A little story. The year was 2022, I was walking through the streets of the old village of Paranapiacaba, in the city of Santo André, in São Paulo - Brazil, when I heard music coming from a group of young people, sitting on the street near the wreckage of abandoned trains. Something I had never heard before, however, was all too familiar and swept me from head to toe. Magic, coincidence or destiny? This village is nestled in the Serra do Mar mountains, within the Atlantic Forest, and was build by the English people, when they came to build a railway here in 1850. It's a place full of stories and legends, which for a long time has held the festival of Witches and Wizards. For an entire week, the mystics gang from various parts invade the village, drinking, dancing, singing and doing their rituals, almost always covered in fog. It’s looks like a typically old English village, wooden houses with bathroom in the backyard, even a little Big Ben replication in the middle of the station. A beautiful place, built with materials from England, although nowadays, it has been quite Brazilianized, but still possesses the charm of foreign lands. In my younger days, I vaguely knew about the Deep Purple band, but I didn’t know the names, and so when I realized that Ritchie was part of that band, I even got scared. What a chance! The Rebirth of a Renaissance man, I particularly prefer this sound. Well, that’s how I discovered Blackmore’s Night sound and I loved, especially the first three albums (really incredible) since then, almost when a listen to them, they're in sequence (on rainy afternoons, with a wine by the fireplace, listening to Blackmore’s Night, sound so good. In some songs Candice´s voice is so stunnig, seens like an angel). The song I heard that day was Under a Violet Moon. I think you guys are amazing, and thanks for the music.

I'm not married. I hope one day I will marry and take the hands of the love of my life and bring her to Balckmoore's night's concerts. Living in a time when such a band exists is such a marvel. Thank you for your great music, Candice and Ritchie 💙.

I was at Blackmore's Night concert in Helsinki, Kulttuuritalo in 2002 and 2004. At the end of the 2002 gig I got to shake your hand Candice and thank you for a great concert😊

This music reminds me of Mike Oldfield and Maggie Reilly doing Moonlight Shadow. Candices voice has become stronger since Shadow Of The Moon, and her lyrics are superb. The best songwriter Ritchie has worked with since the late Ronnie James Dio.
