| Ritchie Blackmore and Candice Night decided | | | | |
| to please their devoted fans and put together | | | | 01. Once In A Million Years (Previously |
| their favorite love songs on one CD titled | | | | Unreleased) |
| Beyond The Sunset. So now, when a couple | | | | |
| gets married they have them all on one CD to | | | | 02. Be Mine Tonight |
| play for that very special occasion. Well, | | | | |
| that serves one purpose, but if you are | | | | 03. Wish You Were Here |
| already married its still a nice collection | | | | |
| of songs to have. | | | | 04. Waiting Just For You |
| | | | |
| With the addition of a DVD with five tracks | | | | 05. Durch Den Wald Zum Bach Haus |
| and another Christmas CD with three tracks, | | | | |
| this is quite a package. I never had the | | | | 06. Ghost Of A Rose (New Previously |
| pleasure of watching the band perform onstage | | | | Unreleased Version) |
| and after taking the CD in with much | | | | |
| enjoyment, it was a pleasure to watch Ritchie | | | | 07. Spirit Of The Sea |
| and the beautiful Candice prance around on | | | | |
| the stage to bring their renaissance | | | | 08. I Still Remember |
| merriment to the masses. | | | | |
| | | | 09. Castles And Dreams |
| If you are a fan this is a must purchase, | | | | |
| even if you already have all the other songs | | | | 10. Beyond The Sunset |
| spread amongst the studio albums, the DVD and | | | | |
| bonus Christmas CD is worth the price. | | | | 11. Again Someday |
| | | | |
| I often wondered if their live performances | | | | 12. Diamonds And Rust |
| were as visually stunning as they sounded, | | | | |
| well now I know, I have the proof in my hand, | | | | 13. Now And Then |
| they are. Nothing spectacular is going on | | | | |
| with their presentation. There are no lasers | | | | 14. All Because Of You |
| or explosions, of course the atmosphere their | | | | |
| music creates does not need any of that shock | | | | Disc: 2-DVD |
| and wow element to make their presentation | | | | |
| more attractive and exciting. Just the | | | | 1. Written In The Stars |
| presence of guitar maestro Blackmore and the | | | | |
| alluring Night make it a treat to watch. Of | | | | 2. Morning Star |
| course, the backdrop is a castle and they are | | | | |
| all dressed in period clothing. I understand | | | | 3. Play Minstrel Play |
| that many of their fans will show up dressed | | | | |
| the same way at concerts. It sounds like a | | | | 4. Minstrel Hall |
| lot of fun. For Ritchie, this is very | | | | |
| different from his days with Rainbow and Deep | | | | 5. Under A Violet Moon Bonus Disc: |
| Purple. I think he has finally found true | | | | |
| love with his music and in his personal life | | | | Christmas Songs |
| with Candice. The couple has been together | | | | |
| for several years now. | | | | 1. Christmas Eve |
