Paul Simon's former producer has launched a scathing attack on the singer, branding him a 'p***k' and claiming he bullied a severely anorexic Karen Carpenter, in his new book.

Glenn Berger, an engineer and producer at A&R Studios, claimed that former half of hit, 1960s pop duo Simon and Garfunkel simply 'didn't seem to care much about other human beings.'

Never Say No to a Rock Star refers to one incident where Berger says Simon cruelly criticized a seriously ill Carpenter's work.

He wrote that Simon confronted the singer 'in a voice that combined derision, snobbishness, concern, and alarm . . . 'Karen, what are you doing? This stuff is awful!' Page Six reports.
