About this episode
Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Duran Duran set their minds to take over the world with their music, and smartly leveraged their image (and MTV) to international success. The boys talk about killer bass playing, sequencers out of time with the band, and well crafted interlocking song arrangements.
