{"product_id":"live_in_london","title":"Live In London","description":"\u003cp\u003eAsia’s Live In London is a 2026 concert album capturing the band’s new lineup performing their classic 1982 debut in full, plus bonus tracks, at the intimate Trading Boundaries venue in Sussex in April 2025. The show features founding keyboardist Geoff Downes alongside Virgil Donati (drums), John Mitchell (guitar), and Harry Whitley (bass, vocals), who take on the roles originally associated with John Wetton, Steve Howe, and Carl Palmer. Across roughly an hour, they play “Heat Of The Moment,” “Only Time Will Tell,” “Sole Survivor,” “One Step Closer,” “Time Again,” “Wildest Dreams,” “Without You,” “Cutting It Fine,” and “Here Comes The Feeling,” followed by “Ride Easy,” “Video Killed The Radio Star,” and “The Heat Goes On” as bonus material (with “Daylight” added as a video‑only extra on the DVD).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCritics highlight how faithfully the new lineup recreates the sleek, melody‑first sound of the original Asia album while injecting fresh energy rather than treating it as a museum piece. Whitley’s vocals are frequently singled out as a strong, respectful echo of Wetton’s tone, and Mitchell’s guitar work and Donati’s drumming give a slightly tougher edge to the arrangements without sacrificing the polished, accessible AOR and light prog character that made tracks like “Heat Of The Moment,” “Only Time Will Tell,” and “Sole Survivor” hits in the first place. The result is a vibrant document of a “new‑look” Asia that uses a full‑album performance as both homage to their origins and a statement of intent for this rejuvenated incarnation of the band.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Record Store","offers":[{"title":"Blu-ray \/ Album","offer_id":53284987175226,"sku":"37562","price":30.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD \/ 2CD - CD + DVD","offer_id":53284987207994,"sku":"37563","price":25.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/2041\/0682\/files\/Screenshot_2026-04-07_at_12.48.49_PM_e150e9ab-de87-430c-85a7-49b983d6e160.jpeg?v=1779311377","url":"https:\/\/recordstore.ca\/products\/live_in_london","provider":"Record Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
