This is a complete recording of the second Tokyo performance from ASIA's 2010 Japan tour, held in support of their latest album, "OMEGA," captured in ultra-high-quality audience recording.

This was their third visit to Japan since their 2006 reunion with the four original members. The performance was a very "ASIA-esque" and intense stage show, skillfully blending new songs from the highly acclaimed "OMEGA" with their classic hits. In particular, "Go," from their 3rd album "ASTRA," placed as the first song of the encore, is arguably the highlight of the tour, especially for the opportunity to enjoy the masterful guitar playing of Steve Howe.

Following the opening performance the previous day, this second Tokyo show, held at the same venue, featured the same setlist as the previous day. However, the venue's acoustics, particularly in the low-frequency range, had been improved. As evidenced by the band's exhilarating performance led by Carl Palmer, a highly energetic and fulfilling stage unfolded.

Regarding sound quality, this performance utilized the original master recording, captured from a prime seat in the front center of the first floor of the venue. The result is a superb sound that captures the band's live sound with an almost unparalleled realism. With its overwhelming sound pressure and high-quality sound that captures the entire frequency range from low to high, it is a truly luxurious and exceptional product.
