Summary:
Originally broadcast on MTV as the headline act of its New Year's Eve broadcast and simulcast on FM radio for the King Biscuit Flower Hour, this lively set from the popular British New Wave rockers Duran Duran marks their first major New York City triumph.
The group, which was spearheaded by vocalist Simon LeBon, had ruled the MTV charts since the end of the previous year, but they did not take off on radio as rapidly. For this show, Duran Duran was not only performing to a packed house at New York's Palladium Theater, they were playing to millions of viewers all over the world. The stakes were high, and Duran Duran went for the gold. Shortly after this performance, in early 1983, "Rio" was in the U.S. Top 10.
All the essential early hits are featured here - including "Rio," "Save A Prayer," "Hungry Like The Wolf," and "Girls On Film." The show is interrupted to count down the New Year on MTV, but otherwise it remains a consistently upbeat show. The group augmented its original five-piece lineup with the addition of saxophonist/keyboard player Andy Hamilton.
This performance showcases the band when they were on the brink of worldwide stardom, if they weren't already there. The success of Duran Duran during this time period gave them enough momentum to get through most of the eighties as a successful act. It would also serve as the base of hits to keep the band poised for more than one reunion in the years that followed.

I play Bass Guitar because of the great John Taylor!

[@roymartin500]

They should've just made Andy Hamilton a full member of the band as his playing is a huge part of their sound, especially on the Rio songs. On other songs without sax or piano he plays percussion so to me it's a no brainer.

[@belmac7102]

have been a big Duran fan since 1980.... had the whole d.d. style blonde fringe, modern romantic clothing loved every minute of it! !! have been to many concerts my first being Glasgow apollo October 1982, I was so excited at the age of 14 eventually getting to see my idols in flesh!!! The concert was so fantastic! !!!!! since then been to many! but I will always remember the first , like your first love!!! I was a devoted Roger Taylor fan...... but I really do miss Andy. He was the least recognised in the band, videos and interviews. .... D. D. may bring in as many guitarist as they want but it's not the same without Andy Taylor. ..great guitar player!!!! Andy you are missed !!!!
