Rio by Duran Duran
Feb 20 2026

All tracks to me sound almost the same. This is not a bad thing. Every track has good flow from one to the other with breaks in the intensity about half way and emphasizing a driving bass line throughout. The big spiritual bug people caught in the late 60's to early 70's was almost fully evaporated by this time, and LSD/weed gave way to diet pills and cocaine. The country side hippy swing giving way to big city light and money money money. This is the kind of song you put on for the party and let it play while no one really knows what track is on and no one really cares. The album begins with Rio who is, I assume, also the face of the cover. If Rio is as swank as she is described then I'd say she earned the front spot. Save a prayer though? And a perfect closer. One abrasive enough to remind you to quickly find a new cassette before the song curses the rest of the night. Seriously, what is this Dracula's castle bullshit? I give it 2 8 balls and a day looking for your lost wallet, now picked clean.
