JON LORD announces cancer diagnosis

JON LORD, the godfather of rock keyboardists, has published the following message on his website today: 

"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"
