An interview with and an article about Duran Duran (The band plays on, The Times Magazine, November 3 2007 and Wild boys always shine, The Sunday Times Culture, November 4 2007), referring to Andy Taylor's departure from the band, said respectively that he had failed to turn up for a recording session in New York and had "quit" the band, and that he had sent a "blunt message … that he was leaving the band, with immediate effect". It was also suggested that his departure was "still unexplained". Andy Taylor's departure from the band is the subject of continuing legal proceedings, but we wish to make clear that it was not unexplained, that he did not quit, leave or walk out on the band - the Duran Duran partnership was dissolved by the other members. He was unable to get a US working visa to attend the New York recording session due to administrative failures by the band's management. We apologise and are happy to correct the record.
