The album released in the 2000s is being reissued on CD and analog LP as a double vinyl set. Formed in 1978 in Birmingham, England, the band sparked the New Romantic movement in the 1980s and became one of the leading bands of that movement. The band's good looks and the compelling stylishness of its members, all of whom were art school graduates, won them a large following not only in their native England but also in Japan, where the MTV boom of the time was gaining momentum.The band's name is based on the villain "Dr. Durand-Durand" in the 1968 science fiction film "Barbarella" starring Jane Fonda. The first album, "Duran Duran," reached No. 3 on the U.K. album chart. Subsequent singles such as "Gravure no Bijoujo" and "Hungry Like the Wolf" became hits, and in 1982, their second album "Rio" was released. In 1983, they released their third album, "Seven & The Racked Tiger" (#1 in the U.K. and #8 in the U.S.), and in 1984, the single "The Reflex" became the first single to reach #1 on the U.S. singles chart (it also reached #1 in the U.K.). In 1985, the band members' side projects such as Power Station and Arcadia became popular, and the single "007: Beautiful Prey" reached No. 1 on the U.S. Singles Chart.
