  • tu sei un grande AHAHAHAHAHHA

  • too bad there's no Blackmore blood in you

  • Dude I married your mom too!!!! We all did

  • greatest rock guitarist of all time! ever was - ever will be!!

    I know your story is real - so don`t bother about some stupid comments.

    cheers to you and your mom from japan

  • man ur mother is a groopie

  • Who gives a fuck.

  • and how do we know that the other people are members of your family XD??

  • this is not Ritchie Blackmore, perhaps someone who looks likes to him a little bit, but he's not RB !

  • Comment removed

  • Man, I just really love the video. The timing's perfect. LOL extremely funny.

    And c'mon let's face it, real or not, if you had Ritchie Blackmore as a stepfather

    or whatever. Even if it was brief and/or you were not BORN yet.. It's still a kool thing

    that I'm sure a few people would love sharing..

  • Ha ha, this is funny and scary at the same time. Any pic of Ritchie smiling is a rare find indeed! Cheers for posting, it's definately REAL!!!

  • Do you think Richie tapped your mom in the chocolate starfish?

  • I went to HS with your mom (Amy) and her sister (Nina). I remember them both fondly.

  • @annikee59

    Yup yup! thats's awesome that you were able to find this video. what's your name?

  • dude Ritchie Blackmore fuck your mom 

  • I believe You man.....You Are Amy's son, yes ?

  • @aviopenica yes

  • Awesome, he's my hero.

  • two words DONT CARE 

  • that bloke never played for the castleford tigers!!!he was from new zealand...dunno who the bloke in the pic is

  • So I suppose this means you are trying to say Ritchie Blackmore is your brother (or stepbrother) somehow...

  • @DennisGW10 ....OMG i really didn't know people this dumb actually existed...HAHA you should be on Ripley's Believe it Or NOT, cuz frankly.....i don't believe your that dumb....like wow....

  • @jollypaperbag Well, too bad you don't know about that degree I have that you will likely NEVER even get close to. As far as your claim that people "can't just say I photoshopped it without proof"...says you!

    And Blackmore said, "This is the 1st wedding I've been to where I'm not looking for the exit sign"...which doesn't say much for your "mom". You've created an entire personna on YouTube to make this claim...I think I'll create an ID just to prove that I'm the illegitimate child of...

  • @DennisGW10 a year later...i respond...to show how much i don't care about your sorry ass. No one is crazy enough to make up a fake persona about their mom being with a famous Rock Star...If that were the case...and people WERE that crazy..they would say "he's my actual father...and i see him, sound like him, and even play like him" That would be the claim of a psycho. Not, "oh hey guys, my mom was married to Ritchie Blackmore and here's a rare one of a kind photo that no one has seen before"

  • @DennisGW10 AND i'll further say...You can't train common sense and learn Common sense from a degree...Clearly...you lack the ability to relate things together which inhibits your common sense, making you a complete and utter moron when you try and respond to an intelligent person. Anyone with a brain stem can ascertain the fact that i'm simply showing a picture of my mom's wedding with Ritchie...Like wow big deal...it was almost 30 years go. I'm just adding an artifact of Ritchie's Life..

  • so ritchie stuck his wang in ur mom who cares

  • @DanClaunch The first sensible thing i've read here

  • i believe : ]

  • Pretty awesome dude, thanks for sharing

  • Dear jollypaperbag, Have you heard anything on the revised Ritchie B biography? Last I read was that the author was interested in interviewing your mom and a few others. Would love to get the revision in my hands. Sincerely, Rich

  • @DickieT661 no i haven't heard anything yet. Last i remember, they did a phone interview i believe. that was last year i think. Sorry, i don't know anything about the author's latest edition or when it will be released

  • @jollypaperbag Thanks for getting back.

  • Dear jollypaperbag, Have you heard anything on the revised Ritchie B biography? Last I read was that the author was interested in interviewing yoru mom and a few others. Would love to get the revision in my hands. Sincerely, Rich

  • @DickieT661 sorry for the dupe

  • It is Amy (Rothman) and Ritchie, I guarantee 100 percent. She moved into our house with Ritchie in L.Island after they met at a Rainbow gig R.Island or Providence or somewhere in that area. I can back it up you disbelievers.

    Pray for Ronnie, he's staying really strong at the moment. This is my 3rd attempt at posting, that's why I never do this kind of stuff. Hello Amy if you're reading this.

  • that doesn't look like Blackmore to me close but no cigar but who cares right

    he's got a honey know Candice night is beautiful and a great match for Ritchie

    god bless them both although i'd wish he'd get enought of the tights & get back to rockin w/ Rainbow or some good project.. i can't take it when Blackmore's night start singing dp classics ..it just shouldn't be allowed..

  • Ritchie is the man!!!!!

  • You say you really do not care about this. Yet, you have more comments posted about your own video than anyone. Please get some mental help or just go away. You are a fucking idiot. Enough already. No one cares. Please stop sending me comments.

  • Comment removed

  • LMAO U should really learn to read the the description.....first of all...it says that my age is wrong on youtube. i'm currently 20 years old and my mom just turned 51 ( i think).U fail gethsenamane

  • @jollypaperbag

    Good to see that YouTube staff deleted moron gethsenamane's comments.

    Then Stepdad Ritchie has calmed down after much crazyness with Purple and it seems for me that he really enjoy his new music style.

  • I believe that your mom was married to Ritchie Blackmore. I'm just confused as to why this is important.

  • LMAO to all people that actually think i would go through such great lengths to lie about something that i don't really care that much about. I put the picture up to prove a point to other people on a different video. I have absolutely no personal ties to Ritchie besides that fact that my mom married him before i was born.... thats it. I don't understand how this is soo hard to believe or even understand. If you really still have trouble believing me, please refer to Blackmore's Knight.

  • It's an autobiography in which my mom was mentioned. She was Amy Rothman, married Ritchie, became Amy Blackmore, than married my dad and became Amy Ryan, She is now married to my stepfather and her new name is Amy Covello. If you would like to see her, she is on facebook, she'll be happy to answer any questions and clear up anything.

  • Because of this video, my mom has found many people in which she used to know in those days and so i have absolutely no regrets in putting up this video. For those of you who don't believe, i don't care. For the friends my mom has reconnected with, it was a pleasure to get in touch with you.

  • Oh shit. Truth or not, let him be. I am John Lennon's illegitimate son, I don't try and make a point or start a fight over it. LOL

  • Bullshit..

  • I know this one. The lady is the classical singer who Ritchie mentioned was the only woman he ever loved. I think she also sang on the Whitesnake 1987 album - great stuff!!!!!

  • cool :]

  • How can we know it's your mother?

  • it' a fake

  • insecure aren't you,especially if you have to validate your existence and who you come from

  • wow

  • Isn't she the one who cheated on him so badly?

  • wow dogboy....thats his mom..lolz at same time.

  • how do you know?where did you read this?

  • The book Black Knight, referred to below.

  • yes ok .He is Blackmore.

    But i don't believe that the woman in picture be your mom.

    Whic is the year!! 1979?

  • Whether or not this is true,she still made a lovely bride,very beautiful woman.

  • Check out Jerry Bloom's biography, "Black Knight" for a photo of Ritchie and Amy Rothman. The YouTube pic is real.

  • genial

    te felicito

    que nos interesa?

  • wow i belive you, hey it's an honor to know somebody who knows the great Maestro. do you talk to him?

  • What was he like?

  • you should get ritchie to train you!

  • Whether or not your mother married Blackmore, the fact is, you should thank God he wasn't your father. You'd probably be a total prick.

  • As a Ritchie fan, i love the way he plays and of course his creation in music world but as a person look like a tough cookie.

    One of the greatest fingers a guitar ever met.

  • i am margrit blackmore his first wife

    ouer son jürgen richard blackmore play now in over the rainbow evrything is tru i met amy a lovly girl

  • Hello Margrit. I hope you add me as a friend. My first husband Ian Broad used to tell me about you and Jurgen.

  • LOL.yeah what everrrrrr....LMAO

  • Well of course it's true! That's Amy! I remember hanging out with them at the house on Long Island. At the end, there was a visitation issue about the cat - a beautiful Persian or Himalayan.

  • that was my cat, Raindrop! We had him until i was 5 or so, then we gave him to my babysitter for some reason.

  • That's right. For some reason, I thought the cat's name was snow flake. i knew it was related to weather.

  • now can you put a picture of you

  • where do you get off ith all these lies?anybody could post a picture and say it's their dad.tell you what,i'll put one up of john lennon and say i'm his long lost nephew you daft idiot

  • dude, this still dont prove that was ur mom.. use ur brain next time rofl

  • haha,i don't believe this story is true but whatever:P

  • Ha ha ha! Man that was so funny! 5 stars.

  • Why are so many people being pricks about this video? His mom and Candice are both beautiful women. Hopefully his mom didn't talk shit about Gillan like Candice does. Thanks for posting this unpublished pic and sharing the history of it. Everyone else (who says fucked up things) can fuck off!

  • I never read 1 thing candice said about gillan. Only gillan talks shit about everyone. He's the ex wife!

  • Your mum is a very pretty lady. It's a pity her marriage to Blackmore didn't last.

  • that´s not ritchie. Ritchie has a bigger nose and its not round as that one in the picture.

  • sooooo true.

  • gillan should move on and be happy about what hes doing in purple not talk about everyone. its been 15 yrs since ritchie wasnt in purple anymore and all the purple guys can do is talk shit abut him and sound bitter while playing the songs he wrote to make them all money. Theyre a rb cover band now- nothing more. so sad. besides who cares all those guys are has beens anyway. only ritchie is doing something new and different. good on him!

  • Yeah ok, yer ma was married to Richard Blackmore, and he is a fuckin legend and all... but nobody gives a shit... it was nearly 30 years ago... FUCK OFF!!!

  • My mom married Ritchie to get free concert tix and my cousin was a groupie from 72-83 and then groupied for David Coverdale 84-92 then Ian Gillian 94 to present. I was a roadie for whoever paid the bills and was instrumental in overlording Waynestock. Contrary to popular belief, we WERE worthy.

  • I don't understand all the negative comments on here. Ritchie Blackmore is one of my favourite musicians of all-time, but he's just a human being like everyone else. You know, he eats breakfast, goes for walks, gets married. Why would anyone bother to mock up a picture of him? There are far more well-known people! Blackmore's simply a good musician and writer, not a media fixture. I believe this photo is genuine. Why should it not be?!

  • who cares really? i mean it was all so long ago its just weird this guy puts this on there or that something that was dead and done in teh early 80s is still kept by his mom. kinda creepy. besides- his new wedding pix are amazing AND candice has been with him for 20 years! clearly this guys mom was a mistake and didnt have nearly the staying power of candice. long live the blackmores of the 21st century!

  • Post more interesting family pictures of ritchie :D

  • your mom is amy rotham, am I right?

  • you say you were born 1989 that wood make you 20 --- on your page you say you are 41 your just a tosser

  • You're barking love. And Ritchie IS NOT ugly.

  • So you would say someone was "living in the past" if they suddenly discovered some christian artifact that proved to change the way christian's viewed their religion and shared it with the world?! Now i'm not saying this picture changes anything, but it is something interesting and new that most people have never seen beforjhjhygjghjggjygygkygjyjyy­gyjgykyjygkyjjgjkjykjgyjgkgygy­ufkytfyukhjgyulife with Candice now is so much better than what it was years before.Candice brings out the best in him.

  • This is a video response to the "Deep Purple - Ritchie Blackmore Guitar Solos (Live)." I recently said, my mom was married to Ritchie Blackmore and instead of getting "that's cool", or "that's inte...

  • what song is this its kinda cool

  • How do we know that it is your mother in the pic?

  • yeah

    i still do not believe its yo mama

  • Cool!

    Rock on!!!

  • Ritchie Blackmore:

    One of the best rock guitar players that ever lived!

    Ritchie Blackmore:

    I stinking egotistical drunk!

    Super@sshole!

    I point to his record.

    (Ritchie doesn't play well with others)

  • @ styx49

    Yeah, I'm sure she was better than all the "tree's he's been seriously known to shag" I can't wait till the Glenn Hughes biography reveals it in detail, a weird one Ritchie is, or so Glenn says... I tend to believe a word of two of Glenn's, but not all of it,so we'll see.

    @ general freaks

    Amazing how many are stuck up a talented mans ass to the point where reality doesn't exist to them. Leave Amy and her son alone for christsakes.

  • im sure Ritchie would feel you and your mom need to get a life....to live in the past as you are.I find it disrespectful to him and his new wife to post such old...years gone by .....photos which dont matter any more.I believe you are trying to get reconized by someone elses success.Leave the man and his family alone..Ritchie now has a beautiful wife..and an aswesome new band..his life with Candice now is so much better than what it was years before.Candice brings out the best in him.

  • lets say you marry Jessica Alba. Now, your telling me that you wouldn't brag your ass off that you just married one of the hottest girls in hollywood?! are you serious. Lets be real for a sec.

    So wait, i'm living in the past by posting a picture of an old wedding photo of my mom and ritchie to share with the world? Really?

    To me, this picture is history. Something fascinating and interesting. A nice little tid-bit for Blackmore Fans everywhere.

  • So you would say someone was "living in the past" if they suddenly discovered some christian artifact that proved to change the way christian's viewed their religion and shared it with the world?! Now i'm not saying this picture changes anything, but it is something interesting and new that most people have never seen before. So why don't you shut the fuck up, and go help Ritchie wipe his ass because it sounds like your an over obsessed fan that "needs to get a life." Prick

  • Oh F -OFF!!! YOUR JUST F'EN JEALOUS HE GOT REMARRIED...AND THE WIFE HE MARRIED IS MUCH BETTER LOOKING THAN YOU ..BY FARRRRRR!!..

    WITH MUCH MORE TALENT!!!!

  • are you fucking kidding me? I'm jealous that my mom broke up with Ritchie?! Are u serious. If they didn't break up, i would not have been born you stupid bitch. Why the fuck would i want that? Plus i would have been an ugly kid, cuz Ritchie is ugly. I'm glad they didn't stay together...and if i recall...u stupid fucking idiot....MY MOM DIVORCED HIM!!! not the other way around. Get your fucking facts straight before you go running your mouth....ahhaah your such an idiot.

  • dude- you think ritchie is ugly? cant WAIT to see your picture. with your genes- from your moms side- i may need a barf bag by my computer before i see what you look like. why are you so petty and why are you and your mom living in the past ?i mean over 30 years ago? and she STILL holds onto the wedding picture? pretty pathetic....MOVE ON LOSERS!

  • So what happened?

  • Ritchies wife now..Candice Night ..who he just married last fall...is wayyyyyyyy more beautiful then anyone of his other wives...Candice not only is beautiful but has the most beautiful voice i have ever heard ...you have to take a listen to her and Ritchies band BLACKMORES NIGHT...its fantastic!...oh by the way to the guy who posted the pic...umm..sorry but Candice is better looking than your MUM..LOL..

  • Having read Black Knight by Jerry Bloom, I'd say the woman in this picture looks like Amy Rothman. Am I right?

  • So Ritchie shagged your mum..... big deal. He must have had HUNDREDS of birds! :D

  • did you meet him, or didn't you??

  • WTF??

  • FAKE!

  • Very cool :).

  • what title of this song???

  • gates of babylon (band:rainbow-album:long live rock n roll 1978)

  • Blimey a picture of Blackmore smiling! Don't blame him mind - she's a good lookin gal.

  • If he was smiling with Amy, he must be grinning his bloody head off now he's married Candice.

  • Her name´s Amy Rothman, right? And you - what do you think ´bout Ritchie and his music? Got talent too?

  • that's cool.

  • que groso

  • my cousin is ronnie james dios sisters wife no joke hes nice in person escpiccaly in the 80s so techanicly my cousins brother in law knows ur mothers ex-husband cool!

  • u faaKKin' goose

  • thats wat the people said to that guy

  • btw good video though:)

  • if it's true,i don't care if ritchie fucked your mamma ; )

  • fake fake fake

  • What to think? Do you believe Ritchie Blackmore is your Dad? He may or may not be! Do you have Ritchie Blackmore's musical genes (jeans)? These are respectful questions. Me--I helped Steven Tyler compose

    "Amazing Grace".... hundreds of years ago, when African slave trade was still legal and considered mostly OK.....

  • she'd go to "sparks" soon as ritchie left town to make money- she would spend it on limos to the local rock club and sleep with any musician there. YUK! ritchie walked in on her and another guy thats what

  • dude your mom is a loser groupie if shes holding on to a 30 yr old photo of a wedding! what happened to the guy shes with now? doesnt like him anymore? doesnt he play an instrument? so sad,,

  • Yeah have to say when i was with bruce payne in the early 80`s (rainbow manager) he did say the this "amy rothman" cheated on blackmore which in reality blackmore still had his heart for another girl before amy "hoe" rothman called shoshanna but still thats life.. see if you were born to become some kind of slag and not be loyal then its down to her upbringing even thou blackmore cheated big time still its that of being a rock n roll although she sucked most of his earnings?

  • Send this pic to Candice via Blackmore's Night website she'll love it !

  • yeah right- so much to be jealous of~ the buck teeth- the fatness- the frizz head- HA! i think shes safe!!

  • Yeah ok..didn't really wanna know what you look like but ok.

  • We know your mum was married to Ritchie as we were invited to the wedding. We'd love to get in contact with Amy again. She'll remember us from France, London and New York. Send her all our love.

    J&J

  • so what it's a picture of blackmore and his ex,shall i post a few from google images too and say he's my long lost brother?!have you nothing better to do with your time idiot

  • i double that thought!

  • So ritchie blackmore fucked your mother, big deal. so did all the deep purple members.

  • hahaha nice 1

  • I met Ritchie Blackmore and his wife AMY at my sisters house back in the 80's in Northport, Long Island.

    YES, the picture is real................

  • How did that meeting go?

  • dude- that was 30 yrs ago- who cares? get a life and move on like a NORMAL person!

  • Which ear?

  • go and wwahc yourself!!

  • ritchies hair maybe a bit strange now considering hes got more now than he did then,but m8 thats just age it happens to us all,but back then that was his hair,it pretty blaten,but also have a bit of respect you prick,for ritchie and his ex amy.

  • I believe you.I dont get why so many people think you would post that family photo and bother answer lots o q'ns just to make joke of it.I think its pretty cool. There are thousands of fans who enjoy reading your replies.

    Im a RB admirer too.I put on youtube some of my attempts to sound like him hah.His music inspired me to learn play guitar.I respect anything that promotes it,he is underrated when it comes to charts an all that

    So thanks again,best regards to your son and especially your mom!

  • I'd fuck my step-dad if he was Ritchie.

  • i would never say to you stuff like "OMG FUCK U PSYCHO" tbh i believe you. flames could be disagreement but if u get stuff like above its plain jealousy by fanatic RB fans

  • if that's a true and by the dates in your info her name was Amy Rothman before she married blackmore, this was his 3rd marriage.

  • if that was your father, ritchie blackmore, you wouldnt be whining about that in youtube, dont you agree?

  • how many times do i have to say...he's not my father...my mom married him before she met my dad..I don't understand why that's so hard to understand.

  • but how can we know that this is your mom or those are your grandparents?

  • i really like the way the guitars come in during the song right as it shows ritchie blackmore. i totally believe you by the way.

  • jajaja

    vamo ritchie todavia!!

  • Here's the question I want to know: wig or weave?

  • to geth

    Man, what are you talking about?

    "..who looks just like a ..guitar player.."

    -That man on that picture IS Blackmore.

    I can tell you that for sure. And while we're at it: watch your language. I don't like people using the F-word or attac someones mom.

  • wow, thanks dude, i couldn't have said that better myself

  • People all over the World were interested in this...?

  • Hey Man, That is absoluetly cool. Bring some more stories about the life of your mom with Ritchie. This is GOLD, so interesting. Thanks for posting this! Rock on

    Svet

  • Call at the telephone your daddy,0690-4355-2455.

  • so i assume ur mother's name is Amy Rothman?

  • yes it is

  • I think this: Thats sick when you arguing with some1 without reason, but thats sicker when you showing your mother old marriage photos in the internet:D I know i know... It's Ritchie Blackmore but... WHO CARES??? DO YOU GET MONEY FROM HIM? OR SOMETHING ELSE??? I think the people doesn't cares about your familytree:D

  • I don't care about all this project. Mr Blackmore rules!!!

  • thanks for the pic and yeah there is no way that it's photoshoped in any way couse it's real

  • is*

  • so you must be like 150 yrs old?

  • my dad in mozart

  • Do you have some kind of need to prove that your mom was married to Richie?

  • not really...no biggie, whatever dude

  • ur mom WAS married to ritchie? errr....congratulations??? :s

  • Your Mom is very pretty- Ritche was lucky

  • I was just wondering...isn't this about the time period Blackmore had a cat named Raindrop?

    Thanks for the interesting photo. Hm..maybe your mom could write a book--or article--or something about her experiences.

    Hope you don't get too many negative comments.

    Regards

    Fred

  • I believe you. My dad's aunt dated Elvis when they were both 14. She eventually broke up with Elvis. They remained friends over the years. She passed away last March. There's no way I can prove it though. But there is a documentary from 1990 about Elvis's past girlfriends and wives and she was on there talking about it. It was funny because they got actors to do a whole re-enactment of her relationship and break up with Elvis. I heard some stories about him if you are interested.

  • Also a note about my feelings toward Elvis... Personally, I respect Elvis as a musician and like some of his early songs. But I wouldn't consider myself an Elvis fan. I don't really idolize him and only seen one of his movies because there was nothing else on at the time. Ritchie Blackmore though? Now to me that's cool! He's one of my favorite guitar players.

  • Anyway, I know how you feel. When you tell someone that you have some ties to someone famous, people automatically think you're making it up. In their mind they think it's impossible or unheard of and they think you're a liar. And for that reason I don't tell that many people. But I figured I'd tell you because I know how you feel. And some of these other people on YouTube will say I'm lying. I don't give a shit. Not trying to impress them. I'm basically telling you, not them anyway.

  • thanks for your comments....there will always be the doubting thomas' is the world and that's great because it's their opinion, right or wrong...and we all have that right!

  • Yes. You are right. If they don't want to believe that's their problem. Like I said, since elementary school I decided to quit telling people unless they become really good friends. Because most people don't think something like that is possible but it's more common than they think.

  • If you're just telling jolly, and not the rest of youtube..why not send a private message instead of posting a comment ??
