Description
This is an AUTHENTIC HAND SIGNED ORIGINAL VINTAGE Complete 12"x 12" Album Flat of 3 main members in the English rock supergroup "ASIA - THEN & NOW" featuring the autographs by Geoff Downes, Carl Palmer, & John Wetton. Then & Now is a compilation album by British rock band Asia, released on 14 August 1990 by Geffen Records. It consists of two parts titled as Then & Now. The first part is five songs from previously released albums, while the second part includes four new songs & "Voice of America", which was inexplicably added to Now. Asia are an English rock band formed in London in 1981. The most commercially successful line-up was its original, which was a supergroup of four members of different progressive rock bands of the 1970s: lead vocalist & bassist John Wetton of King Crimson & U.K., guitarist Steve Howe of Yes, keyboardist Geoff Downes of Yes & the Buggles, & drummer Carl Palmer of Emerson, Lake & Palmer. Their debut album, Asia, released in 1982, remains their best selling album & went to number one in several countries. The lead single from the album, "Heat of the Moment", remains their top charting & best-known song, reaching the top 40 in over a dozen markets & peaking in the U.S. at #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 & #1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart. The band underwent multiple line-up changes before the original four members reunited in 2006. As a result, a band called Asia Featuring John Payne exists as a continuation of John Payne's career as Asia's frontman from 1991 until Wetton's return in 2006. in 2013, the original line-up was broken once again when Howe retired from the band & was replaced by guitarist Sam Coulson. After a few years of inactivity, Billy Sherwood (of Yes, World Trade & Circa:) replaced an ailing Wetton (who passed on shortly thereafter) in Asia for a summer 2017 tour with Journey. Following the end of the tour, the band went on hiatus again, re-emerging in 2019 with Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal replacing both Sherwood on vocals & Coulson on guitar.
