when supergroups and self-important progressive rockers reigned supreme.
Featuring members of such seminal art rock bands as King Crimson (John
Wetton), Emerson, Lake & Palmer (Carl Palmer), and Yes (Steve Howe),
as well as Geoff Downes from the Buggles, Asia did feature stretches of
indulgent instrumentals on their records. However, they also could be
surprisingly poppy, and that is what brought them to the top of the
charts with their debut album, Asia, and its hit single, "Heat of the
Moment."
Alpha, their second album, also had a couple of hits ("Don't Cry" and
"The Smile Has Left Your Eyes") but its follow-up, Astra, was a flop.
The group disbanded in 1985, only to reunite in 1990 without John
Wetton; John Payne took his place. After churning out a couple of new
songs for a greatest-hits collection, the band hit the road, including
two sold-out dates in front of 20,000 fans in Moscow, of all places.
Thereafter, they toured sporadically and released Aqua (1992), Aria
(1994), Arena (1996), Aura (2001), and Silent Nation (2004). The band's
lineup reverted to its original form featuring Wetton, Palmer, Howe and
Downes for Phoenix (2008) and Omega (2010). In 2012, the original Asia
lineup returned with the studio album XXX featuring the single "Face on
the Bridge."
