Passage is the eighth studio album by American pop music duo the Carpenters. Released in 1977, it produced the striking singles "All Yous Become from Love Is a Beloved Song", "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" and "Sweet, Sugariness Grin". The Carpenters' "Sweet, Sweet Smile" (written by Robert Otha Immature and Juice Newton) was picked upwards by Land radio and put the duo in the top ten of Billboard'due south State chart in the leap of 1978.
This album was a considerable departure for the siblings and contained experimental fabric such equally the Klaatu embrace "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" single—which reached no. 32 in the Usa merely was a acme 10 hit in much of the earth (and prompted numerous letters to the Carpenters asking when Earth Contact 24-hour interval was scheduled).[1] Coincidentally, the album's release predated Steven Spielberg'due south similarly themed picture Close Encounters of the Third Kind by one calendar month. Nonetheless, the album was the group's first to fall curt of golden certification in the United states.
This is the simply Carpenters album (aside from their Christmas albums) non to contain a Richard Carpenter or John Bettis vocal and likewise the second album to not take Karen playing drums at all. It was the first studio anthology since Close to You not to use the familiar Carpenters logo on the front embrace, although a minor version of the logo appears on the dorsum cover.
Groundwork and recording [edit]
Prior to the anthology's recording, a search was made for a new Carpenters producer, prompted by the band's decreasing popularity and Richard Carpenter's struggle with production duties (caused by his addiction to sleeping pills).[1] Even so, according to Richard Carpenter, "not one major producer would sign on; radio was not quite as friendly at that fourth dimension to our type of audio and to be honest, my track record on the whole was a tough human action to follow. Appropriately, I remained producer, only I did try to arroyo this new projection from a different angle, hence my choice of songs for this album fabricated Passage a flake of a departure from our previous recordings."[ane]
Richard Carpenter recalled that "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" was "submitted to us by the publisher, and I immediately felt information technology was perfect for Karen, though now I feel differently, as I believe the song doesn't linger long enough in a lower register, a great area for Karen's vox. We contacted England's late, bang-up Peter Knight to orchestrate the song, and two others on Passage. Peter flew to Los Angeles to acquit the Los Angeles Philharmonic for the recording. (Due to a contractual agreement their name was not allowed in the credits, hence the credit of the "Overbudget Combo"). Between the 100-plus member "Phil" and the 50-vocalisation Gregg Smith Singers, the recording session had to take place on the A&Yard Sound Stage and was then wired into Studio D."[1]
