Duran Duran “Hungry Like the Wolf (night version)” 1982. 12″ single b/w “Careless Memories” (live version from the Hammerstein Odean, ‘81). Today, October 27th, is Simon LeBon’s birthday (b. 1958) but it’s also almost Halloween. D2 does not have many songs that are scary, creepy or goth so a song with a wolf will have to not-so-neatly fit the week’s theme.

A cursory glance back through the history of this blog demonstrates my former obsession with all things Duran, most especially Simon, so I’ll leave it here with this gorgeous picture of him circa Seven and the Ragged Tiger (the photo is of a portion of a poster that accompanied the 7″ single “The Reflex”).
