Short intro

Archiva is a two-volume collection of out-takes and previously unreleased tracks by British progressive rock band Asia. The volume one, designated as Archiva 1, was released on 3 September 1996 by Resurgence. In late 1995, Asia had completed work on their sixth studio album, Arena. On 1 January 1996, when the group returned from the holidays to their recording studio, Electric Palace, in London, they found that a water pipe had burst and had destroyed hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of equipment. Archiva 2: track 13 taken from the Little Rich Boy CD single release, track 14 taken from the Turn It Around promotional CD single. Digitally Remastered by Peter van't Riet at FineTune. More than a compilation, this range of recordings demanded extra care for richness and consistency. Originally released in 1996 as a two-disc series, 2005 saw the Archiva set repackaged with new bonus mixes and an acoustic performance of Open Your Eyes. A wild two-disc assortment of unreleased material intended for other releases, Archiva is definitely something for the die-hard fan looking to complete his collection. The track sequencing and style isn't wildly erratic and could possibly make for a proper album with a bit of fine tweaking. Listen free to Asia Archiva 1 & 2.

Great songs like the romantic 'Moon Under The Water' or the energetic 'Boys From Diamond City' represent the fantastic talents of their creator. Double-CD set for the price of a regular CD. It doesn't sound as polished as some of thier other single album works, and if one of the band members happens to see this review then let me know your opinions But I don't mean to put the stuff down because I know alot of work went into it. I don't mean to put anyone down because being a musician is not easy

Asia's Archiva 1 & 2 albums feature otherwise unreleased tracks from the John Payne era. If you're looking for rare Wetton/Downes collaborations, you won't find them here. I happen to think Asia released some of their best material with Payne on board, so this collection was a must-have for me.

The songs range in quality from fair to excellent. Some of them are quite excellent, and are as good as you'd expect to find on a regular Asia studio album. Others are clearly B-side material (though still pretty decent). There are only a couple of songs that you hear and think "I can see how that one got cut from an album". Overall, this is a very nice collection of songs that should please die-hard Asia fans.

Both Archiva albums were released separately, though never in a format worthy of the material. The 2005 Special Edition release by InsideOut collects both Archiva albums in a slipcase and includes bonus tracks (mostly edits, remixes and alternate versions of existing Asia songs) - all for the price of a single disc. What more could you ask for?
