JON LORD - Windows JON LORD

LP - Limited Edition Orange Crush Vinyl

WINDOWS is a live album by JON LORD and the German conductor and composer Eberhard Schoener . It was recorded at a concert in Munich in 1974, and the music is a mix between progressive rock and orchestral late romantic/modernist styles. It features musicians from the rock world such as David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes. Dark Horse Records is celebrating the 50th anniversary of Windows with a limited color vinyl pressing.

“Continuo on B-A-C-H” is a loose attempt to build on the unfinished triple fugue that closed Johann Sebastian Bach’s “Art of the Fugue. ” The second side of the LP is a three-part composition called “Window. ” Ray Fenwick (The Spencer Davis Group, Ian Gillan Band); Tony Ashton (The Remo Four , Family); David Coverdale (Whitesnake, Deep Purple); Glenn Hughes (Deep Purple, Black Sabbath); and Lord himself perform as soloists along with the Munich Chamber Opera Orchestra conducted by Eberhard Schoener.
