Yes, hot on the heels of Roger’s departure, it is now widely rumored that Andy Taylor—he of the brilliant guitar work for D2 and the Power Station—will also be leaving the Durans.

For now, Andy says he plans on "fulfilling his lifetime ambition of running a farm” for awhile, adding that he does anticipate returning to the fold after recuperating.
