Perhaps the cornerstone of the electric organ and hard rock, Jon Lord passed away of cancer at 71 years old.

Saw Deep Purple several times in my younger days. They are true icons.

RIP Jon Lord. You will be missed.
Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

The king of the overdriven Hammond.
I got the blues as my companion.
