Editorial Reviews

Limited edition two CD live recording taken from Asia's outstanding set on the Prog Rock stage at 2010's High Voltage Festival in London. Asia's debut album exploded onto the music scene in March 1982 and nearly three decades later the band were back, with their original line up, performing such hits as 'Heat of the Moment' and 'Only Time Will Tell', on the first day of the newest Rock festival to hit the UK. Featuring the best of the band's live performances, this two CD live recording is presented in exclusive packaging with bespoke artwork, perfectly capturing the passion which has kept the band alive for nearly 30 years, guaranteeing the ultimate in collector's item straight from the heart of the festival itself!

2.0 out of 5 stars Well, it's Asia, and it's live, but..., November 10, 2010

...what inspired them to release this on CD? It's not a particularly good performance, particularly on "One Step Closer", in which the two vocalists sound off-key and drunk. Generally, the second singer (not Wetton) sounds bad. In addition, the total length of both CDs combined was only 63 minutes, which begs the question- why release this as a pricey 2 CD set? For Asia completists only, this one might be worth about $12 as a single CD set, so buyer beware.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money, December 16, 2010

NO ONE is a bigger Asia fan than I am. I am completely, hopelessly in love with John Wetton, and Carl Palmer is The God of Drums. But this recording is awful. As the first reviewer mentioned, there is no earthly reason why it spans 2 cds. The sound quality is terrible. Two of the cuts are not even songs.

Don't waste your money on this. INSTEAD YOU SHOULD BUY Fantasia: Live in Tokyo; Live in Moscow 1990; or Spirit of the Night: Live in Cambridge.

BETTER YET go see Asia live if they tour anywhere near you. If they don't, it's worth it to travel to see them. They are totally awesome, and I'm sorry that no one could know that from this cd.
