    Cory Welles was a great singer. What made this band unique and great was 3 great lead singers sharing duties. Many great songs
    Joy to the World, Easy to be Hard, Elis Coming Shambala and more. Very successful from late 60s into early 70s Cory did a terrific cover of Otis Reddings Try a little Tenderness, phenomenal!

    Three Dog Night!!! A deep rabbit hole of hits. I didn't see them in concert until about 1988 when they doing fairs were admission was free once you were on the fair grounds. A friend and I took my 5 year daughter. When they played "Out In the Country" (AKA Before the breathing air is gone and the sun is just a bright spot in the night time.) everybody got their lighters out. Now it is the light from cell phones.

  • @mikemiller3069

    When it was cold outside, people would have a dog sleep at the foot of their bed to keep their feet warm. If it was colder, still, they might have 2 dogs, so a 3 Dog Night is a very, very cold night. That's what the band's name relates to.

    One of my GOATS in the 70's growing up with this awesome group and having met them in person they signed my "Captured Live at the Fourm" LP individually on their own pics (see the cover) and I saw them in concert so many times I lost count. Loved them and miss them dearly. Thanks for the awesome memories of the decade of my youth! So many hits their funniest yet probably most honest hit songs was "Joy to the World" which rode the #1 Billboard spot for 6-weeks! Cheers!

'Joy to the World', with it's unique vocal intro, was all over the radio when I was a senior in high school. In fact, you couldn't get away from it. They brought much Joy to the world.
