Mariah Carey – Emotions (LP Vinyl)

Recorded when Carey was still in her early twenties, Emotions arrived in 1991 and showcased a vocal range that left session musicians and producers genuinely stunned. The title track's whistle register runs became an immediate benchmark, the kind of moment that shifts what listeners expect from a pop record. Reissued here on vinyl, the warmth of the format suits these arrangements far better than anyone might have anticipated.
