One of the best keyboard players in rock music, and a great composer.

I just picked up a copy of their album and the booklet says this was their last show and Ashton actually broke his leg when he fell off the stage, no wonder he looked in pain!

When actors and musicians are bizarrely told to "break a leg" before a performance to wish them "good luck" in an ironic way, it's very rarely taken quite so literally. Confused

It's interesting that Jon Lord participated in a live performance of David Bedford's The Odyssey. Jon Lord on synthesizer along with Mike Ratledge, Dave Lawson, Mike Oldfield and several others performing the music of The Odyssey at the Royal Albert Hall in 1977.

I have this on cd .The tape has a few drop outs however its a very good listen. This was a special event...but if you are not a fan of David Bedford it may seem irrelevant and boring. I think it's a timeless performance and it's interesting how Jon Lord invested time into the project...

Doing it all for charidee:- - Five legendary names In Rock - Jon Lord, Ian Gillan, Brian May, Tony iommi & Nick McBrain - get together in the studio to raise money for the victims of the 1998 Armenian earthquake. Who Cares?

I'm a massive fan of his early solo work, particularly 'Gemini Suite' and 'Sarabande'.

To me the Gemini Suite is like a suite of 6 mini-concertos, as each one features a different solo instrument (or voice), and as a project is a logical progression from the Concerto for Group and Orchestra.

In my digital music collection I actually file Jon Lord's solo career under 'Classical Crossover'.

I haven't yet managed to acquire any Jon Lord CD's, but he's filed under Symphonic Prog in my Prog Britannia blog. Smile

Classical Crossover sounds just as applicable though. Thumbs Up

My Classical Crossover category is a bit of a mixed bag as it is also where the likes of Sky and Vanessa-Mae reside in my collection.

Sky and Vanessa-Mae are in my Classical  Crossover collection too, although they're both outnumbered by Sarah Brightman CD's. Smile
