2025 is rushing by. It’s March. And March is a very busy month in music history.
- The Who frontman Roger Daltrey celebrated his 81st birthday on March 1
- Karen Carpenter was born 75 years ago today. As one-half of The Carpenters with her older brother Richard, Karen was behind some of the most beloved and gorgeous pop songs ever written and recorded.
Lou Reed, whether as a member of The Velvet Underground or as a solo artist is arguably one of the most influential figures of the past 75 years or so — and this is despite the fact that The Velvet Underground was never commercially successful.
Happy birthday, Lou! Happy birthday, wherever you are!
