Summary

"Anthology" is a compilation by Asia highlighting the John Payne era up to 1997. Re-recordings of John Wetton-era material were prompted by a lawsuit filed by Wetton when the original versions were licenced for use on the initial release in Japan. New versions were allowed, as well as a cover of the GTR track, "The Hunter".
