Rio is the sound of Duran Duran hitting their stride, all sharp hooks and a rhythm section that never stops moving, presented here as a remastered, enhanced CD.
Arriving in 1982, the band's second album turned a promising Birmingham group into international stars. Its glossy videos, shot in faraway locations, made them early heroes of the music video era, but the songs did the heavy lifting: tight, danceable and stuffed with melody, they bridged the gap between new wave cool and pure pop thrill.
The title track bursts in with John Taylor's busy, elastic bass and Simon Le Bon's breathless vocal, while Hungry Like the Wolf stalks along on a pulsing synth line and one of the decade's most recognisable choruses. Save a Prayer slows things down into shimmering, wistful territory, proof the band could do atmosphere as well as attitude.
Then there is The Chauffeur, the closing track and a fan favourite, a moody, minimal piece built on Nick Rhodes' cool synthesizers that hints at the art-school side of the band.
Rio still sounds bright and confident, a record built for loud speakers and late nights. This remastered edition gives the guitars, keyboards and Roger Taylor's crisp drumming a clean, punchy lift.
