"Shadow Of The Moon" was released in 1998.

3. What heavenly body is mentioned in the names of both of Blackmore's Night's first two albums?

From Quiz Blackmore's Night

Answer: Moon

Their first two albums are "Shadow of the Moon" and "Under a Violet Moon". Both albums also contain a title track as their first song. "Under a Violet Moon" is a particularly lively song with a chorus that starts "Raise your hats and your glasses too."

4. Which ballet do Blackmore's Night borrow a tune from in one of their songs?

From Quiz Blackmore's Night "Shadow of the Moon"

Answer: "Swan Lake"

The chorus and introduction to "Writing on the Wall" come from that bit everyone remembers from "Swan Lake"- and if that didn't give it away, then "Like a swan that was lost on sea...." !

5. Which Joan Baez song was on the Blackmore's Night album "Ghost of a Rose"?

From Quiz Blackmore's Night

Answer: Diamonds and Rust

"Diamonds and Rust" is a highlight on "Ghost of a Rose". On "Diamonds and Rust", Candice's voice sounds remarkably similar to Joan Baez's on the original, so much so that when it comes on Pandora, I have to check which artist is singing it.

6. What "Was the time that I held dear"?

From Quiz Blackmore's Night "Shadow of the Moon"

Answer: 300 years

From "Renaissance Fair". "Told her back three hundred years/ was the time that I held dear."

7. What Blackmore's Night album includes the name of Ritchie Blackmore's daughter who was born a few months before it was released?

From Quiz Blackmore's Night

Answer: Autumn Sky

"Autumn Sky" is Blackmore's Night's eighth studio release and is dedicated to Ritchie and Candice's first child, Autumn, who was born in 2010. It is one of the few Blackmore's Night albums not to have a title track. In addition to several traditional songs and songs written by Ritchie and Candice, it contains a cover version of the Kinks' "Celluloid Heroes".

8. According to the song "Renaissance Faire", what time does the singer tell her friend was the time she holds dear?

From Quiz Blackmore's Night

Answer: Back Three Hundred Years

"Renaissance Faire" is on "Shadow of the Moon", Blackmore's Night's first album as well as "Past Times with Good Company", their first live album. Blackmore's Night encourages fans to show up at concerts dressed in Renaissance garb. They offer a discount on merchandise to those fans who are dressed up and reserve some of the front row seats for those who dress up.

9. Complete the quote: "Destiny called them like a(n) _______ _________"

From "Magical World": "Destiny called them like a silver poem/ they followed the dance 'til the music died out".

10. Fill in the missing lyric from the chorus to Blackmore's Night song "Home Again". "Old familiar faces everyone you meet following the ways of the land. __________________ lining every street calling me to come home again."

From Quiz Blackmore's Night

Answer: Cobblestones and lanterns

"Home Again" is a single off of Blackmore's Night's third album, "Fires at Midnight". It is one of the band's most popular songs (and a personal favorite). At the shows I've been to, it is usually the last song of the main set, just prior to the band leaving and returning for the encore.
