[The Fly]

I REALLY like what I hear. I can't wait to get my hands on this CD!!

[STORY_TELLER]

See THIS is what I'm TALKING ABOUT!

Asia CLEARLY had a desire to put effort into this CD. Not tired sounding AT ALL. It's like a follow up album to their best material back in the 80's. Good for them.

Actually, I only just now had the chance to listen to all of them -- can't wait!

Thanks for the link Rip! Somehow I guess I overlooked this one on the home page. I just gave it a listen, and I really like some of these songs! I think there's gonna be some album fillers in there, but I really like some of them. I can't wait to get this album! Man, I'm gonna be broke as hell this year with all of these releases coming out!

I loved the first Asia album - but this sounds like old men with one eye on the $$$ and one eye on their horlicks. If they had booted Howe and got in Trevor Rabin it woulda been amazing, but it sounds like Bryan Adams new album - i.e. tired and going thru the motions.......
