SEVEN AND THE RAGGED TIGER
is the third studio album, released globally 21. November 1983. It would prove to be the last studio album for the band's original lineup until 2004's ASTRONAUT. Simon Le Bon said the album "is an adventure story about a little commando team. SEVEN is for us — the five band members and the two managers — AND THE RAGGED TIGER is success. Seven people running after success. It's ambition. That's what it's about." EMI re-released the album in 2010 in two configurations - Double LP and three disc (two CD, one DVD) box set. The three disc box set includes on the DVD the first official release of the "As The Lights go Down" video

NEW MOON ON MONDAY
is released as the band's tenth single in January 1984. The second single to be lifted from the band's 1983 album SEVEN AND THE RAGGED TIGER , the song was another success, reaching the Top 10 on both the British and American music charts. On 11 February 1984, the single reached #9 in the UK and on 17 March, it reached #10 on the Billboard Hot 100. Inexplicably, it did not chart well in Australia and Scandinavia; territories where its predecessor, UNION OF THE SNAKE, had been a big hit. This trend was reversed with the next single, THE REFLEX, which became a worldwide number one.

THE REFLEX

became the band's most successful single. It was their second single to top the UK singles chart, and would prove to be their last UK #1. It was also Duran Duran's first single to hit number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 (for two weeks) on 23 June 1984, and became a huge hit internationally. The band wanted it to be the lead single from SEVEN AND THE RAGGED TIGER, but their label didn't like the warbling singing during the "why don't you use it" segments, thinking this would hinder its success as a stand alone single track. The remixes for both the 7" and 12" singles were done by Nile Rodgers of Chic fame. It was his first work with the band, and he would later go on to produce THE WILD BOYS single as well as the album Notorious (1986) and several tracks on Astronaut (2004).

Producer Ian Little recalls the sound Nick Rhodes came up with on his keyboard: "...whenever I hear that steel-drum part it always brings a smile to my face because it's so out of tune. Steel drums always are, but it was exactly right in terms of rhythm and tone. So a wood-block sound was mixed in to make it even more percussive and, Bob's your uncle, it did the job. The single was released on 16 April 1984
