Beautiful, Haunting, Lush.......2006-03-11

Thank you Blackmore Night for your Romantic Collection - BEYOND THE SUNSET. I purchased this CD to set the mood for Valentine's Day. I have pleasantly found this CD to be one of my newly favorite musical selection for quiet times spent at home. I'm looking foward to exploring more of the music of Blackmore Night. Thanks.

Awesome!.......2005-12-11

I knew of Ritchie Blackmore when he was in Deep Purple and Rainbow, but this side of him is unbelievably awesome. He formed a band with his girlfriend, Candice Night. I would call it Classical and Celtic flavored music. Candice has a beautiful voice, and Ritchie plays classical guitar with flawless picking that complements her voice.

This c.d. is all about romance, but not the gushy, typical romance. Most of the songs on here are about missing the one you love. The singing is really good, but the music is also interesting with intricate guitar work from Mr. Blackmore.

It is the perfect music for me to write my books to. I especially love "Ghost of a Rose." This song has an ethereal melody, and words about longing and separation that have inspired a short story inside of me. If you like Loreena McKennitt, Enya or Celtic music, you might like this.

Amazing! Music doesn't get any better than this..........2005-10-13

Different, certainly, but never better. I have been a fan of Blackmore for a long time. His work with Rainbow and Deep Purple has inspired countless other musicians. That being said, I was not prepared at all for Blackmore's Night. I happened across Blackmore's Night cds at a local store but for a year or so I never bought one. What a mistake.

Finally I decided to check one out. I chose "Beyond The Sunset" and I dare say that it is the best purchase I have made at any time in my life. The music is hauntingly beautiful. Once hearing it you will never forget it..and it will leave you wanting to hear more.

Hitting the Mother Lode on First Try!.......2005-09-30

Can you imagine going gold digging for the first time? You would not expect to hit the mother of all gold mines on your first dig. Well that's what I believe I found when I experienced my first listen to this album. (I call it an Album because CD seems to be a cheap description of this masterpiece). Let me explain. I have been a Beatles fan since the 60's, and then I became a hard rock fan in the early 70's when I heard Deep Purple. I have been stuck on these types of music for years. Then about one year ago, I purchased this CD, only because of being a Ritchie Blackmore fan. I did know that I was not going to hear Deep Purple music and I thought that, "I'll probably have to listen to this several times to let it grow on me". I was wrong. The first song, (Once in a Million Years) was interesting, but when I heard (Still Remember You and Ghost of a Rose), I was hooked. I've never been down this road before musically, it was different, but it was good. Then I watched the DVD that came with the album, I was mesmerized. Candice Night is a lovely person and her voice can relax and sooth your mind. (I can't disagree with most descriptions that she is an angel). The backup singers are lovely as well. Upon watching the DVD, I also noticed an atmosphere of brotherhood and good spirits that flows throughout the audience. You can tell that there are no fights going to break out in this crowd.

I've been lucky in my life. I was not around when Chuck Berry invented rock and roll, nor was I around when Elvis started up, but I was around when The Beatles recreated music (several times), when Deep Purple created hard rock (Don't call it Metal), and now I get to hear this wonderful mixture of Renaissance oriented blend of everything. Like I said in the title above, I hit gold on my first time out to listening to something totally different than I was used to hearing.

In closing, if you would have liked to watch Picasso paint a masterpiece, then the only thing that I can think of that might be relatively close, is to watch Blackmore play the guitar.

Beyond description..........2005-09-25

This album is simply beyond description. I had never really heard much of Black More's Night (BMN) before, but I have to tell you, this has become an instant favourite in my CD collection. This is a TWO disc set (I don't know why but I didn't get the Christmas songs other people were mentioning in their reviews, although in the info of the page it doesn't say that it comes, BUU), of recopilation of BMN best songs produced till the date of this release. One is a CD with 14 songs and the other one is a DVD (which I think by itself is worth the purchase, a little short but great nonetheless),with 5 songs of a concert that was played in a great location (I'm not telling you since I'd ruin it for you).

I think that Candice Night's voice is one of the best I've heard in my entire life, some people compare her to an angel, but I think an angel isn't a match for her voice (and she is REALLY pretty too...).

Ritchie Blackmore really knows how to play a guitar well, I was quite impressed with most of the solos the songs have, they're quite good.

Overall, this CD should not miss in your collection, since it's perfect and you're getting a lot for what you're paying for.
