Karen Carpeneter died 42 years ago.

Today is February 4th, 2025. So today marks 42 years since Karen Carpenter passed away. This is a sad time, but a very good time to listen to her most beautiful voice and look at some of your favorite pictures of Karen. Personally, I look at Karen's eyes, they melt my heart!

I will be listening to her tonight. BTW there is a young woman on YouTube who has practiced singing the Carpenters songs and is truly amazing as she sounds almost identical with her intonation and range.

Not her but nice to know young people are appreciative of her great music.

Her voice was iconic and was an indelible part of my childhood, and many may not realize that she was a very competent drummer as well.  I’ll definitely be giving her a listen today.

She had a fantastic voice. Her brother was a wizard at production and the recording quality was always exceptional.
