Celebrating Jon Lord - The Rock Legend 'Lazy' Feat. Deep Purple and Stephen Bentley-Klein

On April 4, 2014, some of the best-loved musicians in the world assembled at the Royal Albert Hall to pay tribute to one of the most-missed musicians of them all: Jon Lord. “Celebrating Jon Lord” will be released as 1CD – The Composer, 2CD – The Rock Legend, 2DVD, Blu-ray, Box Set and Download on September 26th, 2014 on earMUSIC.
All product configurations feature individual cover artworks.

The Box Set features – besides the Blu-ray, 1CD The Composer and 2CD The Rock Legend – an exclusive T-shirt, a two-sided reproduction of an excerpt of Jon Lord’s original, handwritten music score for “Sarabande” - signed by Paul Mann as well as a 20 page reproduction of the evening’s original show program.
On top and as a real collector’s item, the box set also includes two very special 7-inch vinyls: the first featuring the hypnotic live version of Deep Purple’s classic “You Keep On Moving” with Glenn Hughes, Bruce Dickinson, Ian Paice, Don Airey and Micky Moody and on the B-side “Soldier Of Fortune”, both taken from the 2CD – The Rock Legend.
The second 7-inch vinyl stands in the tradition of Deep Purple as it includes the band’s touching live version of “Above And Beyond” originally from the no 1 album “NOW What?!” and here included in the magic Sunflower Jam 2014 live performance – a song dedicated to and inspired by Jon Lord. The B-side is dedicated to Lord‘s “Fantasia”.

Divided in two parts – the first focused on the classical music compositions, so dear to Jon Lord, and the second featuring a crescendo of emotions going through some of his highlights as a rock musician – the concert gave fans a chance to relive Jon Lord's remarkable and extensive musical career, remembering music from Paice, Ashton Lord, Deep Purple, his later classical compositions and everything in between – all in aid for the charity organization The Sunflower Jam.
The 83-piece Orion Orchestra performed, conducted by Paul Mann and accompanied by bands and artists such as Deep Purple, Paul Weller, Glenn Hughes, Bruce Dickinson, Rick Wakeman, Rick Wakeman, Miller Anderson, Steve Balsamo and many, many more.

Don Airey is awesome, he is the only one who can walk in Jon Lord shoes!

[andreascharous]

God looked at the world and saw Jon Lord. When he saw how he played the Hammond organ he thought to himself, nobody else has mastered this instrument like this man - he has to go to me to teach us to play this instrument! RIP Jon - You were and are the best who has ever played this instrument !!!

[Tarkus]

Don Airey what a great replacement for the late great Jon Lord, Paicey is well Paicey he will always be the best drummer I have ever seen, Morse brings the band back to life, Glover is the ever dependable reliable man at the back who should get more recognition than he does ( Welsh Git ) and Gillan is the front man personifide he was born to do that job fuckin great.

[jukup]

This is just magic. It is sad that newer bands either don't have the technical skill to play this music, or the musical sensitivity to write it. Wish DP go on forever!

[jamesedwards]

Paicey still holds the band together. Love Airey's keyboard wizardry, as well.

[santabarbara]

Thanks Jon Lord for the great music! Thanks Gillan, Paice, Glover, Airey, Morse!Gillan screams like Hughes 40 years ago! And he‘s 70!

I happened to be in London on business and checked to see who was performing as I always do.  When I seen that there was a tribute show for Jon Lord and the various artist who made up Purple were to perform, I had to go.  What a show!

[pablopistacio]

When Don hits that highest note on his Hammond, everyone knows
its Lazy . Dear Jon has left such a history of great music that the audience
knows what the song is . Great music.

[maureenwagg]

Wow. Tribute to Jon and kicking it old school on the keys....kudos to Don Airey. You honour Jon Lord by making this solo your own.

[ЮрийСалтыкарло]

Великая Музыка в исполнении Больших Мастеров. Браво!

[pauloholydiver]

Absolutely fantastic. Even the lead singer is a musician. Really Deep Purple is the best band of all times.

[Lasestrellasnomueren]

I never tire of looking at them or listening to them. They were and will be that unique, eternal and incomparable gift that only the hand of God could create such perfect harmony. An elixir for the privileged ears that we were fortunate enough to know. Thank you for so much @Deep Purple immortal voices that accompanied me from the cradle to the sarcophagus and beyond. Forever in me ❤️

[СергейОлейник-рц]

СУПЕР!!! Почувствовал себя !17-ти летним!!!

[pierluigireda]

Don Airey the only one that can follow up Jon Lord's absence. RIP Jon... Respect & Love to Don.

[ayanasedlac]

"Lazy" má tolik úžasných verzí! Don Airey hraje na klávesy s velkou láskou. Tím vzdává hold Jonovi.
Děkuji za úžasnou hudbu Deep Purple. Jonovi posílám do Rockového Nebe 💜❗

[tedcabana]

Such an awesome tribute to a great friend, and a legendary musician.

[иапрмсмитттипарол]
