Duran Duran – Duran Duran

I would also like to purchase a copy. Thx a lot.

Very nice quality, mine was sealed and 8 dollars at Miyagi Records in Chicago. An absolute steal to hear Ordinary World in all its Dolby glory

I’m also looking for a copy if anyone is selling please?

Anyone selling a copy? Wouldn't mind grabbing one to have on vinyl than play absurd amounts

Anyone know how this pressing sounds? If it was mastered from a previous vinyl mix or converted from the CD?

It is inexplicable why this album has not been reissued on vinyl, the prices are crazy, I will settle for listening to it via streaming until a reissue comes out with a more reasonable price.

Bought it when released. Surprised to see how much it’s worth!

Sound is good, vinyl weighs in at exactly 110g, clean and with low but not inaudible noise floor. Jacket is lightweight card stock but pretty stanard for 90s vinyl. Compression is evident like all the major label commercial vinyl releases of this era, but it hasn’t been crushed to death - there’s plenty of life in vocals and high end overall, and very solid bass, especially on the pumping tracks where it counts. The engineers who mastered and cut this clearly knew what they were doing and walked a fine line making the necessary trade offs where they had to. Anyone who heard this in real time will appreciate a clear “FM radio” vibe and will have no problem cranking this up for an enjoyable listen (and maybe even a dance…). Still, as other reviews have commented on other versions of this LP, wouldn’t we all love to hear a properly done 2024+ style reissue of this 90s masterpiece. (Yes, it’s a masterpiece boys and girls… records don’t get this expensive if they’re just average…. Even if they are rare :-) And if the OG vinyl prices have you down, and you’re on the fence, just get yourself a copy of the CD for now and wait until you stumble upon a reasonably priced copy in the wild, save enough to throw cash a nice copy on the discogs menu , or until we get that elusive reissue…)

I don’t own this version, I have the Greek EMI Athens press single disc version which I am reasonably happy with (I feel similarly to DrDod about that vinyl version) as well as the Japanese extended CD. My question is- was the 2 LP Brazilian version cut louder or with more bass (wider grooves?). Has anyone compared? That would be quite interesting….
