Sure, she never got to play twenty minute classical music solos at mach-speed (Keith Emerson) or got to wear a super groovy cape (Rick Wakeman) or make her keyboard sound like love mad muskrats (Daryl Dragon) but she had chops. Check out her harpsichord break on "I think I Love You". Do you need more evidence than that?

Unfortunatley, Lori was over-shadowed by her ego-maniacal brother, Keith, and her overbearing Mother. After the Partridge's broke up, I thought she might join King Crimson or start her own prog-rock band (The Lori Partridge Experience, perhaps) but, alas, it was not to be.
Instead she joined a law firm in L.A and her hair turned yellow. A sad ending to a once promising career.
