Caught in the Crossfire is the debut solo album by the English rock musician John Wetton, released in 1980 by E.G. Records. Featuring guitarist Martin Barre (of Jethro Tull), drummer Simon Kirke (of Bad Company), as well as saxophonist Malcolm Duncan (of Average White Band), whom Wetton had played with in Mogul Thrash. The album's release took place during a transitional period in Wetton’s career, after he had left U.K. but before he joined Wishbone Ash and then formed Asia.
Caught in the Crossfire has been reissued numerous times with various album covers. The artwork of the original UK vinyl edition was designed by Hipgnosis art studio. In the U.S., the album was first released in early 1986 by Jem Records.[2]
