Editorial Reviews
Recorded at the MEN Arena in Manchester on December 16th 2011, this stunning Duran Duran live show is the perfect combination of great music, amazing visuals and iconic style which has been the band s trademark throughout their career. Following the release of their acclaimed All You Need Is Now album, this concert combines new songs from that release with their classic hits. Whether in the studio or the live arena, Duran Duran are masters of their craft and this latest concert bursts with energy and oozes class in the way that only they can. /
Line-up: Simon Le Bon (vocals), John Taylor (bass), Roger Taylor (drums), Nick Rhodes (keyboards)
With: Dom Brown (guitars), Anna Ross (backing vocals), Simon Willescroft (saxophone) and Dawne Adams (percussion)

I was really impressed with this tough performance. Simon LeBon's voice has really developed into a boombastic force and the players are tighter than ever. Compares favorably to their 1984 live "epic" ARENA, more imminent than nostalgic. Mark Ronson lit a fire under my childhood heroes' asses while earning his place in rock history. RESPECT

As a KISS fan and a die hard headbanger from the 80s, I have a few bands that I listen to that do not fit my "stereotype". THIS is one of them. Receiving this as a gift was intended as a joke. Joke is on the giver.
As for the songs, I had no problems with the quality of the recording, I felt the channels were separated well. I was able to pick out every part. Simon has managed to keep his voice in amazing condition and the band swept through their hits with seamless precision. I felt their CHOICE of songs was the biggest suspect here. I really did not need "View to a Kill" or "Notorious". "Save a Prayer" is a sinful omission. However, that is simply one fan's preference.

Good live record. Some songs sound better than others, but in general I can say that you can feel the energy flowing from the stage to the audience and vice-versa. It gets better as it approaches to the end.
I'm not sure if I like the Wild Boys/Reflex medley; it's not bad, but I loooove orginal Wild Boys so much that I would have prefered to listen to the original song. Nice View to a Kill play, less electronic and more guitar.
Sound is live; I guess they will have made some arrangements, but it sounds like a gig. Not like the previous arena, that sounded great, but more like an studio record.
Wrapping up, if you a DD fun, you'll enjoy this record.

I love DD but where is the bass?
It captures the live Duran Duran experience nicely, but the bass is not there. In the early albums, JT's bass is a lead instrument. Read more

Duran Duran - Only the best group ever.
What more is there to say - Duran Duran is the best group ever and definitely an awesome live band - they actually perform their music live which is a rarity in today's music.

If you can't make it to the concert this is a great option
I love this concert. My only complaint is that the DVD features Safe and the CD does not. Why? Other than that the sound is good and of course, its Duran Duran, so it is all good. Read more
