“Jon Lord’s Windows” to be re-released on April 28, 2017
earMusic/Edel will continue the series of Jon Lord reissues with the release of “Windows” on April 28, 2017.
The reissue was remastered by Rob Cass at Abbey Road Studios, using the original stereo tracks and will be released as a Digipak featuring a new artwork. A reissue of “Sarabande” will follow later this year.
As with “Gemini Suite” my feelings about the reissues are double minded.
I’m happy that it is reissued and reamstered. And I hope it’s soundwise better than my old “Line-releases”.
But why the created new artwork. It’s senseless. The old artwork is part of the history of the albums.

One more reissue without any great interest ! If only the DVD of the show has been included… !

March 18th, 2017 at 12:15Lord squint? Come on. Another poor release. Same thing with the latest Gemini Suite release. Nothing new, nothing better. No sound upgrade, nothing new on the booklet too.
March 18th, 2017 at 14:02Why don’t they include the TV footage of the concert that surfaced some years ago?…That would really generate extra interest!??? That footage is awesome! 🙁
March 19th, 2017 at 03:39You’re totally right Karl-Heinz, poor lazy/easy reissue…. TV stuffs were – of course – bonus that had to be included !
