This is a video showcasing Karen Carpenter's undeniable talents as a drummer. For those who aren't aware of Karen's involvement with the drums, let it be known that they were her first passion and came before she began her career as a singer. Karen's drumming can be heard on many tracks on several Carpenters albums.
What's also most notable about Karen is that she sang and drummed simultaneously... her singing never hindered her drumming, and vice versa... she never ever hit a sour note or missed a beat. An extremely small amount of people can profess to having such a talent.

"She was a 5'4 tornado, pair of drumsticks in her hand".

  • She has her own hall. No bunch of whiny dilettantes at R & R can ever give her the honor and respect that she deserves. So to the many millions who have enjoyed her talent here and elsewhere over the years, you are her tribute. Keep listening and always remember this extraordinary talent who left us too soon. Share with as many as you can. Thanks.
