The release date for the forthcoming "Chronicles" Box Set has been changed from its original 21 June release to 23 August 2005. Outside sources say that the artwork is still pending, but it is romoured to be a large picture that is the same as the TICKET TO RIDE album's (the sailboat picture). More news as it comes in.To view artwork,WHAT WE ALREADY KNOW:
Then on the inside we will have the 3 spots for the CD's and a little compartment that holds the 3 covers.
On the back will be a listing of the songs (without numbers or saying what album it is, just a listing of all of them in order) and have the 3 pictures of the 3 covers.
Celine Dion has a set like this with her "Unison", "Celine Dion," and "The Colour of My Love" albums.
Barbra Streisand has a set like this that has her "Funny Girl OST", "Featuring The Way We Were and All In Love is Fair", and "A Star Is Born OST" CD's. The Celine one can be found in virtually any store, especially Wal-Mart but the Barbra one is harder to find.
So, nothing to get excited over unless you are a collector.

Today, more than 20 years after their last recording, more than 20 years after Karens death, and now 35 years after Carpenters were first heard on record, Richard writes, One can only imagine the music that could have been made had Karen lived; I really feel that the best was yet to come. At least we have these recordings, and many others, as quite a legacy.
