2 out of 5 stars Goodness gracious me........2004-04-18

When these came out they werent too bad, but now they are really dated.They dont seem to have stayed the test of time, they were well recorded but will never become classics. They are good for bringing back memories thats all.I'd rather save me money and spend it on a really nice hot chicken madras with onion bhagi's for starters.Beats fish and chips anytime.

Hey,
I am all about the delicious collaborations of record execs sitting around trying to decide what to put in a collection.
The next eclectic group should comprise of old school durans-
all the b-sides, simon's solo work and other band member's forays into movie soundtracks.
I was a little unimpressed with this. What about a collection that appeals to fans who already own all the works? This is a great collection for the import purchaser only- keep it on a shelf, but wait for a better collection to play-something with the funk we all know and love.

5 out of 5 stars Duran at their best!.......2001-04-26

Three of the best-selling albums of Duran history all together in one collection! First is Seven & the Ragged Tiger, an ingenius new wave-ish album, which in addition to the hits 'The Reflex', 'New Moon on Monday', and 'Union of the Snake' includes some of their greatest tracks, namely the haunting 'Seventh Stranger' and the dark 'Of Crime and Passion'. Next is the 1986 album, Notorious, their most funk-inspired album to date. It includes the title track as well as the hit 'Skin Trade' but the real jewel of this one is the dark 'Vertigo' or the melancholy 'A Matter of Feeling'. Finally, the band's 1993 top ten album 'Duran Duran 2 (the Wedding Album)' which includes the smash hits 'Ordinary World' and 'Come Undone', but is also one of their strongest overall to date. The jewels of this one are an amazing cover of the Velvet Underground's 'Femme Fatale' and the sexy and seductive 'Love Voodoo'. A seminole collection all around!
