JOHN WETTON Chasing The Dragon Live Store For Music SFMCD090 (2007)
Recorded live in Japan back in 1994 with half of It Bites in the line-up, namely John Beck and Bob Dalton, this is a decent enough run through Wetton's solo and Asia highlights up to that date.
Five Asia songs make the setlist with 'Heat Of The Moment' given the acoustic touch. The UK number 'Rendezvous 6:02' still sounds good all these years later and 'Crime Of Passion' is a bona fide classic from Wetton's solo output - big, memorable chorus and Asia-like in sound.
The sound quality does vary in places; particularly the vocals drown out the keys at times. An interesting snapshot of John Wetton's solo show back in the mid-90's.
