Blackmore’s Night were founded in 1997 by legendary guitarist Ritchie Blackmore and award-winning lyricist and vocalist Candice Night to stage their mutual love for traditional Medieval and Folk-Rock music. The band’s debut album “Shadow Of The Moon” (1997) was not only Blackmore’s deliberately radical cut from his previous life as a celebrated rockstar in the bands Deep Purple and Rainbow, but at the same time ground-breaking and symptomatic of his artistic ideals: mainly acoustic instrumental music, influenced by the songs of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, but in its timelessness fits perfectly into the modern times. The 25th Anniversary Edition of “Shadow Of The Moon” features a fully remixed version of the original album with a completely refreshed artwork. Also included are two previously unreleased acoustic songs: “Spirit Of The Sea” and “Shadow Of The Moon”, both recorded in an intimate home session by Candice and Ritchie. All physical first print editions will also carry an exclusive “Shadow Of The Moon” documentary on DVD as bonus.
