I grew up in the 70s listening to her and infatuated with her, couldn't get enough of her! I'd listen to her singing "Close To You", and imagine she was singing it to *me!* ( Like I said, *infatuated!* ) Then, while I was in college, she died and I mourned her by listening to her music over and over - once I accepted that she was actually *gone!* ( and at *only 32 y.o.!* )
You remember correctly, she has (well, tragically, had) a really really good voice. Arguably the best female vocalist of the twentieth century. Passed away at 32 in February 1983 of complications from anorexia nervosa...
She looked so happy when drumming. So sad she didn't have a chance to do more before she passed away. It was prerecorded part in the back on screen, while she performed 'with herself' live with the filmed part behind her. Pretty neat actually.
Yes they had the technology back then to “duplicate her.” The original Parent Trap movie was from 1961 and featured one actress (Haley Mills) playing twins, often showing two of her in the same shot.
One more, Karen singing a cover of the Beatles' "Help!" and she's again behind the kit ripping it while singing lead. Love her! So underrated as a drummer/singer. Thank you for thinking of her and checking her out. Such a great talent, gone too song. th-cam.com/video/LeyNZaIdfi0/w-d-xo.html
Hee hee...early (and pretty well done) green screen photography...yes that's two of Karen...a lot of what you hear, typical of TV performances, is a recording...but it is a recording of Karen, and she's also playing live, you just don't hear that on TV...
The greatest voice of all time and one hell of a drummer.
And a GIRL DRUMMER in the 60 and 70s?!? And singing and drumming at the same time?!? SHE IS THE BEST!
At 6:26 Karen wasn't out of breath because she was an athletic tomboy who played softball every chance she got.

Wooden percussion is called Temple Blocks
She said she was drummer that could sing...she always looks so happy when she is playing...

I love that woman.
01:49 the guy playing the drum ("German for Stinky, stupid!") is John Denver.
It's a blue screen.
Those little wooden things are called Wood Blocks.
The technology in 1976, that you find amazing, is called video tape.
Karen was not just talented on the drums her voice was amazing as well. I am glad that people are reacting to her.
She truly had MAD skills. Gone too soon.

Theres another drum solo on youtube of her
Was that John Denver?
Yep
Yes, that was John Denver!
"Stinky Stupid" there is the late John Denver...he was featured on the same TV special...

They also had split screen technology.

React to How Eminem Spent A Quarter Billion Dollars
Nice idea bro
Check out ZZ Top 'Tube Steak Boogie'
Doc, this was such a good video to react to! But I’d love to see you react to Eric Moore or Tony Royster Jr. Two modern drumming legends right there.
Do you like the drum or this is just a request from the subs? If you like the drum you should listen to Travis Barker
This would be good for you to react to.. informative to your subscribers @ that is part 1.. here is part 2 @
