I saw Deep Purple in Birmingham in November this year and stayed around afterwards and saw don and roger glover. Don is one of the nicest people ever! Your well lucky to be related to him.

what's most impressive isn't the fact he can play the acutal songs but change from a song to a totally different song to song without hesitation and make it so naturally!

now that was awesome

I'm a lifetime fan of Rick Wakeman (over 40 years) now I'm a Fan of Don Airey as well. Fantastic playing. Ken from Scotland

airey was the best "padawan" of Lord

I saw Don at the Concert in Zurich this year. He`s really a worthy successor for John.

Great solo!

ohh my god...I've seen them yesterday in ravensburg (germany) and he also played this solo and it was unbelivebel....want to see them again soon^^ it was the damn best concert in my life....

Don Airey is a legend !!! Metaaaaaal !!!!

Когда Дон Эйри играл это соло, он был вдохновлён фильмами Идущий в огне и Звёздные войны

Hes getting old, but hes still absolutely fantastic.

As I told him, only him could replace Jon Lord. he rocks, and he's a funny guy!

yes.. Don is doin' it great..

airey wrote and performed the keyboard intro to Mr Crowley originally!

0:25 - 0:30 -> Mr. Crowley (Ozzy Osbourne) 2:37 -> Rondo Alla Turca (Mozart) Amazing solo...

Awesome keyboard player. Love the belly at 1:25+

amazing

OMG! Don is a fking genius!

Sim concordo com Mattmudorock ele é maravilhoso e um dos meus tecladistas favoritos,porque eu aprendo teclado há quase 8 anos e desde de que o ví pela primeira vez fiquei encantado com sua qualidade músical e com sua habilidade e seu talento nos teclados.Por isso ele é uma influência para mim no momento de praticar meu teclado e o Deep purple não podia ter feito melhor escolha para substituir Lord nos teclados da banda pois Don é incrível e ocupou com lovor a vaga que era de Jon Lord.

yeah he WAS.. but now is Don.. and that's that and everybody is happy

This was fucking great!!!

So cool!!

@rockingrugger it doesn t just remind you of, it IS and is supposed to be the begining of mr. crowley

fuck that was awesome. all due respect to guitarists, looking at this guy keyboardists deserve hell lot of love in rock.

He is amazing :)

seen these last night

mi idolo

I just saw them last night, they didn't play child in time....! But Airey's solo was awesome!

@mazanylisak01 yeah, i realised that later. don airey did write the keyboards for that song in fact.

è il mio idolo

wow

@rodrigozamo Well then, I'm glad I could help you out. Good Luck with everything mate.

beginning reminds me of mr. crowley..

wwaaahoooooooooooooooooooooooO!!!!! :DDDDD

ofcourse

DEGNO SOSTITUTO DI JION LORD. GAVOLOSO COME JION HIEAAA

He cut that boogie short....the rock audience LOVES that stuff......should have made it last much longer

@rodrigozamo I'm a little curiopus as to what kind of synthesizer you are playing. Are you playing a complicated synth with alot of waveforms? If that is so, I can recomend some other synthezisers that only contain the classic waveforms (wave, sine, square anmd triangle). The Microkorg, and microkorg XL and the Roland GAIA are two of the newest. You can also check out the Nord Lead, and the Moog Little Phatty (mind you that the Moog is only monophonic, which means you can't play chords).

yes is the intro of mr crowley

Si Senior!

that's right.. i like Lord to.. But Airey is my favorite that's all

Such a really great keyboardist, but Deep Purple's man is Jon Lord and I'm not saying this only because he's my favourite keyboard player...

anyone know the name of the rag time song that starts just before rondo all turca at 2:17?

@AgurkTomatGulerod Var det ikke i 2009 de var her sidst?

JON LORD DA BEST!

Mr. Crowley?? o_O

thumbs up if it totaly just blows away mr. crowly...

@rodrigozamo Saw, sqaure and triangle

@AgurkTomatGulerod Hehe.. Han er mega cool .. Især til de nyere effekter og sådan.. Jon var mega fed til at spille på et Hammond

@titusttiti: dont forget gillan

mr crowley opening?

the only reason i know who this great keyboard player is is from randy rhoads with ozzy back in 1980-1982 and hes wonderful playing crowley at the beginning

総に本当である。ドンAirey は世界次善の策キーボードプレーヤーである(ジョンの主の後で) 。しかし単独これは大きい! xD me encantaria saber lo que dice xD

its mr crowley in the beginning

'Many of the Mark 3 songs are good, but not all of them...' : I agree with you, but you can tell it about MK II songs.

rofl, i love when he starts doing shit like Mr Crowley :D

rick wakemanesque.

@AgurkTomatGulerod Jeg var inde den 28. juli 2008 i KB Hallen!!! FEEEEEDT :D JEg var 2 meter fra Ian Gillan :D

John Lord are the best now..................

For those that critizase Don, you should close your mouths and just listen, there's no need to post stupid things, you probably can't play triangle.

os gaucho tudo bêudo hehe...é isso aí

yeah man its mr crowley............

Looks like Michael Palin

@AgurkTomatGulerod Ahh det kunne jeg godt.. Jon Lord er lidt voldsommere, hvis du forstår :P Men det er mega seje begge to!!

Yes. Deep Purple without Lord (and Blackmore) can't be Deep Purple. DP is Blackmore/Lord/Paice.

im wiright right :D

2:36 ?

OMG;Wow; Such an amazing solo; May even be better than Keith Emerson :)

Ozzy Osbourne - Mr. Crowley. intro.

i know..i was just sayin crowley

And lots of people adfirm that Rudess is the best! They don't hear this!

..al diavolo Giovanni Allevi! .. Giovanni Allevi go to hell!!!

Why can't people learn to clap their hands on offbeat!?!??!?!?!?! DRives me nuts!

he has only imitate Jon Lords 1993 NEC Solo. He can't replace John. He is very good player, but he don't belong to Deep Purple.

just a guy showing off some practice, no real constance or unity. he could use his hands for more noble purposes, as he usually does. piru-gluglu total!!!

Ozzy Osbourne at the start :L

i guess with that pompous stuff he does there...he tries to draw off the attention from what lord did... airey is great. no doubt...but what misses is his performance is the heart. it's all about showing technique. that's what airey does...

I prefer Coverdale

sorry...but Lord did 10 times better solos back in the day only with his hammond. he's in a totally different league.

you don't even know how to write his name

its terrible

yeah man its mr crowley............
