Mariah Carey – Merry Christmas / 45RPM 2LP Mobile Fidelity

Mariah Carey didn’t become the Queen of Christmas just because of her fervent love of the holiday. Or as the result of a brilliant marketing plan. The iconic singer earned her title by way of her blockbuster “Merry Christmas”,

a 1994 album that quickly joined the likes of Bing Crosby’s “White Christmas”, “A Jolly Christmas” from Frank Sinatra, and Nat King Cole’s “The Christmas Song” as an all-time holiday vocal classic. Featuring a balanced mix

of inspired originals and well-chosen covers, Carey’s fourth studio record has only grown in stature as new generations discover its magic. Mobile Fidelity’s 30th anniversary edition reissue of Merry Christmas makes her

spellbinding performances and upper-tier register come alive like never before.

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.
