The discography of the American pop group the Carpenters, consists of twelve studio albums, two christmas albums, two live albums, forty-six singles, and numerous compilation albums. The duo made up of Karen Carpenter (lead vocals and drums) and her elder brother Richard Carpenter (keyboards and vocals).

The siblings started their musical career together since the latter half of 1960s. In October 1969, a half year after they made a contract with A&M Records, the Carpenters released their debut album Offering (later its title was changed to "Ticket to Ride"). Within a year, they came into prominence with the chart-topping single "(They Long to Be) Close to You", a cover version of Bacharach/David composition.

The Carpenters garnered worldwide commercial success, scoring big hits mainly in the first half of the 1970s. RIAA-certified sales of their albums have been estimated at over 24.5 million units.^[1] In the United Kingdom, they are ranked at the seventh top-selling albums artist on the official record chart of the 1970s.^[2] They have also been the third-best-selling international music act in Japanese market, only behind Mariah Carey and The Beatles.^[3]^[4]^[5] To date, they have reportedly sold more than 100 million copies of records worldwide.^[6]

Note

"Top of the World" charted four times in Japan, at #21 in 1972 and again in 1973 (to coincide with the song's U.S. success), when it peaked at #52. In 1995 it was the B-side of the reissue of "I Need to Be in Love," and subsequently it charted a fourth time (as an A-side) at #83.
"Sweet, Sweet Smile" peaked at #8 on Billboard's Country singles chart.
"Superstar" and "For All We Know" were released as a double A-side in the UK.
"I Won't Last a Day Without You" was originally released as an A-side in the UK in 1972 with "Goodbye to Love" as the B-side. However, the sides were switched shortly after the record's release. The former was later released as an A-side in the UK in 1974 to coincide with its first U.S. release as an A-side.
"Only Yesterday" and "Happy" were released as a double A-side in the UK. Both tracks feature on the compilation album "The Singles 1974-1978", which was not released in North America.
"Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" reached #1 in the Republic of Ireland, becoming the duo's biggest hit there.
The UK re-issue of "Merry Christmas, Darling" in 1990 features the second recorded version of the song from their 1978 Christmas Portrait album as opposed to the original 1970 version.
