About Duran Duran - The Essential Collection

Although written off as an '80s teeny-bopper New Wave band, Duran Duran released a great run of singles during their heyday plus some very well crafted albums. This 18 track compilation focuses on the early years and features a mixture of well-known hits, single mixes and obscure album favorites including 'Girls On Film', 'Planet Earth', 'Anyone Out There', 'Rio', 'Save A Prayer', 'Hungry Like The Wolf', 'Hold Back The Rain' and many more.

I read somewhere that this collection contained the original, extended LP version of Hungry Like the Wolf. Wrong. It's not here. It's the US CD version, which I already have. If anyone can tell me where to find that version on CD I'd be grateful. That aside, the collection is impressive as it contains lots of obscure tracks that I've never heard of. I bought it for 5 bucks, so I really can't complain. However, I'm still on a mission to get that extended version. I won't stop! October 23, 2007

This is an amazing collection of Duran Duran's best work..including the elusive cover of Make me Smile (come up and see me) a song I heard nearly 25 years ago and was so happy to find recently. If you like Duran Duran, this is the cd for you if you love Duran Duran, you already own this cd. October 18, 2007

rating: 5 Quotecollection of b-sides and album tracksQuote
This is a odd collection of Duran tracks from 1981 to 1983. Tracks 1,2,4,5,and 6 are all from their debut 1981 self-titles album. Track 3 is the b-side from the 'Careless Memories' 7 inch. Track 7 is from the 1983 re-release of their bebut album. Track 8 is the b-side to the 'My Own Way' single from 1982. Tracks 10 thru 17 are the entire 'Rio' album from 1982. And track 18 is the b-side to the 'Reflex' single, recorded live in 1982 but released in 1983. This is basically Duran's best two albums w/ some good b-sides, I'm suprised at its set up and selection, but its worth a listen June 6, 2007

The title says everything, it's their essential work. If you like it, dig for more, if not, give up. Enjoy! March 27, 2007
