Paris Moon is a long-form concert DVD/CD
shot released by the band
Blackmore's
Night in 2007.
This release celebrates the band's 10 year
anniversary with a concert in the legendary Paris Olympia
in 2006.
The band runs through a number of cover songs, including
Jethro Tull’s “Rainbow Blues,”
Joan Baez’ “Diamonds and Rust,”
Joan Osborne’s “Saint Teresa,” and a couple
songs from Ritchie's previous bands,
Deep
Purple's, “Soldier of Fortune" and
Rainbow's Ariel (though this song was actually
written by Candice and Ritchie).
Also included is a photo gallery with photos from the show, set to
“Streets of London,” sung by Night in
French.
Included with the DVD is a CD containing nine tracks from the
concert, as well as a studio version of “The Village Lanterne” and
