TREASURES is a Japanese compilation from around 1987. It’s idea was to present a compilation of Carpenters songs that were not hits, but rather favored album tracks. As such, it’s a tremendous treat for fans, who get to hear the less frequently anthologized songs in an organized fashion. As a further treat, Richard remixed a number of the early tracks (most of Disc One), so some of those mixes make their only appearance on CD here.
