Najsmutniejszy dzień w moim życiu. To tak jakby odszedł ktoś bliski. Kochałem jego muzykę i jego skromną osobę. Dało mi być na koncercie Jon’a w Sali Kongresowej i to pozostanie w moim sercu…Jon i jego muzyka. Żal i łzy…
How can I see
When the light is gone out
How can I hear
When you speak so silently
Thank you Sir!
Lord of the Hammond guided me with his music through my whole life.
BEFORE I FORGET
Thank you for all Mr. Lord

Thank You Jon for the great music from venezuela
Jon & Family,
You have literally been a part of my life since 1972 when I purchased Machine Head. With that I was hooked. Thank you for your music and contribution to the industry.
There are comfort in the words found at Rev. 21:4, “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
It is something beyond the mountains, beyond the flowers and the singing, there is something behind the stars, behind the hot heart of mine.
its so sad
You will be greatly missed.You are my alltime favorite keyboard player.
RIP
Frank
Thank you Jon Lord for the wonderful music you made.

What a talented and inspirational musician we bow our head in honour Thank you :(Jon
I’ve been a purple fan since the 70’s and I’m too a keyboardist who has admired the amazing talent of Jon and when I heard the news today it deeply hit me hard as I always looked to him as a mentor and I’m deeply grateful for the years he has provided the world with such masterpieces and the world has lost a great man. To Jon’s family my condolences and may God be with you in the days ahead.
God Bless Jimmy (Calgary, AB)
Nos dejaste , pero nos enseñaste que se puede llevar las teclas hasta donde te de la imaginacion tu musica no tiene limites ni techo ,gracias muchas gracias , que descanses maestro
Schon als Kind in den 60/70ern eine riesen Inspiration fuer viele meines Alters. Dies bis heute. Vielen Dank für die tolle Musik sowie eines outstanding Gentleman.
Viele meiner Generation sind heute sehr traurig.
Mach’s gut, dear Jon!

~one of the reasons that attracted me to listen to Deep Purple was Jon Lord and his keyboard playing. without a doubt his playing and technique inspired more than just musicians, it brought something intrinsic beyond the sound and solos.
he has deposited something unique with us. the solo projects and albums had a distinctive sound, and you could sense that unmistakable feel of Jon’s sensitivity in it. thank you for the music and the tapestry of excellence.
my deepest condolences to his wife, children and loved ones. rest in peace.
rest well my friend…your impact will be felt forever….YOU ARE IMMORTAL
Deep Purpel ist für mich die größte Band, die es jemals auf unserem Clobus gegeben hat…….jetzt hat einer der größten, diesen Clobus verlassen !……………………..
RIP to the giant of the hard rock. From a Russian who was raised on your Hammond. So long Jon.
At the 1971 Sydney concert John Lord’s mixture of energy with talent and musical control made for a still memorable concert- forty years on. Garry Hil
A música perde , os fãs perdem , os fãs de PURPLE tbem , mas o carisma e o talento do mister JON , permanecem em nossa lembrança . Thank you sr . LORD , por sua música maravilhosa .
From Belo Horizonte , Brazil.
Goodbye Mr. Lord. I’m sad, You were with me in good and bad moments of my life. From my youth until now. Thank you for everything. Rest in peace, and play the Lord of Angelic organs
no puedo parar de llorar gracias maestro!!!!!
Jon is for me the greatest composer of the 20th century. I met him many times and I was very close to organize a concert with him in Leonberg / Germany at the 5th of May this year. The day before we wanted to sign the contract, we got the sad message, that Jon has cancer. The dream, to make a concert with Jon will never come true.
Jon was for me the father of Hard Rock and the heart of Deep Purple. He opened for me the classic side of music. When I was sad, his music always powered me up. Your music will always be in my deep (purple) heart.
Jon, rest in peace, all my respect to you. All the best to your family.
You`ll never walk alone
Hagen “Worldwide” Wolf
PS: Please take a seat at God’s Sky Bar and have a drink with all your friends in heaven!
Goodbye Jon,
the world lost the one and only modern Beethoven.
Germany is still on your side.
As soon as I heard THAT keyboard sound, I wanted to be a musician.
John Lord was the most brilliant humble giant of rock keyboards. All imitated, no-one emulated.
Thank you for bringing so much wonder and excitement to mine and many other lives across the world – rest in peace.
PS: He will surely be approached by Ronnie James Dio as he passes the Pearly gates, who will say he finally has the keyboardist he always wanted 🙂
Bye Jon, Rest in peace, now you will play with Dio.
Dear Sir, thank you so much for all the music and joy you brought to our lifes. A great one has gone …!!!
Rest in peace, Mr. Lord …
Michael/Germany
thank you for awesome music … rest in peace …
Земные Боги, увы, не бессмертны. Скорбь и опустошение внутри.

Je vais parler en Français, JON etait avec Blackmore ceux qui ont bercé mon adolescence et l’age adulte, merci JON pour Child in time. Je pleurs depuis hier.
J’oubliais, c’est vrai qu’il va rejoindre Dio…
Вечная Память Великому Музыканту…
Thank you for the great music!

Another sad loss RIP Jon , Thank you for all the great music ………
Lost for words, rest in peace Jon.
your music lives on.
My condolences to the families and friends of Jon Lord.Thank you for the music.
sono cresciuto con la tua musica, mille volte suonandola volevo sentirmi come te, grazie di cuore per tuttoi i sogni che ci hai lasciato.
Deep Purple were the first band I saw Live at the Apollo Glasgow
in the early seventies and I will always remember Jon incorporating
“I belong to Glasgow ” in his solo keyboard slot and the great rock music he has produced over the past decades. My condolences to his wife and daughter and to his fellow band mates . to Jon Lord
the greatest rock keyboard player .R.I.P.
oggi siamo tutti in pò più poveri
ciao jon
The passng of a great man. I was at school with Bernie Marsden who idolised him and Deep Purple hence the Whitesnake connection later. thinking of his family and friends & Bernie. Pete Holland.
Much respected Mr Lord, there are no adequate words to express the sorrow because you have passed away. Your talent, humbleness and the gift to create such a memorable hits, will last forever. Very sad ending for the greatest organ player that ever walked the Earth.
Oh la la! 😦
Bolin+Powell+Dio+Lord are waiting for a bass player. 😉
Another great musician has passed. Many times your music has lifted my spirits when things just weren’t going right and your music was one of the focal points in my life. Hardly a day has gone by since 1970 when I have not listened to your recordings. You will be truly missed. Pete
I’m a South African. We followed all the music and Purple’s developments from here. As a school boy I have no idea where I got the money for the Purple albums. Apart from the music, I recently downloaded Jon’s Honorary Doctor of Music ceremony clip from YouTube as permanent remembrance on my laptop of him. I still get goosebumps from the crowd applauding with appreciation. I have no words really except gratitude to have been exposed to his creative genius, and my own appreciation of music became so much richer. R I P Mr Lord. You will not be forgotten.
Stop that Mr Cancer!
It’s obliviously stupid!
Piss off and choose politics!
Bordel!Merde!Putain!
BYE Jon, I haven’t saw You on live concert but I listen to Your music for more than thirty years. Your Hammonds sound rests on my mind forever.
Dziękuję, że miałem szczęście spotkać Twoją muzykę na swojej drodze.
Jon Lord. Thanks to you so many wonderful moments with your music through my life. You are The Hammond Player to me. R.I.P.
HALLO, I’M FROM LUXEMBOURG. I HAVE SEE JON LORD THREE TIMES WITH DEEP PURPLE LIVE IN CONCERT, AND I HAVE SEE JON LORD AFTER HIS DEEP PURPLE CAREER ALSO THREE TIME
LIVE IN CONCERT. YOU ARE A VERY GREAT MUSICIAN, YOU ARE
A LEGEND, YOUR MUSIC WAS GREAT. BY JON LIVE IN PEACE, BUT YOUR MUSIC WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN.
J’ai beaucoup de peine. J’ai perdu un ami que je n’ai jamais connu mais qui est présent dans ma vie depuis quarante ans
I have a lot of trouble. I lost a friend I have never known but are present in my life for forty years.
Jon, thanks so much music!
Good By Jon, dieser Tag ist wirklich sehr traurig für mich, Du Deine Musik und Deep Purple begleiten mich die vielen Jahre meines Lebens, seit meiner Jugend warst Du ein Idol für mich ! Seit ich die erste Deep Purple Scheibe in der Hand hatte, war es um mich geschehen und hält seit dem an, Du warst der Urvater von Deep Purple und der legendären Hammondorgel – keiner spielte diese so grandios und filigran wie Du ! Ich danke Dir für Deine hervorragende Musik, Deine grandiosen Konzerte und das was Du uns hinterlässt.
Mein aufrichtiges Beileid auch für seine Frau und Tochter !
God bless Jon. Thank you so much Jon , for making such a huge positive impact in millions of peoples lives like myself. I will always remember how nice Jon was to me upon meeting him at a club in Connecticut during The House of Blue Light tour. He was genuinely a good guy as well as a master musician. You will be so missed. R.I.P my friend
Jon, rest in peace! I allways loved your music and also to play your songs on stage. I will remember you for all my life!
I`ve never been a rich woman – I`m a teacher in Russia with keyboarder`s ambitions… Jon always held me hoping and gave lots of filings supported me , he could listen and he played the Best of many others . I`m happy i`ve lived at the same century with Lord-the-Man . Such the Loss
you always are with us
Jon, you were the best. Today I listened to Highway Star which to me contains your best solo. I’m really a guitar guy, but listening to you turned me onto keyboards too. R.I.P.
Jon, mon cher Jon,
Que le tout puissant te donne un clavier et le paradis ne sera que plus gai.
Ta musique et ta présence scénique me manqueront à jamais.
Quand je monterai te rejoindre, fais-moi signe, on sifflotera un petit air de Deep Purple, je te vénère et te pleure.
Merci et fais les rêver la haut, !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Le monde des artistes a perdu une légende… Good bless you my friend. ER
Jon,
Will be sorely missed by all true music fans. My condolenses to his family. I was lucky to see his last performance last year at the Sunflower gig @ RAH. A wonderful evening, his warmth, wit and banter with the audiance as well as his duet with Rick will always remain with me. “DP in Rock” remains the best album ever.
Jon Lord
Thank you for all the divine moments you gave to our lives with your music. I wouldn’t be the same person as I am without that experience. R.I.P.
I will never forget the first time I heard Lazy from Made in Japan, from that moment on I was hooked. Ihad the good grace to meet you once when you was in Whitesnake many years ago and you couldnt have been more charming: Today I am sad:
Gone but not forgotten
God Bless you Jon,
Rest in Peace.
David London England
Deep Purple is the most important band in the rock history and John Lord was one of the most influential keyboardists of all time. His perfomance in Perfect Strangeris was outstanding. Also in Burn the best Purple’s song. He is not with us but left us an immortal musical heritage
Danke für alles was Du uns mit Deiner Musik gegeben hast.
Du warst grandios. Deine Musik mit Deep Purple live erlebt zu
haben war musikalisch mit das Beste was ich erleben durfte.

I was born in 1965. I heard the music of deep purple since mid 1970. your music was a part my youth. You have gone far too soon from us. I still enjoy the music and I’m so glad I have seen you twice with Deep Purple in a concert in Germany. My sincere condolences to your family. R.I.P. Jon.
