This is the third since their revival, and they seemed to think that \u201cFantasia\u201d was too polished and \u201cSpirit of the Night\u201d a festival document. This one is said to be the band resonating an in your face \u201cOmega\u201d night in Central Europe. Let\u00b4s see if this one does them justice. <\/p>\n<p>The track list is quite in favor of \u201cOmega\u201d, with highlights such as the classic ASIA tinged \u201cHoly War\u201d and the keyboard heavy \u201cEnd of the World\u201d. But I still think that the most tender moment of latter years is \u201cAn Extraordinary Life\u201d, with its reality-based theme. There is a solo opportunity for Carl Palmer in \u201cThe Heat Goes On\u201d, two instrumental spots for Steve Howe, \u201cAll\u00b4s a Chord\u201d and \u201cThe Valley of Rocks\u201d and a sort of solo fire at will for everyone in \u201cSole Survivor\u201d. The obligatory major hits are here too, of cause, could you imagine ASIA leaving the stage without doing \u201cOnly Time Will Tell\u201d or \u201cHeat of the Moment\u201d? The latter two are the real gems of the show, closely followed by the quite haunting cancer story of John Wetton \u201cAn Extraordinary Life\u201d. Will this one outshine the previous two live albums? Maybe, that is up to you dear buyer.<\/p>\n<p>Track List<br \/>\nI Believe<br \/>\nOnly Time Will Tell<br \/>\nHoly War<br \/>\nNever Again<br \/>\nThrough My Veins<br \/>\nDon\u00b4t Cry<br \/>\nAll\u00b4s a Chord<br \/>\nThe Valley of Rocks<br \/>\nThe Smile Has Left Your Eyes<br \/>\nOpen Your Eyes<br \/>\nCD2<br \/>\nFinger on the Trigger<br \/>\nTime Again<br \/>\nAn Extraordinary Life<br \/>\nEnd of the World<br \/>\nThe Heat Goes On<br \/>\nSole Survivor<br \/>\nGo<br \/>\nHeat of the Moment<\/p>\n<p>www.frontiers.it www.myspace.com\/originalasia <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Frontiers\/BAM Reunited veterans ASIA, with all original members on board when this album was released, are somewhat productive with live albums.
