Re: Can't take the concerto seriously...
John, it's worth getting the DVD, even if you have a recording of the 69 Concerto already, just for your hero's (Jon Lord's) commentary track

Re: Can't take the concerto seriously...
The best piece on the concerto is when blackers pulls of one of his wonderfull solo's and keeps on going. Jon Lord later stated that RB only had a couple of bars for this particular solo but he didn't stop. At that point you see Lord thinking:'what the f**k is blackers doing?!" And of course Malcolm Arnold - who wasn't aware of RB reputation- stood on his pedestool, looking at RB, with a horrified face and I guess his thoughts at that time were something like:'Oh my goodness, this young man is going to destroy the whole piece!!' LOL!
