Happy birthday to Warren Cuccurullo! 🎉 Before his Duran Duran days, he was with Missing Persons and he played on “I Don’t Want Your Love” before officially joining the band.

We’re featuring that track in our Big Thing episode premiering Dec 19. Stay tuned!

They were reasonable on release. Mow out of print and can be a small fortune!

Same era. Some differences in the setlist too. The Rockpalast one was live at the Music Hall, Koln. www.rockpalastarchiv.de/concert/dura... The MTV unplugged was from Sony’s music studios in New York.

Look for this bootleg. There are various versions that crop up. Just Tiger Tiger missing as it wasn’t ‘live’ I guess.

The official release was included in the Seven box set - 2 CD and DVD 👌🏼

No, not at all. You’re right. I think Seven is much more ‘produced’ than Rio. But I think that’s a symptom of a year’s difference in how music production was evolving. I seem to remember reading that the band thought it was overdone, too. Packed full of catchy tunes all the same!

Remember when I said Duran Duran's Seven and The Ragged Tiger was over-produced?

I was wrong. I pulled it out of the archives. It's a little shinier than Rio, but it's fantastic!

On those rare occasions that teenage me made it to a girl's bedroom in the 80s a 6ft poster of Duran Duran doesn't half put you off your stride #totp

In the supermarket and they’re playing Duran Duran’s Hungry Like the Wolf.

Very cunning, Sainsbury’s. Very cunning…

Classic Pop names Duran Duran’s Rio as the magazine’s #1 album!

“Rio is the perfect mix of art, disco, rock, funk and poetry. Nobody has bettered it since.”

36 years ago today ~ Burning The Ground was released to promote Decade!

The remix was created by producer John Jones, with Dee Long and engineer Chris Potter, in an upstairs room at Olympic Studios in London while Duran Duran was downstairs recording songs for the Liberty album.

Let’s zoom back to 1988, because on this day 37 years ago, Duran Duran hit No. 1 on the Billboard Club Play chart with this gem. Did you love it? Did you dance to it — maybe even to that excellent 12-inch version?

There's nothing as gloriously 80s as a Duran Duran Walkman-alike covered in sparkles There's a great inclusion in its box too

For Duran Duran fans with a spare €180…it does look cool but just not cool enough at that price! 😆

You’re right about the early finish. I wonder if a fuller version exists….

So which track is going to make the drop cut playlist? Simple. Pop Trash Movie. It’s as good as Ordinary World. But maybe I’m the only one who thinks so! What would your choice be?

Yet, creatively, for me at least, the album flows from beginning to end and I don’t skip any tracks. Starting To Remember is beautiful and Lava Lamp has psychedelic layers to it. Throughout, the guitar is high in the mix which is always a plus for me.

The album spawned three singles which weren’t released everywhere…Someone Else Not Me, Last Day On Earth and Playing With Uranium. Commercially, the album is one of the lowest points of Duran Duran’s career.
