Reviews"The Durannies take new-romantic pop to the masses with lush, synth-driven choruses and lavish videos...", Ranked #13 in Cmj's "Top 20 Most-Played Albums of 1982"., "RIO isn't just front-loaded with some of the era's most bulldozing hits, it's still Duran's best shot at an artistic legacy.", Ranked #98 in Q's "100 Greatest British Albums" - "...Defined early '80s aspirational glamour, comprising 9 trashily addictive tunes...", "It’s the band’s greatest achievement....The subtle aesthetic shift from New Romanticism to synthpop -- coupled with the band’s video success on MTV -- made them a smash and helped usher in the Second British Invasion.", Ranked #1 in Cmj's "Top 20 Most-Played Albums of 1982"., 5 Stars Out of 5 -- "1982's Rio Was and Remains One of the 80s' Finest Pop Statements...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Originally released in 1982, today both the Chic-inspired basslines and aspirational lyrics of RIO seem utterly contemporary...", "The Taylors, drummer Roger and guitarist Andy, laid down an aggressively grooving foundation over which vocalist Simon LeBon and keyboardist Nick Rhodes dropped candy-coated bits of melody and insouciant jet-set attitude.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "Duran Duran gave some thought to their 12" singles...and -- the biggest achievement of all -- laying down mixes which don't sound embarrassing two decades later."
