This awesome double-sided tee reps the English pop band, Duran Duran, and it highlights their 1984 single "The Wild Boys". The song was featured on their platinum selling live album, Area, and it was the only studio track to appear on the release. "The Wild Boys" became one of the band's highest charting singles, peaking at number two in both the US and UK. The inspiration for the song came from Russell Mulcahy, who also directed the music video. Mulcahy had dreams of making a feature film based on the William S. Burroughs novel, The Wild Boys: A Book of the Dead, and he envisioned the band creating a modern soundtrack for the film. While a full movie was never made, the band till took Mulcahy's inspiration and produced a hit song out of it.

This shirt was made right around the peak of Duran Duran's commercial success, when the band had achieved a level of fame comparable to Beatlemania. The group was at the forefront of the Second British Invasion, and their followup single to "The Wild Boys" wound up being the hit theme from the James Bond film A View to a Kill.

Fits like a modern unisex adult small. There is a small hole on the back, see pics.
