MADONNA “Original Album Series” /Slipcase 5CD Set/

The ninth full-length studio album by legendary American Pop singer.
The album, produced by Madonna and Mirwais Ahmadzaï, features references to many parts of American culture. It is a concept album, with themes of the American Dream and materialism. These themes reject the reputation Madonna held in the 1980s, earned by songs such as her worldwide hit "Material Girl" (1985).
The album contains Folk and Folktronica music, as well as influences of acoustic music.
"American Life" initially received mixed reviews; critics found the record confusing and "about Madonna". Retrospective reviews have been much warmer, with critics noting the album's consistency as well as acknowledging Madonna taking a risk musically.
After its release, "American Life" debuted at number one on the United States Billboard 200 chart with 241,000 copies sold in its first week. The sales were less than Madonna's previous studio album, "Music", which debuted with 420,000 copies in 2000, but was the only one that week to sell over 200,000 copies. It was Madonna's second consecutive number one debut, and her fifth number one album overall in the US.
In Canada, the album debuted at the top of the Canadian Albums Chart with sales of 18,000 copies on May 10, 2003. According to Nielsen SoundScan, the sum was considerably less than her previous studio efforts, "Ray Of Light" (1998) and "Music" (2000), which debuted with 59,000 and 50,000 copies respectively.
In the United Kingdom, "American Life" debuted atop the UK Albums Chart, with sales of 65,013 copies, much less than the opening sum of 2000's "Music", which debuted with sales of 151,891 copies. It was present for a total of 19 weeks on the chart, ranking at number 52 on the UK year-end tally.
The album peaked at number one in fourteen countries. In European countries, the album topped the charts in Austria, Belgium (Flanders), Belgium (Wallonia), Denmark, France, Italy, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland.
The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and British Phonographic Industry (BPI) both certified it Platinum in recognition of 1,000,000 shipments in the United States, and 300,000 shipments in the United Kingdom, respectively. It gained a Platinum certification one month later from the Canadian Recording Industry Association (CRIA), for shipment of 100,000 copies of the album. In Japan, the album peaked at number four on the Oricon Weekly Albums chart remaining there for 13 weeks, and went on to gain a Gold certification from the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ) that same year, for shipping 100,000 copies of the release. In Australia the album peaked at number three, before descending rapidly down the ARIA Albums Chart. Nevertheless, it gained a Platinum certification from the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) for shipping 70,000 copies. The album also gained Platinum certifications in countries such as France, Russia, and Switzerland, and Gold certifications in Brazil, Greece, and the Netherlands.
Overall, "American Life" became the 32nd best-selling album of 2003, with 5,000,000 copies sold worldwide. "American Life" garnered two nominations at the 46th Grammy Awards in 2004. However, it became the third lowest selling studio album by Madonna behind her 2012 release "MDNA" and her 2015 release "Rebel Heart", with sales of 680,000 copies as of October 2012, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
This double LP issued in a matte gatefold sleeve with generic die-cut inner sleeves with rounded corners. Although correctly spelled on the label, "Nothing Fails" is misspelled as "Nothing Falls" on the sleeve.

Second re-release of the second full-length studio album by legendary American Pop singer.
Madonna had hits with her first album, even reaching the Top Ten twice with "Borderline" and "Lucky Star", but she didn't become a superstar, an icon, until her second album, "Like a Virgin". Following the success of her self-titled debut album, Madonna wanted to become the record producer of her next album. However, her label was not ready to give her the artistic freedom to produce the album, and she chose Nile Rodgers, former Chic guitarist (due to his work with David Bowie), to help her expand her sound, and then carefully constructed her image as an ironic, ferociously sexy "Boy Toy". Madonna wrote six songs on the record, five of which feature Steve Bray as a co-writer.
While not a substantial musical departure from Madonna's first album, she felt that the material from "Like A Virgin" was stronger. After its release, "Like A Virgin" received mixed reviews from music critics, but was a commercial success. It became Madonna's first number one album on the Billboard 200 and set the record as the first female album in history to sell over five million copies in the United States. The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) later certified it Diamond for shipment of ten million units. It also reached number one in Germany, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Spain and the United Kingdom, and remains one of the best-selling albums of all time with sales of over 21 million copies worldwide!

First re-release of the second official compilation album by legendary American Pop singer.
"Something To Remember" compiling a selection of the singer's ballads, spanning over a decade of her career, including a remixed version of "Love Don't Live Here Anymore" and three new songs: "You'll See", "One More Chance" and a cover of Marvin Gaye's "I Want You", recorded with the British Trip-Hop band Massive Attack. The album also features previously released singles that had never been included on a Madonna album, "I'll Remember" and "This Used to Be My Playground", and altogether provided a softer image for the singer during a critical period in her career. Several of her biggest hits are included, including the number ones "Crazy for You", "Live to Tell", "This Used to Be My Playground", and "Take a Bow".
Only two tracks on the album overlap with "The Immaculate Collection".
Throughout the album, Madonna proves that she's a terrific singer whose voice has improved over the years. Not one of the tracks is second-rate, and the best songs on "Something To Remember" rank among the best Pop music of the '80s and '90s!!

Third re-release of the third full-length studio album by legendary American Pop queen.
"True Blue" is the album where Madonna truly became superstar - the endlessly ambitious, fearlessly provocative entertainer who knew how to outrage, spark debates, get good reviews, and make good music while she's at it.
What's brilliant about "True Blue" is that she does both here, using the music to hook in critics just as she's baiting a mass audience with such masterstrokes as "Papa Don't Preach", where she defiantly states she's keeping her baby. Her real trick here, however, is transcending her status as a Dance-Pop diva by consciously recalling classic girl group Pop ("True Blue", "Jimmy Jimmy") to snag the critics, while deepening the dance grooves ("Open Your Heart", "Where's the Party"), touching on Latin rhythms ("La Isla Bonita"), making a plea for world peace ("Love Makes the World Go Round"), and delivering a tremendous ballad that rewrites the rules of adult contemporary crossover ("Live to Tell").
It's even harder to have the entire album play as an organic, cohesive work. Certainly, there's some calculation behind the entire thing, but what matters is the end result, one of the great Dance-Pop albums, a record that demonstrates Madonna's true skills as a songwriter, record-maker, provocateur, and entertainer through its wide reach, accomplishment, and sheer sense of fun.
"True Blue" was an immediate global success, reaching number one in then record-breaking 28 countries across the world, including Australia, Canada, France, Germany, United Kingdom and United States. It spent 34 consecutive weeks at the top of the European Top 100 Albums chart, longer than any other album in history. It became the world's top-selling album of 1986, as well as the best-selling album of the 1980s by a female artist. With estimated sales of over 25 million copies worldwide, "True Blue" remains one of the best-selling albums of all time. All five singles released from the album reached the top five on the Billboard Hot 100, with "Live to Tell", "Papa Don't Preach", and "Open Your Heart" peaking at number one.
"True Blue" is credited as being the album which established Madonna's position as the biggest female artist of the 1980s, rivaling male musicians like Michael Jackson and Prince. The album's singles and their accompanying music videos have sparked debates among scholars and social groups. She became the first female artist to receive the Video Vanguard Award at the 1986 MTV Video Music Awards in recognition of her impact on popular culture. The album also gave her first appearance on the Guinness Book of World Records.

The eighth full-length studio album by legendary American Pop singer.
Following the success of her previous album "Ray Of Light" (1998), Madonna intended to embark on a tour. However, her record company encouraged her to return to the studio and record new music before going on the road. Her collaboration with producers Mirwais Ahmadzaï and William Orbit resulted a more experimental direction for the album. "Music" has an overall Dance-Pop and Electronica vibe, with influences from Rock, Country and Folk. Elaborating a Country theme for the album, Madonna reinvented her image as a cowgirl.
Filled with vocoders, stylish Neo-Electro beats, dalliances with Trip-Hop, and, occasionally, eerie synthesized atmospherics, "Music" blows by in a kaleidoscopic rush of color, technique, style, and substance. It has so many layers that it's easily as self-aware and earnest as "Ray Of Light", where Madonna's studiousness complemented a record heavy on spirituality and reflection. Here, she mines that territory occasionally, especially as the record winds toward its conclusion, but she applies her new tricks toward celebrations of music itself. That's not only true of the full-throttle dance numbers but also for ballads like "I Deserve It" and "Nobody's Perfect", where the sentiments are couched in Electronic effects and lolling, rolling beats. Ultimately, that results in the least introspective or revealing record Madonna has made since "Like A Prayer", yet that doesn't mean she doesn't invest herself in the record. Working with a stable of producers, she has created an album that is her most explicitly musical and restlessly creative since, "Like A Prayer". Whenever she works with Mirwais, Music truly comes alive with the spark and style.
The album was supported by the Drowned World Tour, which grossed over $75.000.000, making it the highest-grossing tour by a solo act of 2001 (the fourth overall).
Three singles were released from the album. Its lead single, "Music", topped the record charts in 25 countries worldwide and became Madonna's 12th number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100. It was followed with another Hot 100 top-five hit "Don't Tell Me" and "What It Feels Like for a Girl" which attained the top-ten position in several countries worldwide. "Impressive Instant" was released as promotional single, peaking at number one on the Hot Dance Club Play chart.
"Music" was generally acclaimed by most critics and earned Madonna five Grammy Award nominations, ultimately winning one for Best Recording Package. "Music" debuted at number-one in 23 countries. It was also a commercial success. The album set a record in Warner Music Group as the biggest album shipment in the company, with three million copies worldwide in the first week. 
In the United States, "Music" debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 with first week sales of 420.000 units, making it Madonna's first album to top the chart in more than a decade since "Like A Prayer" (1989). In Canada, the album debuted at the top of the Canadian RPM Albums Chart and was certified Platinum by the Canadian Recording Industry Association (CRIA) for shipments of 300.000 copies. In 2003, Rolling Stone ranked it number 452 on the magazine's list of The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. On November 21, 2005, the album was certified three times Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for 3.000.000 units shipped in the United States. As of August 2010, "Music" has sold 2.925.000 copies there according to Nielsen SoundScan and has sold over 11.000.000 copies worldwide, becoming one of the best-selling albums during the 2000s century.

The twelfth full-length studio album by legendary American Pop singer.
"MDNA" was Madonna's first release under the 360 deal she had signed with Live Nation in 2007 and the three-album deal with Interscope in 2012. 
A Pop and Electronic Dance Music (EDM) record, "MDNA" consists of upbeat songs which lyrically explore themes of partying, love for music, infatuation, as well as heartbreak, revenge and separation. The album's title is a triple entendre and its allusion to "MDMA" drew negative reception from anti-drug groups.
Music critics were ambivalent towards the album. They praised Orbit's production and the ballads, but criticized the lyrics as well as Madonna for being regressive with her music. "MDNA" topped the record charts in most musical markets. Madonna set a new record for the most number-one albums by a solo artist in Australia and the United Kingdom. "MDNA" was the twelfth best-selling album of 2012 globally, and went on to sell two million copies.

Deluxe version of the thirteenth full-length studio album by legendary American Pop singer.
Thematically, "Rebel Heart" represents the singer's romantic and rebellious sides; the ideas grew organically during the writing and recording sessions. Musically, it is a Pop record, which merges an array of genres such as 1990s House, Trap, and Reggae, while using acoustic guitars and a gospel choir. Some of the songs are autobiographical in nature, while others talk about love and Madonna's career.
"Rebel Heart" features guest appearances by boxer Mike Tyson and rappers Nicki Minaj, Nas and Chance the Rapper. Unlike her previous endeavors, working with many collaborators posed problems for Madonna in keeping a cohesive sound and creative direction for the album.
"Rebel Heart" received predominantly positive reviews from music critics; multiple reviewers called it Madonna's best effort in a decade. They found that unlike her two previous studio efforts, "Hard Candy" (2008) and "MDNA" (2012), the album's sound was progressive. "Rebel Heart" peaked at number two on the US Billboard 200 while reaching number one in major music markets such as Australia, Canada, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Switzerland. It also attained certifications in seven countries.
Deluxe version features five additional tracks!

The fourth full-length studio album by legendary American Pop diva.
The album uses live instrumentation and incorporates elements of dance, funk, gospel, and soul into a more general pop style.
Like a Prayer received universal acclaim and, commercially, it was an international success, reaching the top of the charts in multiple territories, and was certified quadruple Platinum in the United States by the Recording Industry Association of America. "Like a Prayer" became Madonna's seventh number-one hit on the US Billboard Hot 100, while "Express Yourself" and "Cherish" peaked at number two and "Keep It Together" became a top-ten hit. Worldwide, the album has sold over 15 million copies. At the end of the 1980s, following the release of the album, Madonna was named "Artist of the Decade" by several publications.

The first greatest hits album by legendary American Pop singer.
Originally released on November 9, 1990, it contains new remixes of fifteen of her hit Singles from 1983 to 1990, as well as two new songs. Its title is a loose pun on the Immaculate Conception, the conception of the Virgin Mary without the stain of original sin.
An EP titled "The Holiday Collection" was released in Europe to accompany the compilation and the re-release of "Holiday", which included three hits not included on the main compilation.
"Justify My Love", the album's lead single, became Madonna's ninth number-one Single on the Billboard Hot 100. Its music video included sexual themes and was banned by MTV, becoming one of Madonna's most controversial Singles. "Rescue Me" was released as the second Single and became the highest-debuting single on the Hot 100 by a female artist at that time, entering the chart at number 15 and eventually peaking at number nine. "Holiday" was reissued in Europe as the album's third Single and peaked at nine on the UK Singles Chart.
On November 24, 1990, "The Immaculate Collection" debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart, remaining there for nine weeks, becoming the biggest selling UK album in 1990, also breaking the record for the longest consecutive weeks at number one by a solo female artist, a record that would not be matched until 2011 by Adele's album "21".
In the United States, "The Immaculate Collection" reached number two on the Billboard 200, while topping the album charts in the United Kingdom. It became Madonna's second album to be certified Diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for shipments of over 10,000,000 copies in the United States. Additionally, the album topped the charts in Australia, Canada and Finland, and the top-five in France, the Netherlands and Spain. The compilation was certified 12× Platinum by Australian Recording Industry Association, becoming one of the best-selling albums in Australia. In the United Kingdom, "The Immaculate Collection" was certified 12× Platinum by British Phonographic Industry (BPI) for shipment of 3.6 million copies. In France, the album was certified Diamond for shipment of one million copies of the album. In August 2018, the album was confirmed by the Official Charts Company to have sold 3.77 million copies, making it the biggest-selling album by a solo female artist in British history, the fourth biggest-selling the greatest hits album in the UK by any artist, and the 12th biggest-selling album of all time in the UK. Additionally, during its performance in 1990 the album sold 330,000 in a week, becoming in the second highest weekly total on record according to Official Charts Company. According to the Official Chart Company, "The Immaculate Collection" is one of the Top 50 Ireland's biggest female artist albums of all-time.

Limited edition re-release of the debut full-length studio album by legendary American Pop singer.
After having established herself as a singer in downtown New York City, Madonna was signed by Sire Records' president Seymour Stein, due to the club success of her debut Single, "Everybody" (1982). She became the sole writer for most of the album's tracks, and chose Reggie Lucas as its primary producer. Unhappy with Lucas's production outputs, Madonna invited John "Jellybean" Benitez to complete the album, who remixed three tracks and produced "Holiday".
To promote the album, Madonna performed one-off gigs in clubs and on television in the United States and United Kingdom throughout 1983 and 1984, followed by The Virgin Tour in 1985. Five singles were released, including the international top-ten hits "Holiday", "Lucky Star", and "Borderline". 
"Madonna" peaked at number eight on the Billboard 200, and was certified five-times Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for shipment of five million copies across the United States. It reached the top 10 of the charts in Australia, France, Netherlands, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom, and sold more than 10 million copies worldwide. The album was ranked 5 on Entertainment Weekly's list of the "Top 100 Best Albums of Past 25 Years" in 2008. The album has been credited for setting the standard of Dance-Pop for decades afterward, and for pointing the direction for numerous female artists of the 1980s.

Re-release of the first soundtrack album by legendary American Pop singer.
It was released to promote the film of the same name, "Who's That Girl". The album also contains songs by her label mates Scritti Politti, Duncan Faure, Club Nouveau, Coati Mundi and Michael Davidson. The soundtrack is credited as a Madonna album, despite her only performing four of the nine tracks on the album.
Three of the Madonna tracks were released as Singles. The title track became her sixth number-one Single on the Billboard Hot 100, making her the first artist to accumulate six number-one Singles in the 1980s, and the first female performer to get that many number-ones as a solo act. "Causing a Commotion" was released as the second Single, and reached number two on the Hot 100. "The Look of Love" was a European market-only release, reaching the top 10 in the United Kingdom. Another track, "Turn It Up" was a promotional release in the United States, reaching number 15 on the dance charts. "Who's That Girl" received a further promotion from the successful Who's That Girl World Tour.
Although, after its release, the "Who's That Girl" soundtrack received a mostly negative response from critics, it was a commercial success, reaching the top 10 of the album charts of the United States, Austria, Canada, France, New Zealand, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, while topping the charts of Germany, and the European Album chart. The album went on to sell 6 million copies worldwide.
