Description: Demos for Karen Carpenter ~ Songwriter releases collection of rejected Carpenters songs: "Demos for Karen Carpenter" ~ I MISS YOU MOST WHEN IT RAINS This is a 4 song vinyl EP - mintSongs by Kevin Cavanaugh ~ there is no contribution of Karen or Richard Carpenter on these recordings. Karen's voice was created by The New AI Tech.Cavanaugh's inspiration for this unique project stems from his deep admiration for the "Close To You" "We've Only Just Begun" 1970's popstar and her iconic vocals. With great care and attention to detail, Cavanaugh composed nine heartfelt songs specifically tailored in tribute to The Carpenter's musical legacy. Speaking about the project, Cavanaugh expressed his excitement for the opportunity to collaborate, in a way, with Karen Carpenter: "I started learning the piano at the age of eight, from the inspiration of The Carpenters music and records. I began writing songs as a teenager hoping to ONE DAY hear Karen sing one of them. Luckily for me, I was able to hand deliver a song of mine to Richard Carpenter on Nov 6 1974 at The LC Walker Arena soundcheck in Muskegon, Michigan. The song was called "So Many Days". Three weeks later I received a hand written letter from their A&M Records representative Ed Sulzer stating the song was not up to Carpenters standards. But, he also welcomed me to send any other songs directly to him. I was only 12 years old. I ended up sending dozens of different songs to him at A&M Records over the years, but with no success."Now fifty years later, " I was able to realize what some of those songs would have sounded like."
