I love the first three albums (yes, even Astra). Not that big a fan of the Payne period though.

ASIA (featuring the original lineup of Wetton, Howe, Downes & Palmer) release their 30th anniversary album "XXX" tomorrow. I'm really looking forward to this one, the debut single "Face On The Bridge" sounds exactly like I expected; expertly crafted melodic rock played by top shelf musicians. Wetton still has the most amazing voice.
That song brought back memories of playing their debut album endlessly in 1982. Good show, guys!

That sounds amazing. His voice hasn't changed at all over the years. Always been a fan of their earlier stuff (Asia,Alpha & Astra ) and this one sounds like it will fit right in with those.
