DURAN DURAN/Rio (Deluxe 2CD Edition) and Live At Hammersmith Odeon CD/DVD

Hollywood, California – July 20, 2009 – Capitol/EMI announces the September 22 U.S. release details for two new Duran Duran collections featuring several rare and previously unreleased recordings and videos.

The British pop band’s second album, 1982’s Rio, has been expanded for a deluxe 2CD ‘Special Limited Edition’ to include its original U.K. mix and several tracks remixed for the U.S. album release, as well as a second disc of demos, B-sides, and other rarities.

Rio’s new 2CD ‘Special Limited Edition’ will be housed in a deluxe, 52-page case-bound book with canvas cover finish. Released in 1982, Rio was Duran Duran’s second album. Fueled by their groundbreaking, cinematic music videos, leading man looks, and staggeringly heavy rotation on MTV and radio for the album’s singles, including the title track, “Hungry Like The Wolf,” and “Save A Prayer,” Duran Duran shot to superstardom, topping charts around the world. In the U.S., the double-Platinum album spent 129 weeks on Billboard’s Pop Albums chart. Previously unreleased and long sought-after by fans, Duran Duran’s Live At Hammersmith ’82! concert recording will also be released September 22 in CD/DVD and digital audio packages.
