Diesel Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Very saddened to hear the news of the keyboard maestro's passing at age 71.His growling Hammond organ was as much a defining part of the mighty Deep Purple sound as Blackmore's guitar or Gillan's vox.His 'Highway Star' and 'Burn' solos are unsurpassed in the genre and still put the hairs on the back of my neck up.RIP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delboy Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Not one of his better known pieces of work but I always loved this track by Ride with keys by the late Jon Lord... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
