    Asias debut album exploded onto the music scene in March 1982 with several Top 10 singles and sales exceeding 7 million copies. This supergroup, featuring bassist/vocalist John Wetton, drummer Carl Palmer, keyboardist Geoff Downes, and guitarist Steve Howe, was the logical successor to their collective bands of the 70s Yes, ELP, King Crimson, and ...

    Fortunately for the band, a new music media outlet called MTV premiered on cable channels in 1981 throughout the US and in over 50 million households. (Downes hit song with The Buggles Video Killed The Radio Star was the first song ever played on the exciting new channel). Asia, aware the networks impact on the industry, began shooting videos as so...

    Asia became one of the most played acts on MTV in 1982. Since most people were intrigued with the new concept, viewership often reached several hours a day. Youre looking at a parallel success here, says Wetton. MTV and Asia were successful at the same time of course, MTV was instrumental in Asias success, but then, Asia was also instrumental in MT...

    Throughout most of 82, Asia ruled the radio airwaves and MTV; sold out every date on its tour; and the LP, Asia, crushed all the competition at record stores around the world. The music industry had been in a major slump that year, and less than 15% of releases in 1982 made a profit. Asia was one of the years big exceptions. By the time the band re...

    The success, however, was too much, too soon. By the time they assembled to begin their second album in the winter of 1983, cracks had already begun to appear in the foundation. Creative tensions and egos not to mention the pressure of having to top the best selling album of the previous year made the second albums recording sessions far less enj...

    The second album, Alpha, did ship platinum and contained the hits Dont Cry and The Smile Has Left Your Eyes, but Geffens hands-on pressure to score undeniable radio pop hits was starting to show. We had a precious success, remembers Wetton. We came in at the top, but it was an illusion to think wed stay there. The band was still finding its feet as...

    Palmer regrouped in 1987 with Keith Emerson and unknown bassist named Robert Berry to form 3. Wetton started a musical project with his Roxy Music band mate, Phil Manzanera, and Downes did a myriad of projects including working with both Mike Oldfield and Greg Lake, as well as producing Steve Howes new band, GTR. He also released an experimental in...

    Palmer had a successful run again with ELP until the fall of 1998, when that band, too, went on hiatus. With John Wetton in-between solo projects and Downes willing to entertain offers for a reunion, suddenly all three men were available again to regroup as Asia. Due to his commitments with the re-formed Yes, Steve Howe was unavailable. However, th...

    This is the REAL ASIA, says guitarist Steve Howe. There have been other versions of the band, but this original line-up is the one that the public truly embraced. Since we only toured for a couple of years, it will be nice, finally, to play for audiences all over the world, many of whom never had a chance to see the group in concert. An American to...

    Geoff described the enthusiasm within the band for the new project: Its great finally to give some new music to those Asia fans who have remained with us patiently all these years. Steve emphasised the bands ability to focus and called the new album an enormous test, a challenge worthy of our intent. All the distractions usually evident vapourised,...

    Fans and critics world-wide welcomed the new release enthusiastically, and the band hit the road once again through 2008 and 2009 touring in the UK, North America, Japan and Europe. Touring for Phoenix culminated in the summer of 2009 with a number of European festivals and a tour with Yes, featuring Steve Howe performing onstage with both bands. A...

    With the touring cycle for Phoenix behind them, Asia returned once again to the recording studio for a follow-up album, Omega, this time joined in the studio by producer Mike Paxman (Status Quo, Uriah Heep). Immediately upon its release they launched their 2010-2011 Omega world tour beginning with dates in Europe and Russia, before heading off to J...
