Long before the single was available in the U.S. (actually in the summer of '82) I heard "Hungry Like the Wolf" on Kiss-108 (WXKS) in Boston. I liked it more then than now.

I never bought a Duran Duran album, so I don't know what they've done besides their pop hits, but my favorites are "Is There Something I Should Know", "The Reflex" and "Rio". -- Those who know me have no need for my name.
