Greg Lake did say he made mistakes about his post ELP career. Glad he came to terms with that. I liked him with Asia and agree with Carl that he should have joined. Thanks for posting this. Love to hear Carl.🥁

7:20 That's false; Asia *did* transpose songs down for Lake. As I recall, in just the first three songs, one is as written, one is down a half step, and one is down a whole step. That's why Steve Howe is using a different guitar for each one. This would have landed really hard on Downes.
CP interview Asia in Asia
Thom, when was this interview conducted? Says it was posted 6 months ago but that’s not always the actual event date. Thanks!
It was to promote the re-release of “Asia in Asia” on vinyl. I didn’t port over the audio to UA-cam until six months ago.
12:48 - Wetton was never a fantastic technician? Huh? He’s famous in his playing for being an absolute technical powerhouse in the early to mid 70s. His work with KC, particularly live, was absolutely extraordinary. Carl got it wrong there.
I'm in Carl's camp! I can't stand vinyl. Never could. It's garbage.
In 60s-80s we abused our vinyl albums because we had nothing else. Then came CDs. People dumped their vinyls in droves to make room for small CDs. We loved it! But I kept my old vinyl albums and carted those suckers from one part of the country to another and it became a burden. 425 vinyls I couldn’t play any more anyway. All went to a young man, 25 yrs my junior who was so excited and honored to have these old ratty albums… inc ELP and Asia. I cried so many tears that day because my record collection was my youth and it moved on to the next generation. I was pleased between the tears.
I love Carl but someone needs to tell him how to pronounce "timbre".
He does pronounce it correctly. "TIM-ber" is an acceptable pronunciation.
