Blackmore's Night, Great Group

I was looking through the Request lines and I could not find any Blackmore's Night. This is a great group and I love their music. the Group is made up of Richy Blackmore from the 80's rock band Rainbow and Candece Night, Richy's Love, They are a ren fair group that has exploded and I would love to hear some of their music plaied here

I tend to like them too. Blackmore's Night is not what I would consider destinctly Celtic, but I do agree that at least some if not most of their music would fit. After I discovered their music, I sent an E-mail to their offices talking about getting their music played on here but I never heard back from them.

Hi Golden_Griffin. I must say I am another fan of theirs. I am surprised they are not played on Highlander Radio. May be we can cross our fingers and toes and wish SOON!!! Aaediwen thats a wonderful idea...

I am kind of excited. I heard back from Blackmores Night and they are considering putting some of their songs on Highlander Radio as soon as their tours over. So I am really hoping in the next year we can be hearing them here on Highlander Radio.

That is Great Riney Thank you so much for checking into that. it would be awsome.

Your welcome Golden_Griffin. It's my pleasure. They are suppose to let us know in May after their tour. So it's coming soon. I really think this band is just fabulous. I can't get enough of their sound and visuals. So lets all keep our fingers crossed...

I agree with Rindy. This group is fabulous. I typed their name in on Pandora and listened to their music and loved it.

1. it's Ritchie
2. How can you not mention Deep Purple??
3. Ritchie formed Rainbow in the 70's


Do a search here, this topic/group has come up before here and has been discussed at length.
Both Ritchie and Dio described Rainbow as "Medieval Rock" in various interviews, BTW. If you check into some of the older stuff there are some real gems along those lines.

Having some of their music played on Highlander Radio would be great! I've been a fan of Blackmore's Night for several years now, and am an active member of the Dutch fanclub and the Dutch Streetteam. I'll go drop a link here on the dutch fanclub forum - I know some of them are, like myself, into celtic music

The new CD "Secret Voyage" USA/Canada release: August 19 2008 at all music outlets and presale in July 15th at Amazon.com which does have sound samples
The new music video soon to be released-"Locked Within The Crystal Ball"

We've received contact directly from Blackmore's Night and their latest CD "Secret Voyage."

An excellent album, group and music!! 5 Stars all around from Celtic Radio!

Pre-ordered ( $13.90) Secret Voyage about a month ago and it showed up today. Richie and Candace have put together some terrific material. A little more rock then previous recordings but Candace's presentation holds true her renaissance background.

How can you go wrong, when you have a song like God Save The Keg, that features a full cathedral organ. Long live Ritchie's sense of humor.

This is a fun and very well recorded cd. I would suggest if you are a Ritchie Blackmore fan, this is a must have.

Nothing really new for him, go back to early Deep Purple ('68-'70 or so) as well as the first two Rainbow releases and there's plenty of songs featuring organs there. 'Gates of Babylon' comes to mind from Rainbow, with a 90-second organ intro.

I am really enjoying this band here on Celtic Radio and the video section. Like subhuman said can't go wrong with Ritchie Blackmore. I can here some riffs in there that are like the old Deep Purple. Love it! Candice is as beautiful as her voice! I hope they come out with another cd soon.
