Blackmore's Night - Celebrating 25 years of magic by Ritchie Blackmore and Candice Night

With the release of the 25th anniversary edition of SHADOW OF THE MOON in March 2023, we take a look here at some beautiful vision of BLACKMORE'S NIGHT in Paris for the PARIS MOON live concert performance, also featuring interviews with Candice Night & Ritchie Blackmore as they discuss the genesis of the band.

I still admire Ritchie's courage to follow his passion instead on monetizing only on the gone Hard Rock days. He is a true artist.

[@craigphillips6308]

It surprises me how many Deep Purple and Rainbow fans do not know about Ritchie's incredible work with Blackmore's Night.

[@johntrgovich4717]

Yea it's like the put blinders and e😢ar plugs in and refused to try to listen to his other marvelous creation

[@michelleg953]

I didn't know about this until 2015...but I am a big fan of all Ritchie's music

[@homegrownson]

You two are Amazing together

[@rward393]

I don’t care what you call the music , I love it

[@richardwarfordjr.5622]

Richie Blackmore is great his strings set the mood

[@shilowaters6082]

Ritchie Blackmore kicks ass soo much with a guitar. Absolutely has made my crappy life better throughout the years

[@gaelbgalbar9307]

Yep, I'm guitarist and Ritchie is such an influence! Whenever I play metal or hard, I think 'bout him, Tony Iommi n Jimmy Page, Hendrix too, the hard rock pioneers with their strong music personalities n differences.

[@timothyrice1621]

It's nice to see Ritchie happy.

[@vyacheslavshakirov3808]

Your music is beautiful, I always listen to you with pleasure!

[@slimhanson5792]

SHADOW OF THE MOON was a brilliant piece of work. Up there with the best of Rainbow.

[@boataxe4605]

By far the longest time Ritchie has stayed with a band!

[@rowenamckee1433]

Your music has brought so much joy to my life, as well as my daughter's. Your harmonies and interplay with the various instruments is balanced and beautiful. The lyrics are meaning. Thank you so much! ❤

[@guitarnickbluealgroovyrus]

Really good!😎💙

[@user-wr3qi6wb5g]

Гений гитары!!!

[@Digibeatle09]

Ritchie (together with Candice) began a journey 25 years ago - a journey that involved Ritchie setting out in a new musical direction - can't say I've been able to follow that particular journey (I hark back to the glory days of Deep Purple and Rainbow) - however, I wish him and Candice all the best on this special anniversary - there appears to be a great number of people who enjoy the music of Blackmore's Night.

[@vyacheslavshakirov3808]

Благодарю Вас! За Прекрасное Исполнение! Доброго Здравия Вашей Семье - Ричи и Кенди!!!

БЛЭКМОР ЧУДО ГЕНИЙ ВО ВРЕМЕМЕНИ ОБАЖАЮ

[@MyLifEcademy-sr4hy]

Ritchie has always been an inspiration...and I never got into this because I figured he'd just "Blackmorize" it like Rainbow. Twenty-five years later...maybe I will give it a deeper listen.

[@adamoskrajinovic4528]

...Candice&Ritchie...☯️🌌

[@annrose5499]

Juntos perfectos

[@7-_Kh]

Если наш мир не исчезнет, то этого Музыканта будут помнить очень долго. Не сегодня и не завтра, но в будущем его музыка получит истинное признание.

[@VektorLomonosov]

;) like! (#1;)

[@marslennon1]

❤🧡💛💙💜🤎🤍🖤

[@wesburrough]

What kind of acoustic does he have around the 7:33 mark?

[@bryanstevens7409]

Blackmorization!

[@rubenbarahona]

5:32 The thumb is from Alien

[@SwisstedChef2018]

She seems very Hippy to me. But he loves her and she loves him and at the end, that is all that counts.

[@weterstranstwii1277]

оккк

[@unciclistacontraelsistema8620]

Ritchie could keep making LPs and touring with Rainbow, right until 2000, he was in excellent health and condition...but women have too much power...
I must say I don't like anything of BN music, but Candice's voice is really smooth, deep and such nice...

[@markbirchette8740]

Agreed about the snobbery in music Ritchie. Can you actually be that narcissistic that you don't know you're seen and known as one biggest snobs ever in music? You're brilliant but a total snob. It shouldn't be there by your own words on this film. I still love the music you have made in all it's incarnations.

[@The-Punnkk]

awful

[@eduardoalmeida61]

Ritchie Blackmangina!

[@sn00pgreen]

lol

[@2007Tarkus]

It's a windy day Candice's hair is flowing with the wind but strangely Ritchie's hair does not move ? and it's a force 10 gale

[@sinclairwhitbourne2090]

Yes, let's focus on the really important parts of the music.

[@dnx112]

25 years of misery. Long live Ronnie James Dio.
