Tony peluso was a great lead guitarist, I had the pleasure of working with him in the 1980's, I'm a session drummer Tony was a 1 of a kind player MAY HE R.I P. ALONG WITH KAREN GOD BLESS THERE SOULS AMEN. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

this is my favorite carpenter's song..

Tony's solo is one of the best ever written.It revolutionised pop music, because "fuzz guitar" wasn't accepted in pop music - only rock music. One of my teachers toured with The Carpenters as a horn player and he was a really old school jazz guy, but he loved Tony's solo and raved about it.

[davidmcgarry]

Probably the greatest guitar solo of all time, and this talented young man performs it superbly.

[Kedbuka]

Very cool to hear Richard talk about the creation of the song. And for Tony to give him credit for pushing him to rip on that solo.

[davidedwards]

one of the greatest, most underrated guitar solo s ever, a true masterpiece.

[Rob-fxdw]

One of the best guitar solos I have ever heard.

[QHarefield]

I was a very 'cool' 21 year-old when this single was released, and I was no way a Carpenters fan.
And then I heard Tony's outstanding solo at the end, over the choral 'aaahhs', and it made my hair stand on end! (Still does - what's left of it!) I have been a fan ever since. What a great pity that he died so young.
Well done, JY Lee - you absolutely nailed it!

[marcovanbastard]

Hey kid, you certainly nailed that. Good Job!!

[HHH-yero]

I’m sure it has been searched for in a decades since, but, hopefully, someday, somebody will uncover the uncut final recording of this song, with the extended guitar outro, not faded. That would be a gold mine find.

Glad this got the recognition it deserves as groundbreaking & masterful! It remains an iconic ear on the 70's rock era.

I cry EVERY time I hear this song - and JY's playing created the same effect - boo hoo hoo - what a PERFECT song! - the melody, the singing, the lyrics, the band. Beyond belief in beauty!! God bless Karen and Tony.

This song stuck out to me the first time I heard it precisely because it sounded sort of like the “first of a kind” by being this ballad with a kickass guitar solo. Great song.

[Miserereion]

0:26 That moment when the song transitioned from old Richard's voice to Karen's, makes my eyes teary. Reminds me of my parents and childhood, how fast time flies. Tempus fugit. By the way, great job on the cover Mr. Lee, you nailed it.

[trapperkcmo]

this is my favorite carpenters song. i was 13 and it was in heavy rotation on the FM station i listened to. it sounded so perfect. it still does. btw, i cry every time i hear that phrasing at the end. it makes you want to collapse into it. its a miracle.

[oficialcesarleitao]

I love Carpenters, and this song is very beautiful.

[johnwyonch]

Thanks for keeping that amazing guitar solo alive, you nailed it son.

[MarcusStaAnaBurSelF]

You are amazing. Tony will be proud of you.

[garylove]

wow love to hear youngsters…. I am considerably old switching on to classics and playing them with such skill and precision. Peluso would be proud of you.

[frankburns]
