An absolute master of his craft, and made Deep Purple unique. I'm very sad this evening.

Oh man, he may be my all time favorite keys player... Very sad...

Damn RIP.

 

[Piero the Guitarero]

damn it, what a great player.

The "Made in Japan" album had a huge influence on me...

 

[spirit7]

"Slide it In", "Machine Head", "Perfect Strangers", "In Rock", "Made in Japan"...the guy was on countless amazing records.

I met him a couple of times and he was a complete gent, in addition to a monster player.
