were an American vocal and instrumental duo consisting of siblings Karen and Richard Carpenter. With their light, airy melodies and meticulously crafted, clean arrangements, the duo stood in direct contrast with the excessive, gaudy pop/rock of the '70s; yet they became one of the most popular artists of the decade, scoring 12 Top Ten hits, including three number one singles.
Karen Carpenter's calm, often somber voice was the most distinctive element of their music

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
This song is a little pop gem from the long unreleased solo record
Karen Carpenter made when Richard was in a recovery center.
I don't know who wrote it, but it's a tasty, jangly tune.
(The recording has Peter Cetera on backing vocals)

Makin' Love In The Afternoon- from the Karen Carpenter solo LP
G A7 D Dsus 2x
G Gmaj7 Em Bm C Cm
Makin' love in the afternoon Makin' love to another Beatle tune
And I know you're feelin' the same way too
G Gmaj7 Em Bm C Cm
All alone on a sunny day On our own and we had to get away
And I know that I couldn't live without
G A7 D Dsus D
You, Don't ever leave me alone
G A7 D Dsus D
Baby without you, I'd never make it alone
Makin' love on a sunny day
Makin' love in a very special way
And I hope you're feelin' the way I do
When you're here, When you're next to me,
When you're near it's the only place to be
Cause I know that I couldn't live without you
Don't ever leave me alone
Livin' without you, I couldn't make it alone
