MADONNA Ray of Light hails from 2018 and is
a SEALED limited edition 180 Gram 2LP pressed on Clear Vinyl issued for Record
Store Day. Madonna's
classic Ray of Light comes to record stores for Black Friday 2018 in this
double clear vinyl 20th anniversary edition! There is an elemental aura to the music
of Madonna's transcendent 1998 Warner Bros. release, Ray of
Light, an alchemy of sounds and images, an interplay of dreams and visions. Her
first collection of new songs since 1994's Bedtime Stories, Ray Of
Light, featuring the stunning single "Frozen," marked a musical
departure astonishing even for this quintessentially chimerical artist. Working
closely with an elite cadre of inspired collaborators, most notably
globally-acclaimed producer and remix magician William
Orbit, Madonna created a sound that blends and borrows from the best
of the ambient and electronic music revolution and fused it with her own
unerring pop sensibility.
Alternately
elusive and explicit, playful and profound, risky and welcoming, Ray Of
Light is the most audacious, atmospheric and sheerly awesome song cycle in
the artist's epochal recorded output. From the unflinching honesty of
"Drowned World/Substitute For Love" to the fabulous frivolity of
"Candy Perfume Girl"; from the sultry whisper of "Skin" to
the nurturing bliss of "Little Star"; and from the exotic ecstasy of
"Shanti/Ashtangi" to the harrowing beauty of "Mer
Girl," Ray Of Light reveals a woman in the throes of a
life-changing transformation, both artistically and personally.
Ray
of Light won four Grammy Awards from a total of six nominations including
Best Pop Album and Best Dance Recording. Surprisingly, it marked the first
time Madonna was honored in a musical category as she had previously
only won in the video category.
