Burning Bright

Burning Bright is an unofficial Duran Duran 17-track 2-CD live album, recorded in 1984.

About the album
The album is a recording of Duran Duran's performance at Madison Square Garden in New York, NY (USA) on 19 March 1984, during The Sing Blue Silver Tour. This was the second of four shows performed by the band in the state of New York on the tour, held at a 20,000 capacity venue located in the New York City borough of Manhattan and located at 8th Avenue, between 31st and 33rd Streets.

The evening began with opening act Prince Charles & The City Beat Band, who had previously performed at the British MENCAP Concert that featured Duran Duran in July 1983.

Taking to the stage at Madison Square Garden for the very first time, Duran Duran opened the show with "Is There Something I Should Know?", as giant black stage curtains slid apart. Then the band played their first US Hit Single "Hungry Like The Wolf", almost one year after it peaked at no.3 on 26 March 1983.

On tour in support of their fourth studio album, ''Seven and the Ragged Tiger, "The Reflex" was the first of six songs taken from the album during the evening. The show finished with "Girls on Film", featuring band introductions.

Tickets for the event cost from around $16.00.

Duran Duran continued the tour two days later, playing the Madison Square Garden show on 21 March. The bootleg artwork includes photography by Francesco Scavullo.
