I have to pass on this. There is no way I can afford to pay that much money for one record. I know it is a collector's item (I'd love to own it) but I still can't afford it. :( Best of luck to all those bidding!

Update: OMG! Offering went for $355.00. I'm sure the seller is doing a happy dance. lol Congratulations to the winner!

A few of my favorite YouTube comments regarding Karen.

I really believe that the physical wavelength of Karen's vocals hits the listener right in the part of the brain that governs emotions. It's artistry, sure; but it FEELS within you...it is a real and true physical sensation.....

I was playing in bands in Calif starting the same time as Karen. Believe me, we all knew she was incredible and one of a kind. If there are Angels, she was one. I loved her then and always will.

A voice, so rich, so pure, it 's vibration goes straight to your heart, penetrates the deeper emotional layers of the soul and forces a meltdown of the muscles holding your tears......a voice likes this comes around once in a 1000 years....the sharp contrast of the pain Karen suffered never stops to amaze me.....nothing comes for free in this dualistic world we are forced to live in.

....a Pure Angelic Being with a Beautiful and Haunting Voice. She's definitely in the Heavenly Choir...

It's so cold! I'm going to drink a nice cup of hot chocolate and listen to Karen's gorgeous voice. That should warm me up. I hope everyone is able to stay safe and warm this winter.

It's not Monday but it sure is a Rainy Day here.

Hauntingly beautiful. I have goose bumps. Karen is Love.
