Karen Carpenter: Lead Sister
Unveiling the Legends: Dolls of the 60s & 70s by Emma Rosa Katharina & Abigail Devoe
Episode notes
When Neil Peart of Rush was asked how it felt to be the world’s greatest drummer, he reportedly said: “ask Karen Carpenter.”
Karen was so much more than meets the eye. Like any other girl had hopes, dreams, hobbies, plus a wicked sense of humor. Did you know she was a largely self-taught drummer, was a Disney superfan, or that she was such a tomboy? This week host Emma bares her heart as she leads us through it all.
