[edit] Image

Forgot to add reason to edit. The current image has a source now. firenexx 02:34, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Injury

Garr, some *person* removed the phrase "due to injury" without checking first. [[1]] if you're interested... But don't do that again. firenexx 20:56, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Recent additions

Lengthy additions have recently been made to the article that push WP:CITE, WP:NPOV and WP:NOR off to one side and result in a very unencyclopedic article. Some cleanup is nessessary. 156.34.213.113 22:50, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

I'll say. That his surname is "Lord" should not be taken too literally! And nobody cares how he is compared with Emerson and Wakeman. Geez. Wasted Time R 02:15, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

Is this the "unresolved dispute"? For sure it's a bit sycophantic, but I've seen a lot worse. It definitely needs tightening up though. There is far too much history of other people interrupting the narrative flow. If I want to read the history of Deep Purple or Art Wood, I'll follow the links! Mind you, I do think it's valid to compare Lord with Wakeman and Emerson, keeping WP:NPOV. They do provide context for his career. Patrick Neylan 22:10, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Jon Lord

I've revised the whole Jon Lord entry, based on album sleeve notes from his solo and Deep Purple recordings and updated by cross-referencing to key sources and new sites, all of which are added to links. I will add sources and validation when I next revisit this topic. The essentials are all correct. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ovaismnaqvi (talk • contribs) 01:16, 4 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] C3 or B3?

I had always heard that Jon Lord's primary organ was a Hammond B3, but this article consistently refers to a C3. In fact, I'd heard he bought his 1970's B3 from Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac. In any case, I think the C3 vs. B3 needs confirmation. Howenstein115 18:37, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
