the Harrogate Centre on the UK 2002 tour. |

programmes for

."Just
a quick thought. The photo of Jon Lord and Steve Cole is in
fact the last photo of Jon while a member of DP. After the photo
was taken, Jon said goodbye to the band on their bus, got into
a taxi and drove away from DP." Michael Richards |
