Tell me what can I do? I sit here wondering if the things you say are true
But, oh, so many times, I believed in something that just melted into lies

Tell me why you don't show
When I look into your eyes the both of us should know
But I, I just don't know, am I right in holding on or should I just let go?
But, oh, is it just a dream, or is it so, oh, you're pretending not to see

Saw them in May of 1988. Got there a few hours early and their tour bus pulled up and first off the
bus was my "Rock God", Keith Emerson ! Got his autograph and it is my most prized possession ! Was devastated when I heard of his death ! RIP "Fingers" and thanks for all the magnificent music !!!

Very happy that Robert Berry is still cranking out "3" music (as 3.2) in 2021! It's so hard to forget how hateful social media monsters depressed Keith Emerson so deeply. Try to stay positive in how you interact with other people...words are power.

It was a wild time...! The day after the Big Earthquake in the Bay Area!! I was lucky to see Keith Emerson & The Robert Berry Band play at the Bodega Club in Campbell CA.. Oct. 18, 1989.. then the next night was Emerson Berry & Palmer at another club in San Jose. I showed up at the Bodega at 7pm and met Keith. We shared many drinks and he signed an album cover for me..! We partied at the Los Gatos Inn that weekend..All night.!! Great Memories.!1

@MrGTO-ze7vb

Keith... RIP..Very SAD news.!! Thank you for all of the FANTASTIC music. ELP...I will never forget partying with you at the Bodega in Campbell California in 1989. Those Robert Berry Band days were sooooooo much fun. Glad I got to motorcycle with you in the Santa Cruz mountains!!

"3" was my very 1st ever rock concert. I was 15... May 1988 / Tampa, Florida.The music of /ASIA\ and soon ELP changed my life. When I heard that Keith Emerson died last night, a small part of me died. His artistry and musicianship meant the WORLD to me. '3" was a small but important chapter for ME, in my teenaged 80s discovery of the great 70s progressive rock bands. What a loss today... just gutted. So sad. #RIPKeithEmerson

This song was a fantastic one for me. As a keyboard player and worshiper of Keith Emerson, this iteration was an overlooked version of the power trio, and this song was a good one from that singular album---"...to the Power of 3"

At the Bodega Club, The Robert Berry Band started to play around 9:30. After a few minutes, we heard this wild keyboard playing., but there was no one at the keyboards.?? A spot light blasted at the front door and in comes Keith Emerson playing a portable keyboard on a shoulder strap. He was WHAALINNN AWAY. He made it thru the crowd and took a stance behind all the keyboards..A Purely AWESOME show..!

This is much more pop than anything I would expect to hear from Emerson or Palmer. That must have been Robert Berry's influence. And guess what ... I love it!

@GorditoCrunch343

I think too many people judged it as an ELP work back then, which hurt any chance of it being successful. Judged as a side pop project, it holds up very well to me.

@errolcuthbert1649

It's too bad that Keith reacted to the fan criticism ... that it was too-poppy and the dancers in the video ... didn't him and Carl want an Asia-like success?
John Wetton told all the prog-supporters that this is not Yes, King Crimson, UK, or ELP ... these are four minute, lyric-driven tunes. Take it or leave it.

@optimus163

Agree with the other replies here . When they first released this album I listened to it objectively and knew that it wasnt gonna be a regurge of the old yet Iconic music. That music has long since earned its place in the halls of great music and musicians. Power of 3 is what happens when you combine several high end musicians who have seen everything and just want to have fun writing their versions of pop music. GTR almost made it happen but there was too much friction between Howe and Hackett sadly, and that pushy manager/agent Brian Lane is an ass anyways. The compositions are really quite interesting : the chord progressions, the breaks, the hooks that Keith throws in are simply infectious and you will find yourself humming these tracks on any given day.

@B3Rock - I was at that show too. I think the late Mark Samansky introduced them. Sitting at the stage, with my feet under the stage, about 10 feet from Emo. When they came out and started playing Hoedown, after about 30 seconds they blew all the circuit breakers in the place. Took about 20 minutes for them to figure out what they could turn on and what had to stay off. So, they only had white lighting, and almost no air conditioning. But it was a great show. Have some great pictures.

I was Keith's roadie that evening. During soundcheck we (crew) realised there wasn't enough power coming into the building to run, PA, lights and the club's gaming machines. As soon as the house lights went down, the owner, sensing a chance to make some cash, switched the gaming machines back on and hey presto, what do you know? The main breaker 200 yards up the street tripped. Finding it is what caused the delay. As the power went off, Keith came to the back of the rig screaming "Do something." I replied with mag light shining on my face, "I am, I'm laughing."

Once he knew there was nothing to do but wait, he was serene and found the whole thing mildly amusing. Poor old Karl nearly died of dehydration that night. No AC and sitting beneath the white light nearly did for him. In spite of the low-budget nature of the tour it was a wonderful experience, especially Karl's 40th Birthday in Los Gatos. But that's a story for another time.

Saw 3 at a club called Sundance in Bay Shore, Long Island, NY on the 1988 tour. Fantastic. They also played The Ritz NYC on that tour a few nights before or after. Also met Carl Palmer for the first time on a drum clinic tour he did right around this time, at Robby's Music in Nyack, NY. 2 years later, Carl played my drums live on WBAB radio when I was working there. Asia came by to promote their Then and Now compilation album and played a few songs live on the air. Great memories.

@KaGoMusic Robert Berry does an absolutely awesome job of singing Karn Evil 9 on the ELP tribute CD. But when it came to the live performances of 3 Emerson and Palmer chose to do only instrumental songs from ELP albums.

@tanglimara100

16y↑1

Actually, Palmer toured with Emerson and Lake during the 1970's before helping to for Asia in the early 1980's. He is great and still remains one of my most favorite drummers. Thanx for enjoying the video.

1985. Yamaha DX1, DX5, Emulator III. Boy, did Emerson do some shopping, those keyboards were were like close to $10K apiece.

@392Firepower

6y↑1

He had a Moog Modular and a GX1---120K and 60K+ each when they came out, so...

@Kohntarkosz

More likely Yamaha gave them to him for free. That's how a lot of those guys ended up with things like Fairlights, Synclaviers, DX-1's or whatever, because the companies knew that Emerson or Tony Banks or Chick Corea using their keyboards was basically free publicity.

@benharyo

This is actually not bad at all, as long as we don't compare it with earlier ELP works. When judged as a pop-rock song from the 1980s, this is actually an enjoyable performance. Thank you for posting.

Let's not forget all the other boards Keith accumulated. How bout that famous GX1 at over fifty-grand! not to mention his monster Moog. Thanks for listing these boards BTW...I was trying to figure out what he was playing but the scenes flashed by too fast not to mention the poor quality of the video. I'm glad it was posted anyway.

@Kohntarkosz

4y↑2

Remember, though the "monster Moog" started life as a slightly modified I-C Moog, which was the smallest modular synth they actually made. It was essentially a patchable version of a Minimoog with a few extra bells and whistles. Keith's also had the preset box, which allowed him to set presets and recall them instantly onstage (this became something like 8 years before patch memory became commonplace on most synths), then of the course of the first few ELP tours, he built it up into the instrument that we remember him using from 74 onwards.

@tanglimara100

16y↑4

Eventhough I am a fan of all ELP albums, I actually spend more time listening to EBP and ELPowell than I do any of the others. I did, however, see ELP during the Black Moon tour. The only album I found to be a little weak was the last one, In the Hot Seat. There are actually a couple EBP songs that were intended for a 2nd album on Berry's Pilgrimage to a Point.

@tanglimara100

13y↑2

@tanglimara100 Berry does an awesome job of singing Karn Evil 9 on the ELP tribute CD. But he did not sing any of Lake's songs on the tour because Emerson and Palmer chose to use instrumental songs from ELP albums.

Wow! I never knew there was a video for this song! I know a lot of snobs hate this type of thing, but I thought this was a great song. Not every song can be a 20 minute epic in 21/8 time combining musical themes stolen from Vaughan Williams, Bartok and Janacek with lyrics about evil super computers or whatever. But what's the deal with those three chicks in the background?! Are they supposed to be back up singers or what?

@PuckRocker43

@SMASHStudioFilms Used to see the Robert Berry Band playing the club circuit in the South Bay in the late 80's. Ah, twas good stuff. Ran into him @ a restaurant outside of downtown SJ in 2001. Cheers, mate

@Kohntarkosz

14y

It is. The Barbarian is based on a solo piano piece by Bela Bartok called Allegro Barbaro. But when the album was first released, Bartok's name wasn't mentioned in the credits as it should have been. One way or another, Bartok's widow found out, and got in touch with the band and made it known they weren't going to get away with it.

Robert Berry: what a good choice !👍

@marty3888

This is sort of like Asia with keith Emerson at the keyboards. I agree with Kohntarkosz - Not every song has to be a 20 minute epic. It must have felt good to lay back and just play.

@tanglimara100

This song was written in the GTR sessions. Since Robert Berry replaced Steve Hackett in GTR, he brought this song to the 3 band after the other broke up.

@gaae2000

This song came out in 1988, how come there is no a better HD definition?

@optimus163

The problem is people like to compare. They like to see if it stands up to their favorite era of music when these guys were pushing envelopes beyond the beyond. But at some point one has to change up. Power of 3 is interesting because its blending Pop hit style writing with truly creative music composition. You cant listen to it expecting King Crimson ELP style segments, Though there are quite a few pieces of eight from Keith and if your listening closely you will hear shades of 'Pirates' and 'Learning how to Fly' in Talkin Bout , Lover to Lover as well as Desde la Vida.

@Padarack1

13y↑1

@eventide55 Uhh Robert Berry wasn't a 'replacement' for anybody in ELP. This was a NEW BAND ... That was the idea; it wasn't promoted as ELP with one new member (the 'B') ... like ELPowell was, very much ... promoted essentially as Phase 2, of the original group from the 70s. Secondly, Robert Berry is a very good singer

@brucebrown73

Wow never heard this grouping. Mesmerized by EL&P in general. This is interesting

@jeanlucchapelon

@scottfbradley

Wow - had this album but didn't know there was a video. Kinda strange to see Emerson sharing the stage with a a trip of female backup singers. Not sure why those guys were so obsessed with these attempts at pop stardom when they 1) could never achieve it 2) had no business trying. Still love ELP!

@xXPyrophorusXx

Quite a departure, even from Asia

@KesslerWest

13y

So sorry all ~ Mr. Berry wrote this song while entertaining his fans with his Robert Berry Band in the 1980's ... I know, I was there and this song is Awesome!!! 3 did change it up a bit for Emerson ~ but I prefer the original <3

@deepsussex

15y

I love this allbum and it was a refreshing change for me . Robert Berry is a great vocalist and made it interesting to see Emerson in this light . In prog you get slammed for whatever you do so I give them credit for being different. Lake's voice was shot by then anyway. Too many Marboro reds during Carl's solos .

@manueldeabreu1980

This isn't a bad album but I never gave it a lot of spins back in the day. I do find it funny that Keith Emerson went for Asia's throat and then he went out and did Emerson, Lake and Powell and 3. Both were similar to Asia as they were radio friendly/commercial style music, a pop-Prog.

This and Emerson, Lake and Powell are better than Love Beach. I will say Emerson, Lake and Powell is an underrated album. Cozy Powell played with everyone and did a great job with Ozzy. He tells a story that at the end of the tour that Keith and Greg were at each other's throats. This is probably why two years later, with Asia defunct, Keith and Carl got together with Robert Berry.

I am trying to remember what other band Robert Berry was considered for. I thought it was GTR or Yes but can't remember. He was kind of like Trevor Rabin as they kept trying to find a vehicle for his talent. The oddest thing and happily fell apart is Rabin not being the 5th member of Asia. The demo for Only Time Will Tell has shown up and though interesting his voice does NOT work with that song.

@Kohntarkosz

Not's not the cameraman's fault. That's the fault of the director, who instructed the editor to cut to a new shot every two seconds.

Oh, that was you? Yes, I was walking along one day minding my own business when all of a sudden this cassette tape bops me in the head. So picked it up, looked it at and said, "Mmmmmmm. Three To The Power Of Three. Cool!!" But seriously I bought this one from the same Strawberries (or was in Coconuts?) bargain rack that the bought the Wetton/ Manzanera cassette. I like this song a lot as well as "Runaway." The "Eight Miles High" cover is kind of unnecessary though.

@392Firepower

"Eight Miles High" was a fantastic cover, dude.

@petebraidis4655

6y↑1

Not a very good album, but a few good songs including this one which just missed the Top 10 at Album Rock Radio in 1988. I remember seeing the video on MTV at the same time as my friend Doug who called me at that moment and we were both watching the scantily-clad backing singers! I always thought Robert Berry sounded like Triumph drummer Gil Moore vocally.

@Kohntarkosz

14y

Do you understand the concept of hyperbole? That's what I was using when I made my previous post. Fact of the matter is, the band DID steal stuff from Williams, Bartok, and Janacek. When the first album came out, the Bartok and Janacek pieces that The Barbarian and The Knife Edge were based on were not credited. In fact, Bartok's widow had to threaten to sue the band to get that straightened out. And Touch And Go makes heavy use of a Vaughan Williams melody, but that wasn't credited either.

@eternalcolonel

15y

...I got absolutely no problem with this or what they're doing/did with "3". I first saw ELP on their first national tour-so I've been with them from the start. For that matter, I've been into Emerson since The Nice. I like this tune a Hell of a lot better that those brain-dead Greg Lake ballads like "Lucky Man" or "From the Beginning"...

@GrindlayPro1

15y↑1

You can date this almost to the month by Emo's board sounds, or failing that, by the hair styles. Do you think they were getting pissed off by their fan base being 98% male and used this as an excuse to get some chicks in fishnet stockings into the "picture" if u know what I'm saying. Even Emo's signature chord progressions don't save this woeful effort.

Never saw this before, and I'm not surprised. I did, however, see endless copies of the cassette and CD copies of their album in the bargain-bins for the next ten years, and the record-stores lierally couldn't give the thing away. Berry sounds way too much like Trevor Rabin for my liking, and the whole thing smacks of wanting to be bigger than Asia and being seen on MTV.

@patricklauer4452

Shades Below personally I think he’s sounds a bit better then Rabin but that’s just your opinion of course 😉

@azmarkus

15y

There's nothing worse than seeing musicians purposely step outside their comfort zone for the sake of broadening their commercial appeal. It often winds up in tatters, and this is no exception. I imagine Palmer told Emerson that following his payday and experiences with Asia that they could pull it off as well. Berry's lyrics are so cliche'd, I don't see how Palmer and Emerson put up with it. I would rank this just slightly below ELP's 1994 On The Toilet Seat (but just slightly).

@smartlamppost

14y

@Kohntarkosz (sigh) why can't people accept that THIS is just ELP with a different singer, instead of A) mentioning how bad this is compared to everything else B) insulting ELP just to try and earn this song SOME respect, I mean, really? Is it that common for people to say "this song sucks because it is not a 29 1/2 minute spectacle"!? Also, karn evil 9 didn't steal from whoever you mentioned, idium

Bad!, Bad!, Bad!....I saw them in concert when they toured. The only thing that was worth my money, was Keith and Palmer's solos. Even the ELP's songs sounded awful. One of my worst concert experiences ever.

Get rid of the Berry. This group is to good for a replacement like this. I knew this guy when he was in Hush is San Jose and I was not impressed then or now. Bye Bob, nice knowing you. Nothing personal. You were always a nice guy.

Perhaps, the very worst album ever made by the greatest and most influential keyboardist in rock's history .

Great song, but the rest of the album was weak. Classic case of ' incomplete album' and quality artists should know better not to release an album until it's finished.
