A Duran Duran album not coming out in England sounds like some sort of wacky mistake - but in 1997, it was a hard truth for one of the country's most enduring pop/rock acts. Now, 25 years later and on the eve of their Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction, that record is finally corrected with a worldwide, physical reissue of the group's misunderstood Medazzaland on October 14. The '90s found Duran in some of the most whiplash-inducing scenarios of their career. They started the decade with
