I used to love Duran Duran so much!
I’ve got this in vinyl version! (And I had their posters all over my walls and ceilings – especially Roger Taylor – always did like a drummer 😃)
So many Duran Duran fans. You are a fan and collector.You know Viola, it’s all about keeping their good music alive and the precious memories that comes with it. AOC is enjoying the journey with you! Many thanks for your comment!!
When I’ve time I shall study my collection and it will be your fault that I’m not doing proper work 🤣🤣
NO fault here– hint: I am sure you can get your collection appraised. You obviously have yourself some great memorabilias.LOL!!
Tee hee … that’s what happens when you’re old and you don’t have clear outs of the house!!
Not viola. Sounds like an inheritance. And a big job for family.
One thing for sure … Old or need of clear outs, you have a notable collection.
When I locate it, through the masses, I’ll blog about it 👌🏼🌸
That’s beautiful Viola!❤
.. if you provide the coffee ..
I will work on that!
The whole album is a masterpiece!
Indeed and with many stand-alone classics.
