Andy Hamilton played the Saxophone in the studio recording (and on tour), but in the video, filmed in Antigua, it is bassist John Taylor miming playing the sax on top of the cliff, and keyboardist Nick Rhodes doing the same (while nearly losing his balance) on a raft in the shallow waters off Shirley Heights.

as i recall, the most successful Duran Duran Album was the 1982 release "RIO", which featured the title track, & the classic hit single "Hungry Like The Wolf".
Where was 'Rio' by Duran Duran filmed?
The video was filmed by director Russel Mulcahy (Highlander) at various places around the island of Antigua in May of 1982.The yacht scenes were filmed on the bay at English Harbour, the beach scenes at Miller's Beach and Shirley Heights.
What was the yacht called in the duran duran Rio video?
The yacht in the Duran Duran video is a 1936 Fife yacht called Eilean. Regularly confused with Simon Le Bon's former yacht Drum (which at the time was a state of the art 1984 IOR maxi yacht), Eilean is a wooden classic that has fallen into a serious state of neglect since the video was shot. She has been recently purchased by an Italian watch company and is currently undergoing a complete restoration. Eilean is expected to be relaunched in 2009.
