There is a definite difference in the meanings or usage of the verb 'to ravish' (very little used) and the adjective, 'ravishing'. My Australian dictionary defines it as meaning 'enchanting', which is like 'magical'.
My 'beautiful' definition given earlier is not accurate.
-6 degrees? 'Polar', 'Ouch' not for me!
Probably Violent Femmes is not truely 'roots'. They were described as 'Psyco-billy'. Punk mixed with american traditional influnces. First two albums. Third album saw a big change in style with a funk sound being purveyed (also excellent though).
