Robert Berry-3.2 Third Impression (2021)

In 2015 Keith Emerson and Robert Berry considered giving continuity to the project in which both participated in 1988 and resulted in the album "To The Power of Three" in which the drummer Carl Palmer would also participate. For some time both musicians worked on this project but unfortunately a year later Keith Emerson died just when he was almost everything ready in order to start preparations for a new album.
Two years later Robert Berry published “The Rules Have Changed”, a tribute album to the legacy of Keith Emerson and in 2021 the long-awaited project left halfway five years before finally comes to light.
For this continuation entitled “Third Impression”, Robert Berry relied on recordings that Keith Emerson himself had left on cassette tapes, on keyboard parts recorded on his own mobile phone, as well as the ideas that both had started working on in those days. moments.
This work continues to keep intact the melodic tone of the debut from years ago, with an album full of progressive and epic rock, without neglecting the characteristic AOR sound and the great keyboard work, a clear musical heritage of Keith Emerson. So from the initial "Top Of The World" where the acoustic guitars and the epic voices together with the great keyboards, capture the listener with a dramatic and grandiloquent theme. The forceful “What Side You're On”, with a clear progressive cut, gives way to the more passionate “Killer Of Hope” and “Missing Piece”. The AOR “The Devil of Liverpool”, the jazzy “Emotional Trigger”, the epic “A Fond Farewell” and the progressive and extensive “Never” end an album with a great legacy to the most genuine sound of ELP but with a more accessible than that of the legendary British band.
