Given he wrote not one but two songs about a woman named Karen, obviously she is (was?) someone of importance to him, plus I seem to recall that when someone asked who she is/was, his reply was something along the lines of, "No one will ever know." Yet today, "Karen" usually means this lady:

I don't think "today's 'Karen'" listens to Koltrane nor says "Religion kills more than it saves ya, man".
