Biography

Asia is a supergroup formed in 1981 with members of Yes, King Crimson, Emerson Lake and Palmer and Uriah Heep. The current members are Geoff Downes, John Wetton, Steve Howe and Carl Palmer, but the membership has seen many changes over the years, with celebrated musicians popping in and out of the band. Although they have not achieved the critical acclaim one would expect of their respectable rock… Read more in Amazon's Asia Store

1.0 out of 5 stars A great disappointment!, December 3, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Quadra (Audio CD)
I've been an avid Asia fan from their inception so I was very excited with the release of this live compilation. Unfortunately my excitement was short-lived...The sound is so horrendous, I literally disconnected my speakers to check for faulty wiring. With today's technology, there is no excuse for not cleaning up the noise from these performances. In addition to poor sound, some effort could have been made to edit this collection (do we really need 3 versions of "Heat of the Moment" and "Only Time Will Tell"???). Asia is a hard-working group of artists...too bad the same can't be said about the technicians. I can only hope that if a DVD is ever released of Asia in concert, someone will take the same care in recording it as the band does in giving us their music.

1.0 out of 5 stars Ouch! Can I Have My 1 Star Back?, October 1, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Quadra (Audio CD)
Being a huge Asia fan I was very excited to find this CD of live material, there is almost none available. The packaging is very nice including a booklet and the set list contained every song I would be interested in hearing - then I heard it. This has to be the worst sounding recording I have ever paid for. In many cases you can actually hear individuals clapping and making noise apparently near the recording device (?). I was at the Worcester show and I am thankfully I can remeber it in bits and pieces because even over 20 years later my memories are better than this. Save the money, get takeout with someone special, put the first three cd's in your player and enjoy - you won't feel ripped off like I do right now.

1.0 out of 5 stars Asia Quadra, What a Disaster, August 18, 2002
By 
roger eng (Garden City, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Quadra (Audio CD)
As a long time fan of the original lineup, I thought this 4 disc set was finally going to put to rest my long suffering soul that was dying for a definitive release of Classic Asia live. I cannot believe how poor these recordings are. Why can't someone release a decent soundboard of any of these shows from 82 or 83. I have cassettes from this time period which are probably as good if not better than this fiasco. If you gotta hear Asia before the breakup, well there's not much else around. (besides the other Zoom Club Records debacle "Asia, Alive in Hallowed Halls"). I certainly can't believe that Carl Palmer doesn't have anything better than this garbage lying around his collection. Then again though, this is still a lot better than anything by the current lineup. Hard to recommend for anyone besides the absolute diehard.
