Album Description

The reunion of two giants of progressive rock. Quango consist of Carl Palmer (Crazy World of Arthur Brown, Atomic Rooster, ELP and Asia), John Wetton (King Crimson, Roxy Music), John Young and David Kilminster. The band was formed in 1999 after an Asia reunion fell apart, with the intention of performing Asia classics along with ELP and Wetton solo material as well as new songs. This CD consists of recordings from a handful of gigs the band played. Tracks include versions of ELP's 'Bitches Crystal' and 'Fanfare For The Common Man', Asia's 'Heat Of The Moment', 'Sole Survivor' and more. 2000 release. Standard jewel case.

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Palmer and Wetton, together again in a great live effort.......2000-10-23

If anyone was wondering where the sound that defined 80s supergroup Asia has been since 1992, this is the place. Featuring Asia co-founders John Wetton and Carl Palmer, the band also boasts keyboardist John Young (whose resume bears a stint with Asia in the late 1980s) and David Kilminster, who was tapped to join Wetton, Palmer and Geoff Downes in the aborted Asia reunion of 1999. "Live from the Hood" features several Asia efforts, as well as a few ELP classics and a cover of Bob Dylan's "All Along the Watchtower." A new work, "Last One Home," is hauntingly beautiful, and features a jazzy instrumental that demonstrates how well this band's components work together. Kilminster and Young prove themselves worthy successors to the likes of Keith Emerson and Steve Howe, and the chemistry between Palmer and Wetton makes one wonder why they don't work together more often. An intimate but powerful recording that is true to the band member's progressive roots.
