Singles Box 2 ‘1986 – 1995’

Release date: 13 September 2004 Europe/21 September 2004 USA

EMI are very pleased to announce the release of Duran Duran’s second Singles Box Set, on September 13, this time covering the band’s career from 1986 – 1995.

The box features all of the tracks from the original UK 7” singles plus a host of ‘bonus’ tracks taken from the 12” versions, many of which are available for the first time on CD.

The second half of Duran Duran’s career with EMI produced an incredibly strong and influential body of work, with stand-out singles which equaled the huge success of any of their earlier work, and quickly became big favorites that are still making an impact today.

Highlights on this box set include ‘Notorious’ which hit the No.7 spot in 1986 and proved to be a massive live thriller, here with it’s extended 12” mixes, a reminder of Duran Duran’s resurgent love affair with the mixing desks in today’s clubs such as Trash and Nag Nag Nag.

Also featured are the spine-tingling ‘Ordinary World’ which announced the astonishing reinvention of the band, (later to enjoy success with dance band Aurora) and ‘Come Undone’, both of which saw the band storm back into the charts with a more rounded, lush sound, coupled with extremely accomplished songwriting on the Wedding Album in 1993.

Not to be missed on this box set, is the super-sexy ‘All She Wants Is’, boasting the filthiest synth riff to dare to grace the Top Ten in 1988.

Duran Duran also turned the tables on their idols with the Thank You album in 1995, spawning two memorable singles – Grandmaster Flash’s ‘White Lines’ and Lou Reed’s ‘Perfect Day’, both of which are featured in this box set.

Like the first Singles Box Set ’81 – ‘85’ released last year, this second installment will take the form of a flip top box with CDs in individual pouchettes reflecting the original single artwork, and include a pull out poster.

With the five original members of Duran Duran back together, this last year has seen the band’s musical heritage and influence acknowledged throughout the world, with accolades such as the Lifetime Achievement Award at both the Brits and the MTV Music Awards. Their recent 17 sell-out Arena shows in the UK, also speak volumes about their status today, and the anticipation for their brand new album makes it one of the most talked about releases scheduled in the music calendar.
