Reviews:

Another 'Cheap-O Universal Product'!

Admit it...you have most of these songs on another Carpenters compilation or any of the original albums.

Why no "Close To You", when you get "I Believe You", "Love is Surrender" and "Maybe It's You"? And "I Just Fall In Love Again" is what an ANNE MURRAY compilation is for! All of which many listeners, whether long-time fans, or new ones, in particular, wouldn't really be interested in. And even "Sing" is missing!

Once again, these 20th Century Masters are all about Universal's making a quick buck, as opposed to an artist's faithfully representative collection.

EXCELLENT COLLECTION FOR THE CARPENTERS COMPLETIST

Several of these tracks are newly remastered with new arrangements. Most of the drum patterns are stronger and Richard Carpenter has updated quite a few of his keyboard parts. "Love Is Surrender" is most notably updated. Thank you again Richard for your spectacular work as an arranger, producer, musician and songwriter!
"This Masquerade" is my favorite track on this set. The song is dark and mysterious and the musical arrangement is intense. This song should really be promoted for radio airplay. It's a definite hit!

Well, The Mastering Is Good

The idea of Universal's Millennium Collection to highlight various artists catalogs has been going on for a few years now, I thought Richard was going to skip an entry to this series. Um, I was wrong. Instead of looking at this project as a blank canvas, featuring an exclusive remix available only on this collection, or maybe an outtake of some kind, we are treated to another collection of previously remixed singles already available on domestically released collections. It's a good highlight or introduction to the Carpenters body of work but if you're a completist, take comfort in knowing you're not missing a thing.
