Ritchie Blackmore's early days saw him mixing with colourful characters like Screaming Lord Sutch Joe Meek and Jerry Lee Lewis. Then he became a defining member of Seventies legends Deep Purple creating the rock anthems 'Black Night' and 'Smoke On The Water'. Over the years Blackmore's moodiness and eccentric behaviour his three marriages and his clashes with the law have earned him a reputation as one of rock's most abrasive figures. Yet there are many unexpected sides to this complex man. Black Knight has been written and researched by Jerry Bloom a fan who first met Ritchie more than twenty years ago and has followed his varied career ever since. The result is a biography rich in detail and full of surprising insights.
