Carpenters is the third studio album by the Carpenters. Released on May 14, 1971, it was their most successful studio album ever, reaching number 2 on the Billboard 200 chart and number 12 in the UK. With the hit songs "For All We Know", "Rainy Days and Mondays" and "Superstar", Carpenters solidified Karen Carpenter's reputation as one of the most accomplished vocalists of the 20th century.
It has been said that the strength of these recordings is what caused Richard Carpenter to ask his sister to front the band for their live performances instead of playing behind the drums. Amongst many fans, the album has simply been referred to as "The Tan Album", because the original LP cover, complete with overlapping flap, looked like an oversized tan envelope, and is presumably a play on The Beatles' so-called White Album.
In Cash Box's Top 100 Albums of 1971, Carpenters was listed as one of the year's ten biggest albums. This is the first album to feature the familiar Carpenters logo.
By 2002, New Edition were performing as the quintet of Ralph Tresvant, Ricky Bell, Ronnie DeVoe, Michael Bivins and Johnny Gill, but they hadn't recorded a new studio album since 1996'sHome Again. After having successfully fought to get out of their long term contract with MCA Records (in which they eventually won back all their masters from the albums they recorded for that label), the re-energized group signed with Bad Boy Records the same year. It, however, took nearly two years for the album to be released, as the group struggled with Sean Combs, Bad Boy CEO, over creative control. The album, titled One Love, was finally released in November 2004.
Release and reaction
Early buzz and hype over the new album led to One Love debuting at number twelve on the Billboard 200 and number five on the Billboard'sTop R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. The group, however, wasn't pleased when "Hot 2Nite" (which they felt didn't cater to their maturing audience) was chosen as the album's first single. The song peaked at an underwhelming number thirty five on Billboard's R&B singles chart, and number eighty-seven on the Billboard Hot 100. The underwhelming public reception of the album and its first single led to there being no more being released, while label promotion for the album also stalled. Angered over Bad Boy's poor promotion of the album, the group asked to be let go of their contract. The request was granted in November 2005. Despite One Love's failure to live up to commercial expectations, it was certified gold. After the stint with Bad Boy, the group soldiered on and kept on touring throughout 2005-2007. After this album, original member Bobby Brown officially returned to the group making the group a sextet again.
"One Love" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Carlene Carter. It was released in August 1991 as the fourth single from the album I Fell in Love. The song reached number 33 on the BillboardHot Country Singles & Tracks chart. It was written by Carter, Howie Epstein and Perry Lamek.

Karen Carpenter was born on March 2, 1950, in New Haven, Connecticut. With her brother Richard, she formed the band The Carpenters and achieved great success.
The Carpenters signed with A&M Records in 1969 and found success in the 1970s. However, behind the scenes, Karen was struggling with anorexia nervosa.
She started dieting during her teenage years, first following the Stillman diet, which involved high protein and low carbs.
Karen's weight dropped to 120 pounds due to a diet, and she maintained this weight for the early years of the Carpenters. In 1973, she felt she looked heavy in a photo of herself performing on stage.
Karen’s response to this photo could be a sign of body dysmorphic disorder, a condition where individuals become obsessed with certain aspects of their appearance and perceive themselves differently than reality. At the time, little was known about mental conditions and eating disorders, so Karen had to struggle as best she could.
She hired a personal trainer but ended up looking heavier due to gaining muscle. Wanting to be thinner, she fired the trainer and started her weight loss program. Soon, Karen weighed just 91 pounds, looking visibly frail and gaunt, causing concern among fans.
Many people questioned if Karen might be ill, but the singer repeatedly denied any problems. Eventually, with the help of friends and family, Karen sought treatment from a New York City psychotherapist named Steven Levenkron.
In the early 1980s, Karen used thyroid medication and laxatives to lose weight, leading to serious health complications.
In 1982, Karen filed for divorce from her husband and began discussing plans for a new album with her brother as she was determined to get her life back on track. However, she tragically passed away before she could fulfill her dreams. Her last public appearance was on January 11, 1983, she saw her brother for the last time on February 1st and passed away on February 4th.
The autopsy of Karen Carpenter revealed that her death was caused by "emetine cardiotoxicity due to anorexia nervosa," with her use of ipecac syrup contributing to her demise.
After her passing, Karen Carpenter's struggle with anorexia helped shed light on eating disorders. Her family established the Karen A. Carpenter Memorial Foundation to raise awareness and support research on treatments.
Karen's eating disorder had a significant impact on her life, but she is best remembered as a highly talented young woman with one of the greatest voices in pop music. She brought a lot of joy to fans around the world.
