Offering is the first album by American music duo The Carpenters. At the time of its release in 1969 it was a commercial failure and produced only one minor hit single - "Ticket to Ride", a ballad version of a song made famous by The Beatles. After the Carpenters' breakthrough however, the album was re-issued internationally under the name Ticket to Ride and sold moderately. The "Remastered Classics" CD went out of print in March 2007.[1]
