 Rating:  - Paula Abdule Likes It!I like Asia, I really do. I'm not so sure I am satisfied with this album from some of the "giants" playing on this CD. I loved their first recording and I heard a lot of positive talk about this their second album "Alpha". I ordered a used copy on Amazon for less than a dollar and I am still wandering if I got a deal. I coulsdn't tell if that is Carl Palmer or my cousin on drums and where in the world was Steve Howe (on the telephone?)Most of the songs, while ok, sound as if they were stamped from the same mold and don't offer up much variety. I would rather reccomend their first album "Asia" or the latest release "Phoenix". Back to you Paula. - Ciao Rating: - One song missingAs a follow-up release to ASIA's self-titled best-selling album, "Alpha" does a relatively good job of holding its own.

Rating: - it's difficult to keep up after a stunning debutLuis Mejia (son) - Asia marked an era of melodical new style of arena rock with their debut self-titled album, being the first supergroup of the 80's, but after the success of the debut, they tryed to keep up with the fame but just couldn't get along with this album. Alpha is a very nice album to hear, having great mellodies and beautiful escapist sounds that should be enjoyable for any fan or casual listeners, showing their habilities and experience of past bands, but the album retains a great lack of originality and complexity, they seemed to be blinded by their mainstream success and got lazy on this album; not a total failure, still. The music composition and the lyrics are a lot inferior, some lyrics even seem to be incoherent ...
