Seven and the Ragged Tiger

CAPITOL, 1983

Duran Duran faced enormous pressure to follow up the massively successful Rio album and hit singles like the title song and “Hungry Like the Wolf” and the title song. Released in the year of ‘Duranmania,’ Seven and the Ragged Tiger didn’t disappoint commercially and became another smash for the Fab Five. The album generated three hit singles in “Union of the Snake,” “New Moon on Monday” and “The Reflex,” whose subsequent remix by Chic’s Nile Rodgers became Duran’s first U.S. number one.
