Rio
by Duran Duran
special for its titular track? Breakneck speeds in the percussion, bassline and synthesizers. totally 80s but in a classic way. Favorites: "Rio", "Hungry like the Wolf", "Lonely in Your Nightime" Didn't love love "New Religion" or. "Last Chance on the Stairway" or "Save a Prayer" sort of became the same sound after a bit — certainly glad it didn't carry on too long. Frontloaded with the biggest hits of the 80s is this the only good Duran Duran album? Solid slap bass in "my own way" persistent Groove throughout that fails to quit or quiet
