Legendary Deep Purple co-founder Jon Lord is unfortunately battling cancer. A message on his official site says the following:
“I would like all my friends, followers, fans and fellow travelers to know that I am fighting cancer and will therefore be taking a break from performing while getting the treatment and cure.
I shall of course be continuing to write music – in my world it just has to be part of the therapy – and I fully expect to be back in good shape next year.
God bless and see you soon
Jon”
Get well soon, Jon! I’m not religious, spiritual or superstitious so I don’t know what else to say, but on behalf of everyone at DoM, have a speedy recovery.
