   1 of 1 Yahoo! Users found this Karen Carpenter review helpful Although I find it deeply depressing that she never had the chance to explore this side of her jazz/pop milieu, it is a refreshing side that could have launched her career in a new direction, making her more akin to Sergio Mendez or Kenny G than to the top 40 cuts infecting the American pop landscape.

   I don't think she ever realized her potential or her influence to those my age (baby boomers).
   
   After destroying disco albums in 1980, people have given disco a second chance, and disco is now entrenched in our society. Why can't people give Karen Carpenter a second chance? She sang a lot of songs that people have never listened to. ...
