CaledonianGonzo Posted March 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 A bit apples and oranges though. Two of those would be headliners. I own records by all 3 but none by Taylor, Taylor, Taylor and the lads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stocksey Posted March 13, 2019 Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 Heres a question? who is better (or worse depending on your perspective) Duran Duran or A-Ha? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted March 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 Both are better than The Killers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted March 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 Serious answer is that I know a lot of people think pretty highly of a-Ha's post chart fame albums, but I don't think you can say the same of the Double D's.

tevaburger Posted March 13, 2019 Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 i'm going to give the Duranies a go on my turntable now....I actually have the Rio album on vinyl through an acquaintance who dumped a bag of records on me that he wanted to drop off instead of discarding.... mostly Rush records since he knew I've always been truly into them (which is a prime example of the types of bands I was really into when the Duranies were singing about Reflex and all) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzie sue Posted March 13, 2019 Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 Saw DD once and the 80s classics were great, the 90s stuff was shite though and they played a fair bit of it. Le Bon is a right idiot as well but I have a lot of time for Rhodes and loved the dandy Warhol’s album he produced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamMcMillen Posted March 13, 2019 Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 A set after Kylie on the Pyramid filled with Ordinary World, Hungry Like the Wolf, Girls on Film, Rio, The Reflex, A View to a Kill, Notorious and The Wild Boys would be a very special Glasto moment. And as Monae is on the farm anyway they can dust this one off... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoghurt on a Stick Posted March 13, 2019 Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 Nothing, but nothing, will ever top the original, but I do like this from Duran Duran, even though the sound quality is shite; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danbailey80 Posted March 14, 2019 Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 So...Just to be clear... Duran Duran are really cool and welcome on these boards. However.. Sting and Keane are intrinsically evil and should never set foot at Glastonbury? Have I got this right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted March 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 If a reformed Police were to show up in a slot similar to what Duran Duran would likely get then it wouldn't be a bad booking at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
