EDIT: Those who'd like to read the press release, which also has a neat note on the packaging of the reissues, can do so here.

ORIGINAL POST: Duranies like me can breathe a sigh of relief: following the news that an April 13 release date has been confirmed for the deluxe reissue of Duran side-project Arcadia's lone album So Red the Rose (1985), our friends at Slicing Up Eyeballs have confirmed that EMI will release the other planned deluxe sets for Duran Duran (1981) and Seven and the Ragged Tiger (1983) on March 30. 

If you are a fan of the band, do invest in these sets. If the previous reissues - last year's double-disc version of Rio (1982) and the live CD/DVD Hammersmith '82! - are any indication, these will be something to beat. Hit the jump for full track lists for the DD sets, including vinyl pressings and digital download extras.Duran Duran - Duran Duran: Special Edition
