Late DEEP PURPLE keyboard legend JON LORD's Rock Meets Classic was recorded in June 1974 in Munich. Windows, which was recorded in Munich June 1974, is a live album by Jon Lord and the German conductor and composer Eberhard Schoener.



Ray Fenwick, Tony Ashton, David Coverdale, Glenn Hughes and Lord himself perform as soloists along with the Munich Chamber Opera Orchestra conducted by Schoener. The album was originally released on LP by Purple Records (distributed by EMI) in late 1974.

The master tapes of the film recording have recently been discovered and plans are being made to release the show some time later in 2013. This is terrific news for all Jon Lord fans.

This piece is a small snippet from the rehearsals late May 1974.
