Sadly another great singer has passed away - Three Dog Night

Cute story about 3 Dog Night. When I was a freshman in College they had a hit song Jeremiah Was A Bullfrog. I liked it and only later did I hear the story behind it. Hoyt Axton had a gig. He played his favourites and then came up with something original. He had the melody and he had the words "Joy to the world all the boys and girls etc but didn't have any lyrics. On stage he started running words together that had no real meaning but they fit the tune. After his show was over 3 Dog Night who had been in the audience asked Hoyt if they could record his new song. He kind of stammered for a bit and explained that he was just stringing words together and couldn't remember them. 3 Dog Night said "No problem we recorded it" The rest they say is history.

Three Dog Night, one of my favorite singing groups of that era. Their harmony was always superb and they had a great song catalog. Chuck and Cory were the two main lead singers and their singing together was always awesome.

I got drunk with that dude in about 2006 in Alpine Tx in a bar. He gave me a guitar pic.

i loved that band and especially ONE...

That is two within a week. They always seem to go in three's. I wonder who will be next.
