Asia
Group
Asia is an English rock supergroup that was formed in London in 1981. The most commercially successful lineup was the original one, which consisted of four members from different progressive rock bands that had enjoyed great success in the 1970s: lead singer and bassist John Wetton (King Crimson, Uriah Heep and U.K.), guitarist Steve Howe (Yes), keyboardist Geoff Downes (Yes and the Buggles), and drummer Carl Palmer (Emerson, Lake & Palmer). Their self-titled debut album, released in 1982, remains their most commercially successful album and reached the top position in many countries.
