Description : This is a very little and very humble homage to Jon Lord, the King of Deep Purple, the man who put a symphonic flavour inside Hard Rock.

So long, Jon, keep on rocking wherever you are now!

Radio quality and rockin'! Cool track. :)

wow when I saw Jon Lord I had to stop, Machine Head was one of my favorite lp's back in those days. It sounds just like his set up, what are you using for this? I would think those were long gone.

Thank you, foxdfive, for listening and for your kind comment!

The Hammond sound of this track has been mainly created with a couple of plugins: Cakewalk Sound Center and Organized Trio.

I'm happy that you liked it!

Hi Stefano,
Wonderful track! Love the organ, very well played and "Lordesque" (even if the passage around 1:24 reminds me a lot of Mr. Tony Banks preparing his supper)
The double-bass drums are powerful and solid.
Decisamente niente male!
Grazie!
Domenico

PS: I have to agree with R01D, you have some clipping here and there, but the song is really enjoyable.

Ciao Domenico, mi prendo la libertà di risponderti almeno un pezzo in italiano perchè ... è molto meno faticoso...

Effettivamente, ho inserito una citazione di un passaggio da Supper's Ready, mi sembrava ci stesse bene...bravo per averlo scoperto...10 e lode!

Thank you for listening and for your kind comment!

Ahh that first note, my heart just skipped a beat. I love DP and Rainbow. I love how John Lord left his Hammond for his replacement in retirement Don Airey. RIP John, good work this song is awesome

Thank you, my friend...I'm glad you liked it!

Well, the Hammond sound is one of the most difficult instruments to render digitally because it has that ... very analogic peculiarity!

So this is only a "synthetic" view of the original monster!

Thanks again for listening and for your kind words!

I really like the arrangement and composition, but the mix needs some work. It sounds like a lot of tracks are peaking individually, try turning all of them down and it will add a lot of dynamic range to your track.
Don't be afraid to make a quiet track, its a lot easier for me to turn up my speakers than it is for you to spend time making the song as loud as possible and still sound great ;)

Nice song!

I`ve loved that B3 sound since I first heard Booker T...Wish NI still made their B4 vsti (I have an old version that runs (partially) on my 64 bit system)...Great playing Stefano and you really nailed the vibe....much enjoyed....Ed
