500 Greatest Albums of the 1980s ... Ranked! # 295 Duran Duran - Rio

 


Oh Duran Duran. Now where do I start. They were preposterously smug. They could play and some of their singles were alright but they were hideously smug and they epitomised all the worst apects of Yuppie Aspiration and Market Forces Thatcherism that ripped a decent society to pieces . It's never quite recovered. I lie The Chauffeur. Geerally I go for some songs from the debut and that's pretty much it. There is better music to listen to. If you're after this kind of sound I suggest Japan. They were better looking too.
