Live at Budokan

by: Asia

Release Date
Yes, that IS INDEED Greg Lake on vocals! (If the gossip was correct at the time, John Wetton was suffering from "musical differences with the band.") This is the only recording I know of with Lake as Asia's vocalist, as Wetton returned almost immediately. Lake was the perfect choice to replace Wetton, blending right in with old bandmate Palmer, as well as with Downes & Howe, and the performance throughout is top-notch. It's a must for Lake fans, Asia fans, or anyone who just wants to know what people were screamin' mad for in the earliest days of MTV.

ADVISORY: This review is not suitable for ASIA purist or ASIA fans who really dislike John Payne's era.

Ok, here we go...To analize this album, you have to consider something very important. Since the beginning of the Payne's era..this ASIA line up has experienced some evolution leap phases.

I only wich I could have been at Carnegie Hall that night! Come on, Bernadette Peters, Liza Minnelli, Karen Ziemba, James Naughton, and so much more!
