September 1975

Jon Lord  

People involved

Paul Karass (bss); Jon Lord (kbr); Mark Nauseef (prc); Andy Sommers (gtr); Pete York (drm); and the Philharmonia Hungarica conducted by Eberhard Schoener.

A superb rock/classics-fusion by the Lord himself. From the sleeve notes: "The theme behind the music ... is that of a baroque dance suite. A form of music which was brought to its highest level by Bach." The Bouree pops up now and then whenever Lord does his solo appearances.
