Two brand new DVD / CD packages with historic recordings featuring Jon Lord, Deep Purple and Tony Ashton have just been added to the Jon Lord Music Shop.
Tony Ashton & Friends
Endangered Species Live At Abbey Road, 2CD+DVD
Filmed and recorded at Abbey Road at the Tony Ashton beneficiary show his friends put together for him in 2000 after he was taken seriously ill in the late 90s. (Photo above from DVD.)
Featuring Tony Ashton himself with his ‘mate and old mentor’ Jon Lord plus Ian Paice, Bernie Marsden, Micky Moody, Neil Murray, John Entwhistle and many more, it includes a lengthy and highly enjoyable jam session with Tony Ashton’s own band.
The evening also saw two reunions; Whitesnake’s classic lineup got together for the first time (Lord, Paice, Marsden, Moody, Murray – without Coverdale) and so did Paice Ashton Lord for a couple of songs from the Malice In Wonderland album.
