Gold: Greatest Hits is a compilation album by American duo Carpenters released in 2000.[1]

Overview

The 20 track compilation covers the period from 1969 to 1981. Some editions contained "Hurting Each Other" as a bonus track.

The compilation was repackaged as a 2001 dutch Yesterday Once More: De Nederlandse Singles Collectie by replacing "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" with "Sweet, Sweet Smile" and placing it as track 6.[2]

The cover art of the album replicates the 1992 Gold: Greatest Hits compilation album by ABBA.

The accompanying video album of the same name followed in 2002.

35th Anniversary Edition

Gold: 35th Anniversary Edition is an expanded two-disc version of the compilation released in early 2004.[3] It contains all of the tracks of the earlier 2000 version and expands the timeline to the duo's latest release, As Time Goes By. It also features the single version of "Solitaire" for the first time on CD.[4]

The Canadian 2005 release of the album is simply titled Gold, without a subtitle, and features a colour photo cover, not the original black cover.
