Finally, a very complete and comprehensive compilation of the Carpenters albumsBy Irene EconomouRick Henry's retrospective, "Carpenters - Album by Album: Song by Song," is a thoughtful, well-executed compendium spanning Karen and Richard Carpenter's albums produced from the years of 1969 ("Offering"- aka "Ticket to Ride") through 2004 ("As Time Goes By"). The collection also includes the solo albums of Karen and Richard. It is an easy-to-follow, thorough listing of each album, including album credits, listing of songs within each album, interesting details or history about the songs, and noteworthy commentary by Rick, who also personally ranks each album. He has even included convenient links for those wishing to purchase any of the albums on .com.What I especially like about this compilation is that Rick has managed to provide not only a convenient reference eBook in a concise format, but also to provide just enough rich information related to the songs of the albums (including info about the songwriters) to make this eBook a very interesting read, too.

Desideri Advisor: Leah Anderst This thesis explores how a squeaky-clean object transformed into a girl-next-door icon and became a role model for generations to come.
