More Info:

Out of print in the U.S.! Digitally remastered edition of this 1977 album from the American Soft Pop duo. When siblings Richard and Karen Carpenter released their debut album in 1969, nobody could predict the enormous success they would achieve throughout the next decade. With Karen's angelic voice and Richard's stellar arrangements, the Carpenters became a musical force to be reckoned with. Their popularity spread from the U.S. to Europe, Japan, Australia and beyond. Even 25+ years after Karen's death, they are one of the most recognizable Pop duos in music history, and deservedly so. Passage features eight tracks including 'All You Get from Love Is a Love Song' and a cover of Klaatu's 'Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft'. Universal.

Reviews:

''Passage'' is the eighth album by American popular music duo The Carpenters. Released in 1977, it produced the hit singles "All You Get from Love Is a Love Song", "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" and "Sweet, Sweet Smile".

This album was a considerable departure for the siblings and contained experimental material such as the ''Star Wars''-like "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" single - which reached #32 in the US but was a top ten hit in much of the world. It was their first album to fall short of gold standard in the United States.

The Carpenters' version of "Sweet Sweet Smile" (written by an up-and-coming singer/songwriter named Juice Newton) was picked up by Country radio and put the duo in the top ten of ''Billboards Country chart in the spring of 1978. - Wikipedia
