The famous recording of the 1982 North American tour that captured the original Asia immediately after its debut revives on the press board for the first time in about 20 years after the best remastering in 2020 !! The power of the master original sound recorded on the metal tape explodes. The definitive edition is finally here !!

“HOT OFF THE HEADS PRODUCTION” is a hot topic in the unofficial sound source world in 2020. All of the released sound sources have remarkable high-quality sound sources, but it was big news for fans that the shining treasure sound source remained in the original Asia. "HOFFMAN ESTATES 1982 (Amity 608)" was released on the Amity label as a breaking news last week, but many fans will be surprised and delighted by the sound quality that has been updated for the first time in about 20 years.

... yes, it's been about 20 years since then. From his own experience, the performance they performed on June 17, 1982 in Hoffman Estates, Philadelphia, has been on the list since 1987, when tape trade was still being exchanged by letters and parcels. It was a recording that has been known for a long time among tapers along with the Philadelphia performance on June 22nd because of its content and good sound quality. Philadelphia on the 22nd became famous from early on with the appearance of the unofficial LP "ONLY TIME WILL TELL" from here around 1984, but this Hoffman Estates sound source will be seen by fans a lot. It was around 1999, 15 years after that, I had to wait for "MIDNIGHT SUN (AL003 / 4)" to appear on the ACQUA LIGHT label. However, although I finally saw the sun, this ACQUA LIGHT board had some problems such as sound cracking, tape deterioration, and a fatal mistake in the track division of disc 1. fact. For that reason, although the performance of 1982 with good sound quality caught the hearts of sound source fans, the title recording this day will not be released after that, and only this ACQUA LIGHT board has such poorness. It was the only title to listen to the performance on June 17th.
