Duran Duran (Remastered)\n\nUK LP Edition Originally Released 1981\nUS LP Edition (Different cover + tracks) Originally Released Spring 1983\nCD Edition Released 1987 ??\nRemastered CD Edition Released July 3, 2001\n\nAMG EXPERT REVIEW: Duran Duran's eponymous debut artfully coalesced the sonic and stylistic elements of the burgeoning new romantic movement they were soon to spearhead: pumping synths, glossy production, and seemingly impossible haircuts. Ultra-smart singles like "Girls on Film" and "Planet Earth" became instant smash hits both in the U.K. and America, and other fine pop gems such as "Anyone Out There" and "Careless Memories" rounded out the album's stellar first side. Side two was a far more experimental and revealing affair, with primary songwriter Nick Rhodes leading the band through atmospheric mood-pieces like "Night Boat," "Sound of Thunder," and the instrumental "Tel Aviv," all of which are particularly reminiscent of mid-era Roxy Music (clearly one of Duran's biggest influences). The band's groundbreaking music videos would do the rest, securing them a unique standing as forerunners of the first MTV generation and cementing their status as one of the decade's most successful pop music icons. [The band's first U.K. number one, the non-album single "Is there Something I Should Know?" was also later added to the CD version of Duran Duran.] -- Ed Rivadavia\n\nAMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW\nGET IT RIGHT!, October 10, 2003\nReviewer: "ddaveyh" (St Louis, Missouri United States)\nTo everyone out there who thinks this TRULY Duran's first album, you'd be wrong. This is the re-release of the first album that came out after RIO when IS THERE SOMETHING I SHOULD KNOW was released. Check the listing for the DURAN DURAN (Original recording remastered) - THAT'S the first album. \nThe re-released dropped the track TO THE SHORE, edited PLANET EARTH, which was originally a remix version, and rearanged the track listing adding IS THERE SOMETHING I SHOULD KNOW. \nFor those of you who desire to have the omitted track and the added one, get Duran Duran+1 which contains all the original tracks and it puts TO THE SHORE back where it belongs. I am really disappointed in the so-called Duran Fans out there who have the mistake in touting this as the first album. \nDie hard Durans such as myself, will want all three as they each slightly different.\n\n\nAMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW\nStunning Debut, February 10, 2003\nReviewer: Ryan Brenner (Texas, United States)\nFirst let's get a few things straight. The original UK release featured tracks Girls On Film/Planet Ea
