This week on Teenage Kicks, we pay tribute to Duran Duran, whose bassist, John Taylor, turns 60 on Saturday. JT co-founded the Fab Five, and he also put together the supergroup the Power Station with Robert Palmer and Chic's Tony Thompson. Taylor is a dual citizen mostly living in Los Angeles, but who also owns a 15th-century manor in England, and he was one of the first musicians diagnosed with coronavirus back in April (He's since recovered.)
