[Old School Hound]

Okay, guys and gals, this is MY decade. I grew up in the seventies. This was my favorite decade of music. So many great memories from pre-teen years and into my teenage years. Lots of favorite female singers. I'll start with the woman who I feel possessed the purest, most clear, almost perfect singing voice ---  KAREN CARPENTER.


Have we ever heard anything like this since or will we ever hear anything like this again? Highly improbable.  Her voice was impeccable... pitch perfect... her timing and phrasing... just off the charts.   Her voice was hauntingly emotive, and reflected the deep pain she held inside. A truly singular voice ,  one for the ages!!!

I loved her so much .     I still cannot listen to her hauntingly beautiful voice without tearing up.  No one made me cry like Karen.        She was the best ever !!!
