Album Notes and Credits

Notes & Personnel Info
Few need to be reminded of Mariah Carey's prodigious vocal talents, or her unimpeachable string of chart-topping singles, but this succinctly titled Columbia Legacy retrospective neatly avoids potential redundancy by focusing on Carey's slow-burning ballads, which served as showcases for her legendary five octave vocal range. Though all of these selections are heavy on vocal pyrotechnics, Carey never lets her virtuosity overwhelm the solidly original songwriting in evidence on numbers like "Dreamlover" and "Vision of Love." As Carey's career progressed, she began to lean more towards the dance/R&B market, so though BALLADS includes selections from all of her albums for Columbia, it's track list is weighted towards her earlier releases like MUSIC BOX and MARIAH CAREY.

Mariah Carey - The Ballads - CD Review
By: David Bowling - Blogcritics.org Reviews

I am sort of outside the Mariah Carey appreciation generation or put another way I am old. As such, I am a lot more attracted to her slower songs rather than her up-tempo material. That makes her latest release, The Ballads, a perfect album for me....read the full review
