One of the best Keyboard Players of all time. RIP Jon. Deep Purple MkII was awesome. A personal favourite for me.
What Jon did with a Hammond Organ & a Leslie!
Very Sad!
We had the news about the cancer last year. I was hoping he would recover.

Yeah man, definitely a guy we idolized as teens. Me and a guitar playing friend of mine were hugely into R Blackmore Purple/ Rainbow/ and all the connections like Whitesnake. Love his organ sounds.

She's an equal opportunity offender, a societal wildcard. You can't control her, only hope to contain her, even then she refuses to be possessed. If she were a coin, you would spend her, unwillingly. If she were an animal, you'd free her to the wilderness.

He made the organ rock, sometimes sounding more like he was playing an electric guitar. R.I.P. Jon.
