Mariah Carey

Just recently bought the "Remixes" album and really liking the Def & Morales mixes. So I'm wondering if there are any of the Mariah mixes worth checking out beyond the ones included on this album?

Such a good introduction to her remixes. She really was the queen of them, especially for the fact she often recorded new, specific vocal takes, if I'm not mistaken.

I actually use the Honey So So Def mix more, if I'm not listening to the full album. I LOVE the different references to the samples present in the original and the mix. That's not even to mention the dance mix... I loved that she'd service the same song differently to different markets. Not about slapping a different beat on... same song in a different form.

I love the fact that she used to specifically re-record vocals. That's resulted in some mixes that are starkly different from the originals (e.g. the Mr. Dupri Mix of Always Be My Baby and I think the Soul Convention remix of Anytime You Need A Friend) and her discography has definitely benefited.
 
Is she definitely doing the Christmas shows in New York this year? Want to go but won't book flights until I know I've got tickets for the gig.

It's highly frustrating that she announces it so late in the year so non-US fans have little time to get their business in order (flights, leave and funds etc). I would love to go as I think it'd be properly magical.
 
Maybe stay in London.

Are you teasing something here?!

I'm tossing up between buying Rainbow or Glitter vinyls (or both)... the Glitter one is actually quite dear. It must be mega rare but it'll look beautiful framed.
