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 a radio edit of “All Because of You.”
"Paris Moon" was nominated to the New Age Reporter Lifestyle Music Award in three categories: Best Vocal Album, Best Album and Best Celtic Album.[1]
