Sourced from the original master tapes, pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing, and strictly limited to 4,000 numbered copies, the pioneering label's 180g 45RPM 2LP set of Merry Christmas plays with riveting detail, depth, and dimensionality. Available in audiophile quality for the first time since its original release three decades ago, and featuring the bonus track "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen," the nine-times-platinum set breathes with a newfound transparency that enhances the spirituality, passion, and festive tenor of Carey's singing.
Benefitting from the superb definition afforded by the wide 45RPM grooves, the music takes on a heightened energy and anticipatory emotion synonymous with the holiday season. Carey's signature vocals explode with liveliness and dynamics, the full scope of her acrobatic range presented in clear, transparent sound that practically places her on a small stage in your listening room. This collectible version also breathes with the kind of warmth, intimacy, and coziness you want from a landmark vocal album.
