Carpenters - The Singles 1969-1973 LP/Comp. (1973 SA press) VG/VG-

Discs a solid VG: clean, glossy, plays like a Polaroid of your mom and dad in love. Sleeves a strong VG minus, just a little tired from decades of knowing exactly what youre feeling. Every track is a soft-focus missile aimed straight at your tear ducts. Melancholy wrapped in gold foil. Come for Close to You, stay for the ache you forgot you still carried.
