THE CARPENTERS - LIVE BBC Sept 1971 PART 2 OF 2

Live at the BBC was a live, videotaped studio concert performed by The Carpenters. They lip-synched some tunes, like "Help" and the Burt Bacharach Medley, but most of the songs on the BBC Concert were live. It was performed and aired on BBC on September 25, 1971. VH-1 has televised the concert for American audiences, however in order to fit it into a half-hour time slot, (with commercials), they left out "And When He Smiles", "I Fell in Love With You", "That on the Road Look", and "Lust for Earl and the Married Woman". In addition to singing, Karen also plays the drums during some of the songs.

Super stuff!
I guess the miming (lip-synching) is due to it being rather difficult to replicate multi-tracked backing vocals that were a trade mark of the 'Carpenter's Sound'.
Richard is a superb musician, writer and musical arranger.
Karen had THE voice.
Wonderful.
