Duran Duran - Greatest


Genre
New Romantic
Synth Pop


review: An outstanding collection, containing many more hits then the one that preceded it. But also, like "Decade," what prevents "Greatest" from earning a full five stars is that insidious disease that afflicts most wanna-be great hits lineups: "songus interruptus." Nothing destroys a greatest hits compilation more than stingily edited versions of the tunes you most want to hear in full flower, like "Skin Trade." A good addition to your collection if you don't already have "Decade" (I do,) but I'd hold out for a definitive boxed set that contains the FULL versions of EVERY song, even the ones you may not be so crazy about.
