Duran Duran's Rio, Limited Edition to Celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the Classic Album (33 1/3) - Hardcover
Synopsis
This limited printing, hardcover 40th anniversary edition includes:
-an exclusive new interview with lead singer Simon Le Bon
-a Rio timeline
-a newly designed book cover by Rio album sleeve designer, Malcolm Garrett
-vintage Duran Duran photos and ads
-and much more...
In the '80s, the Birmingham, England, band Duran Duran became closely associated with new wave, an idiosyncratic genre that dominated the decade's music and culture. No album represented this rip-it-up-and-start-again movement better than the act's breakthrough 1982 LP, Rio. A cohesive album with a retro-futuristic sound―influences include danceable disco, tangy funk, swaggering glam, and Roxy Music's art-rock―the full-length sold millions and spawned smashes such as "Hungry Like the Wolf" and the title track.
However, Rio wasn't a success everywhere at first; in fact, the LP had to be buffed-up with remixes and reissued before it found an audience in America. The album was further buoyed by colorful music videos and a cutting-edge visual aesthetic, both of which established the 2022 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees as leaders of an MTV-driven second British Invasion. Via extensive new and exclusive interviews with band members and other figures who helped Rio succeed, this book explores how and why Rio became a landmark pop-rock album, and examines how the LP was both a musical inspiration―and a reflection of a musical, cultural, and technology zeitgeist.
