Available on single vinyl and CD, the releases include remastered audio via Warner Music, with all of the artwork having been closely restored to the original sleeve designs from the 1980s.
Spanning Duran Duran’s complete studio output from the 1980s, the run includes all of the group’s LPs with original guitarist Andy Taylor, and documents his departure alongside drummer Roger Taylor and the arrival of their replacements, Warren Cuccurullo and Sterling Campbell.
Classic hits Planet Earth, Hungry Like The Wolf, Girls On Film, The Reflex and the chart-topping Is There Something I Should Know? are all featured.
Duran Duran will return to the stage with a headline performance at Latitude Festival in Suffolk on July 28, on the back of their sellout UK and US 2023 arena tours and 2022 UK Top 5 album, ‘Danse Macabre’.
