Yes, but does it have Heat Of The Moment? LOL

Seriously, you have to love the fact that Wetton still loves to do prog despite his bout with commercialitis. Big smile
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Good to see this. I wonder how much coaxing he had to do for Fripp to allow him to use the KC songs.

From the Wetton's official web site :

April 21, 2009---We want to make fans aware of an unauthorized John Wetton box set scheduled for release in late May. The release in question features three
CDs (Agenda/Amorata/Amata) from Metal Mind Productions. The package is NOT authorized by John nor John's management, and action is being taken to
prevent the release. As always, if you hear of a John Wetton product that is not mentioned on this site, it is wise to avoid it.

...and from Metal Mind:

-------------------

We have recently learned that John Wetton’s management issued a statement on the forthcoming box “Agenda/Amorata/Amata”, claiming it is unauthorized by the Artist and therefore asking that fans avoid this title.
 
As an answer to this statement, we would like to say that Metal Mind Productions has full rights to release this box. Those rights were clearly stated in a contract signed by Metal Mind Productions and John Wetton during his concerts which were recorded in Poland back in 2003. We feel very uncomfortable about John Wetton’s new management being unaware of this agreement. As this clearly is a misunderstanding, the planned release date of “Agenda/Amorata/Amata” box remains unchanged.
