In the latest installment of his musical journey, Richard Carpenter brings us his Piano Songbook, a collection of well-known hits reimagined with his classic piano stylings. Known for his ability to blend pop and easy-listening music, this album showcases Carpenter's talents in a whole new light.

Carpenter's delicate touch on the keys adds an air of sophistication to timeless classics like "We've Only Just Begun" and "Rainy Days and Mondays".

One standout track on the album is Carpenter's rendition of "Top of the World", which is both hauntingly beautiful and irresistibly catchy. His piano playing is nothing short of mesmerizing, drawing you in and holding you captive until the very last note.

Another highlight is the unexpected yet delightful cover of The Carpenters' own hit "Superstar", which showcases Carpenter's versatility as a musician. His interpretation of the song is fresh and inventive, breathing new life into an old favourite.

Overall, Richard Carpenter's Piano Songbook is a must-listen for fans of easy-listening music and piano enthusiasts alike.
