LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES-JUNE 9, 2019…JON LORD WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST KEYBOARD PLAYERS IN ROCK HISTORY. TODAY HE WOULD HAVE BEEN 78 YEARS OF AGE. LORD WAS THE CO-FOUNDER OF DEEP PURPLE AND WAS CONSIDERED THE LEADER OF THE GROUP UNTIL 1970. TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER MEMBERS, HE COLLABORATED ON MOST OF THE BAND’S MOST POPULAR SONGS. LORD AND PAICE WERE THE ONLY CONTINUOUS PRESENCE IN THE BAND FROM 1968-1976. HE ALSO PLAYED WITH WHITESNAKE, PAICE ASHTON LORD, THE ATWOODS, AND THE FLOWER POT MEN. LORD PASSED AWAY ON JULY 16, 2012 AFTER BEING DIAGNOSED WITH PANCREATIC CANCER.
I THINK THIS IS THE ULTIMATE JON LORD SONG, A LIVE VERSION OF ‘LAZY’
HERE’S ‘HIGHWAY STAR’ FROM DEEP PURPLE
AND THIS IS PURE GOLD, HERE’S AN ISOLATED TRACK OF LORD ON DEEP PURPLE’S ‘HIGHWAY STAR’
