Carpenters Lead Guitarist Tony Peluso - R.I.P.
Mr. Peluso was also a well regarded Motown producer and will be remembered for the soaring guitar solo on "Goodbye To Love".

Another talent musician/producer from Motown is gone. This sucks!

Jesus... and the Motown heroes are dying quicker like flies getting hit by the squatter. Dave van DePitte died just last year, then Ollie, now Tony... A great guitarist too. | |

He also co-wrote "Happy" on the Horizon album.
A very tasteful guitarist.

I believe Tony was also the DJ used in the intro to "Calling Occupants Of Interplanetary Craft."
Sad....he was a very talented guitar player and totally added the cherry to "Goodbye To Love". | |
