The Asia Tour

One of the finest debuts in rock history - there is no denying the epic grandeur of the music!
Asia's debut spend 9 weeks at #1 on the U.S. album chart. "Heat Of the Moment", "Sole Survivor", and "Only Time Will Tell" were huge Top 40 hits. Asia would go on to receive a Grammy nomination as Best New Artist of the Year and Billboard named Asia Album of the Year…

"Asia - Anthology" is a collection of Asia's greatest hits. While all of the music is the same as all other Asia albums (due to being a greatest collection), the combination of all the greatest hits is what is new and fresh. The ability to listen to all of the great Asia songs, like "Only Time Will Tell" and "Heat of the Moment" on one CD makes this production a true pleasure to add to any soft rock music lovers collection…

It's not easy being Asia, when you've the millstone of those early albums potentially sinking anything new. Whatever the band do these days will almost inevitably pale by comparison to those first three great records from the 1980s.
So, what do the quartet do? They ignore the past, pretend they're new to all of this and go their own way. The result is surprisingly impressive, a smoothly melodic ride that feels like a birth, or a rebirth…
