Deep Purple keyboardist Jon Lord dies
Jon Lord, the keyboardist who gave the British classic rock band Deep Purple
its depth and heavy sonics, died Monday at the London Clinic after a battle
with pancreatic cancer. He was 71.
Lord began his musical life steeped in classical piano, but became a session
musician after falling under the spell of early rockers such as Jerry Lee
Lewis. He reportedly played an uncredited piano part on the Kinks’ “You
Really Got Me.” After meeting guitarist Ritchie Blackmore in another band,
the two started Deep Purple, known both for such early stoner-rock favorites
as “Smoke on the Water” as well as for compositional complexity. The
latter ambition was fully realized on Lord’s “Concerto for Group and
Orchestra,” which the band first performed at the Royal Albert Hall in
London in 1969 with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
In the ‘70s, the lineup of Blackmore, Lord, singer Ian Gillan, drummer Ian
Paice and bassist Roger Glover had several bestselling albums, including “
Deep Purple in Rock” and “Machine Head.” Lord left the band in 1976, later
joining Whitesnake as a keyboardist and starting his own ensemble, Paice,
Ashton and Lord. Deep Purple re-united in 1984 to a warm reception, and Lord
also revisited “Concerto” on the occasion of its 30th anniversary. Lord
continued to play with the group until 2002, and announced his cancer
diagnosis last year.
Rock musicians including Yes’ Rick Wakeman, Rage Against the Machine’s Tom
Morello and members of Deep Purple-influenced bands such as Anthrax and Iron
Maiden all lamented Lord’s passing, with Morello tweeting: "RIP the great
Jon Lord, Deep Purple's cornerstone/keyboardist. So many great great songs
and that incredible SOUND of his! Thankyou."
