A sad day in the rock world. His work with Deep Purple and Whitesnake is the stuff of legend. Nobody could play a Hammond like Jon Lord.
RIP :bluesad:

Whitesnake are still going, as are Deep Purple.
Very bummed. The man took a Church related musical instrument - the Organ! -- and made it ROCK.
Listened to my Deepest Purple best-of CD several times today in tribute.

Hmmm....I'd better look them up. I could have sworn at least Whitesnake had broken up. Thanks for the info. :wink:
Sad news. Good night, JON, your contribution is legendary.
