	Duran Duran Duran Duran 1981 Capitol Records 1983 re-issue			Girls On Film Planet Earth Anyone Out There Careless Memories Is There Something I .................. Should Know? *	Night Boat Sound of Thunder Friends of Mine Tel Aviv * CD Bonus Track (1983)
Danceable tunes with an original sound. This is the re-issue of thehir debut album, including the then-current single 'Is There Something I Should Know?' A hint of great things to come.

	Duran Duran Rio 1982 Capitol Records			Rio My Own Way Lonely in Your Nightmare Hungry Like the Wolf Hold Back the Rain	New Religion Last Chance On the Stairway Save a Prayer til the .................. Morning After The Chauffeur
Brilliance, sheer and utter brilliance. This album is a home run with bases loaded, down by three in the bottom of the ninth, in the last game of the world series. Yeah, it's that great.

	Duran Duran Seven and the Ragged Tiger 1983 Capitol Records			The Reflex New Moon On Monday (I'm Looking for) Cracks in ................... the Pavement I Take the Dice Of Crime and Passion	Union of the Snake Shadows On Your Side Tiget Tiger The Seventh Stranger
TOO COMMERCIAL!! If Simon LeBon whined just one more time on this record, I would have taken a sledgehammer to it. May have sold a zillion copies, but this record stunk!

	Duran Duran Arena 1984 Capitol Records			Is There Someting I Should ................................. Know? Hungry Like the Wolf New Religion Save a Prayer The Wild Boys	The Seventh Stranger The Chauffer Union of the Snake Planet Earth Careless Memories
The obligatory live album, culled from their world tour in 1983-84. With new studio track, 'Wild Boys.' Starting to try just a little too hard, fellas.

	Duran Duran Notorious 1986 Capitol Records			Notorious American Science Skin Trade A Matter of Feeling Hold Me	Vertigo (Do the Demolition) So Misled "Meet El Presidente" Winter Marches On Proposition
Now a trio, DD began to sound more like Arcadia than the Fab Five of the early 80s. Not that that's a bad thing, just interesting.

	Duran Duran Big Thing! 1988 Capitol Records			Big Thing I Don't Want Your Love All She Wants Is Too Late Marlene Drug (It's just a state of mind) Do You Believe in Shame?	Palomino Interlude One Land Flute Interlude The Edge of America Lake Shore Driving
Probably their last big record. More true dance and industrial than anything they'd done before. Interesting.

	Duran Duran Liberty 1990 Capitol Records			Violence of Summer ......... (Love's Taking Over) Liberty Hothead Serious All Along the Water My Antarctica	First Impression Read My Lips Can You Deal With It Venice Drownining Downtown
A helluva good try. Too bad it sank without a trace. Some good tunes, some over-indulgent ones. Nobody heard it.

	Duran Duran Duran Duran 1993 Capitol Records			Too Much Information Ordinary World Love Voodoo Drowning Man Shotgun Come Undone	Breath After Breath UMF None of the Above Femme Fatale Shelter To Whom It May Concern Sin of the City
Although they never went away, this was a comback album of sorts for the Durannies. I thought it wa a great album, and though it did score on some singles charts, I thought it should have been more successful than it was. Idiotic record buying public.

	Duran Duran Thank You 1995 Capitol Records			White Lines I Wanna Take You Higher Perfect Day Watching the Detectives Lay Lady Lay 911 is a Joke	Success Crystal Ship Ball of Confusion Thank You Driveby I Wanna Take You Higher ..... ..... ..... ..... ......... Again
A compilation of their favourite songs and influences. Lou Reed? A DD influence? The Doors? Public Enemy?! Okay. I never heard those influences in their music before, but what do I know?

	Duran Duran Medazzaland 1997 Capitol Records			Medazzaland Big Bang Generation Electric Barbarella Out of My Mind Who Do You Think You Are? Silva Halo	Be My Icon Buried in the Sand Michael You've Got a Lot ..... ..... ..... ... to Answer For Midnight Sun So Long Suicide Undergoing Treatment
Their stab at a concept album. 'A' for effort . . .

	Duran Duran Pop Trash 2000 Hollywood Records			Someone Else Not Me Lava Lamp Playing with Uranium Hallucinating Elvis Starting to Remember Pop Trash Movie	Fragment Mars Meets Venus Lady Xanax The Sun Doesn't Shine Forever Kiss Goodbye Last Day On Earth Someone Else Not Me ..... ..... ..... ..... (en espanol)
Starting off with the clunker ballad 'Someone Else Not Me,' the Durannies got their behinds in gear and put out a great rocking album! So it tanked in sales, who cares? Well, obviously they did, because they canned Warren Cuccurullo (Zappa, Missing Persons) after 14 years of loyal service and re-recruited all the original members. This was done, I assume, to cash in on the wave of 80s nostalgia.

	Duran Duran Astornaut 2004 Epic Records			(Reach Up for the) Sunrise Want You More! What Happens Tomorrow Astronaut Bedroom Toys Nice	Taste the Summer Finest Hour Chains Onme of Those Days Point of No Return Still Breathing
Well, it's about time! The first album from the original Durannies since 1984! 20 years have past and it still feels like 1985! Not that that's a bad thing . . . Anyway, this record's pretty good! It rocks in all the right places and the schmaltzy ballads aren't that bad, and arnet that prevalent. Hope there's more to come from these guys.
