According to late DEEP PURPLE keyboard legend JON LORD's website, When Rock Meets Classics is a highly recommended 48-minute radio retrospective in Jon’s memory.
Opening with a snippet of the piano version of 'Child In Time', the comprehensive yet succinct overview of Jon’s career features all-new interviews with a list of important players in Jon’s musical life – including an interview with himself conducted in 2010 – and is peppered with appropriate and inspired soundbites of Jon’s music.
The broadcast also features illustrious interviews with Ian Paice, Paul Mann, Roger Glover, Rick Wakeman, Glenn Hughes and more.
First aired in July 2012, the piece is hosted by Eli Lapid of The Voice of Israel who has made it available exclusively for JonLord.org below:
