Beats from Bizarro World: Duran Duran + Grand Master Flash = White Lines?
over 2 years ago

...I mean seriously, Duran Duran teamed up with Grand Masters Flash and Melle Mel to do a cover version of the hip hop classic "White Lines" which I think was one ot the first 'just say nope' type rap tunes (and no, the VH-1 behind the musak irony isn't lost on me but you gotta give 'em an "A" for effort)...by 1995 a Duran Duran set of covers of the tunes that influenced them seemed to arrive a...

My name is Jade. I am a Duranie.
over 2 years ago

So at 6:30 this morning I dragged my ass up out of bed, fed the Bell (my nickname for the gato of the casa) and stumbled back to bed, laptop in hand, to stream Star 98.7 - a LA station offering "today's music alternative." What does this mean? It means Avril. Nickelback. John Mayer (I've been told that he is a "hottie" when flipping by the station while in the car when they should have been...

JJ Jackson, one of the original MTV VJs (RIP, Triple J) used to refer to Duran Duran as Double Duran, so that's what I'll call them here.Double Durans's first album went virtually unnoticed in the US, until after "Rio" hit it big, and the label reissued the album with the single "Is There Something I Should Know" on it. I was lucky enough to be in a record store in 1981 when they were playing t...

Raised on MTV, part 1
over 2 years ago

This is the first of a series of music videos upon which I was raised in my youth, in the early days of MTV. I will update this from time to time, as the mood strikes me.The year: 1982, if I recall correctly. My mom had talked a friend into hooking us up with cable TV, so MTV was a new and exciting thing. This video takes me back to when there were so few videos that MTV was really forced to re...

BANG!.... your dead.

Facebook hates Mafia Wars...History is not kind to people who copy what was once an original thought....However imitation is the greatest form of flattery...Could an original idea be brought back, could it be as good as the first time, is it all too big now for it to work? Would they say it was simply a time and place thing, and it could never be repeated?I feel sad that I missed this, and will...

Burning The Ground - Duran Duran
5 months ago

Burning the Ground reminds me of my older brother Rene. Every Friday he'd pick me up after school, we'd cash our paychecks and go vinyl shopping. Burning the Ground was one of his favorite records. We loved the Barbarella samples in the beginning of the song. This rare mega mix was released December 1989, the year I graduated from high school. Has it been that long?
