Product Description
Amazon.co.jp
大ざっぱに言って、『Rio』はダサいが豪華なアルバムだ。耳障りで分散化したシンセとサイモン・ル・ボンの抑揚のないヴォーカルがフィチャーされているにもかかわらず、ぼんやりした感じのバラードである「Lonely in Your Nightmare」と「Save a Prayer」には今でも心の琴線に触れるものがある。ダンス気分にあふれたシングル曲「Rio」と「Hungry Like the Wolf」で少々気が晴れるが、これらにしても軽快とか柔軟というには程遠い音楽だ。それにしても、今回のリリースで違和感があるのは、ジョン・テイラーのベース・ラインが不自然に強調されていること。どの曲もリズム・セクションの重要な役割を受け持っているというより、ソロ活動を当て込んで演奏しているみたいに聴こえてしまうミックスとなっているのだ。しかしながら、この技術的なミスに目をつぶれば、水彩画のようなシンセ・ポップのゴージャスな実質を楽しく再発見できるだろう。（Beth Bessmer, Amazon.co.uk）
From Amazon.co.uk
For the most part, Rio is an eerie and sumptuous record. With their raspy, arpeggio synth sounds and Simon Le Bon's uninflected vocals, the misty ballads "Lonely in Your Nightmare" and "Save a Prayer" can still pull heavily on your heartstrings. With the dance-oriented singles "Rio" and "Hungry Like the Wolf", you lighten up a bit, but the songs are far from airy or whimsical. One anomaly in this release, though, is the inappropriate prominence of John Taylor's bass lines. In every song, it sounds as if he is mixed more in expectation of a solo than as an integral part of the rhythm section. Ignore this technical distraction, however, and you'll enjoy rediscovering this gorgeous body of water-coloured synthpop.--Beth Bessmer
