Duran Duran will bring their latest - and, appropriately, greatest - compilation to vinyl for the first time this summer.

1998's Greatest - a tidy summary of the Rock & Roll Hall of Famers' most commercially successful period in the '80s and '90s - will be pressed as a double album on white vinyl - featuring a newly cut master created at Abbey Road Studios - with sleek packaging including an embossed front cover (recalling the companion DVD release of the band's biggest videos) and full-color inner sleeves. The collection will also be reissued on CD in a similarly embossed digipak. It's the latest catalogue activity from the group, a year after making their '80s albums available anew on CD and vinyl (with remastering originally released in 2009 and 2010) and adding a slew of digital EPs that offered deluxe edition material, including B-sides, remixes and demos, in a new way for streaming or download. They also reissued their latest album, 2023's Danse Macabre, with extra material.

Greatest served as a crucial update to the band's bestselling 1989 collection Decade, offering every song from that album along with hits and fan favorites the group recorded in the years since that release. Every one of the band's '80s Top 10 hits in the U.S. and the U.K. is accounted for in non-chronological order ("Girls on Film," "Hungry Like the Wolf," "Is There Something I Should Know?" "The Reflex," "A View to a Kill," "Notorious," "Ordinary World" and more), along with four favorites from the '90s: the hits "Ordinary World" and "Come Undone," the 1990 fan favorite "Serious," and "Electric Barbarella," off Duran's then-newest album Medazzaland (1997). Where appropriate, all were presented in an original single mix or edit.

Perhaps someday, Greatest may get a sequel updating fans on Duran's prowess in the decades since. (The band owns all their albums from Medazzaland forward, distributing all through BMG.) Until then, the original is making its way to a new format for your listening pleasure. It'll be available June 20 in the U.K., arriving in America on October 24.
