Blackmore’s Night
I found Blackmore's Night by searching a P2P network for Greensleeves in order to practice recognizing minor-third intervals for my Fundamentals of Music class. I liked Blackmore's Night's version of Greensleeves enough to look for more of their music a few months later. Now they're my favorite band.
I bought their two newest (studio) CDs for my parents for Hanukkah/Christmas. My mom loves them. (I won't pretend that buying CDs as presents is a long-term excuse for downloading large amounts of music without paying for it.)

Hi Jesse Ruderman.
If you like to know more about “Blackmore”, search the web for “Deep Purple” (the british band) and “Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow”. That was, I think, completely different music. A very good source of information on Ritchie Blackmore is http://www.thehighwaystar.com. These guys have achieved to put together a complete discography – from the early 1960s up to now.
