John Wetton AnthologyJohn Wetton has made his rounds in several successful bands as well as doing a bunch of solo work along the way. In his illustrious time, he has played with King Crimson, Wishbone Ash, UK, Asia, Uriah Heep, Family, and several others. For one man, that is an impressive list of bands to have played with. Especially impressive is that he was sought after as much as he was even to complete a solid line-up.

But, as stated before, John Wetton enjoyed a fan-base that loved his solo works, of which he produced six of them. His first was Caught In the Crossfire (1980), and his last was Raised In Captivity (2011).

On March 17 (via US Amazon), March 9 (UK), Cherry Red Records will release Volume One of a 2CD Anthology title covering music from his six solo efforts during his musical career. This comprises 32 tracks, many with important luminaries like Robert Fripp, Steve Hackett, Martin Barre, Simon Kirke, Steve Lukather, and more, all chipping in to help.

Anthology: Studio Recordings will also contain a booklet with new liner notes illuminating many of the tracks, and shining light on his extensive career.

One thought on “2CD Anthology (Volume 1) To Be Released For John Wetton In March”
  1. John Wetton is one of my favorite singers. Other than his Asia albums, the only things I have of his solo stuff are the Battle Lines studio album and the Chasing The Dragon live album.
