All I know is he couldn't compete with the great keyboardists of today like Brockett Parsons and Marc Delcore. Lord was slow, tiny, and white. If he were around today he'd be lucky to make it out of the Empty Bottle.

Child in Time is a really cool song.

I still really like the keyboard solo on Highway Star.

He had a really nice solo in "Hush."

As an aside, would you agree that "The Only One I Know" by The Charlatans U.K. is a total ripoff of "Hush?"

Probably today's. It's my only Jon Lord moment period.

No respect.

One of the best rock keyboardists for a couple of decades.

Hank Aaron can't keep up with today's HR hitters either btw. But he is a better keyboardist than Lord, as he can at least hit a key or two.
