[@stephenstrudwick8095]

“Never Been to Spain” was written by Hoyt Axton, an American singer-songwriter, guitarist and actor. Hoyt Axton also wrote Three Dog Night’s biggest hit, “Joy to the World”, which topped the Billboard charts for six weeks in April and May 1971. Axton must of had songwriting in his genetics, because he was the son of famed songwriter Mae Boren Axton, who was famously known as the “Queen Mother of Nashville”. Mae Boren Axton’s most famous song writing credit is the wildly popular song “Heartbreak Hotel” which she wrote for a young Elvis Presley. She also had the distinction of strategically introducing an unknown Elvis Presley to Colonel Tom Parker.

I could never understand why some called them a "cover band" ? Does that make Elvis a "cover performer" he never wrote any of his songs. I guess I still feel touchy about that all these years later.

They would pick covers written by lesser known artists and make them hits - reinterpretting them. It turned them into stars and the singer-songwriters they covered.

[@angieg3098]

TDN is one of my favorite groups. I don’t consider them ‘covers.’ They completely revived songs that were mostly unknown, or not well known. They put their flavor into the songs, and they became hits. They all sing lead on different songs. Pick a song, you can’t go wrong. 😊

[@xScooterAZx]

Three Dog Night were HUGE in the late 60's and early 70's. They tended to cover contemporary songs and championed the cause of singer-songwriters on their albums, introducing them almost by default. As a result, many people's first exposure to Harry Nilsson, Paul Williams, Hoyt Axton, Randy Newman and Laura Nyro can be traced to Three Dog Night's fine work in uncovering them.

[@ginger9cookie]

Exactly! It drives me NUTS that people call these cover band now and I’m surprised at the Professor of Rock throwing that around - he’s usually a little more knowledgeable than that. And don’t EVEN get me started on calling them (and others) a boy band!!

Their name was suggested by a girlfriend after she read a magazine article about Aboriginal Australians. The article said that on cold nights the Aboriginals would sleep while curled around a dingo (a native species of wild dog). On colder nights they would sleep with two dogs and, if the night were freezing, it was a "three dog night". I highly recommend checking out "Joy to the World", "An Old Fashioned Love Song", and "Mama Told Me Not to Come".

They kept saying that Three Dog Night was a cover band was like a slap in the face, only because they didn't write the songs themselves. It's been said that Three Dog Night could cover your band at your own concert and make a hit!!!! They're amazing, my all time favorites. Beside the lead 3 vocalists, Cory Wells, Chuck negron and Danny Hutton were 4 fabulous band members. Joe schermie on bass, (kills it, btw, on Never Been To Spain) best guitarist(next to Prince) Micheal Allsup, absolute best drummer and keyboardist ever, Floyd Sneed and Jimmy Greenspoon.

“Never Been to Spain” was a # 5 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 for Three Dog Night in 1971, appearing on their album "Harmony". It was released after their top ten hit “An Old Fashioned Love Song” and before their single “Family of Man”. Prior to “Never Been to Spain”, Three Dog Night had two number one hits under their belt, “Mama Told Me (Not to Come)" in 1970 and “Joy to The World” in 1971. Their third and final number one, “Black and White”, would top the charts in 1972.

[@stephenstrudwick8095]

Three Dog Night's first number one hit, “Mama Told Me (Not to Come)” was written by Randy Newman, a multitalented American singer, songwriter, arranger, pianist, composer and conductor. Three Dog Night's cover version stayed on top of the charts for two weeks in July 1970, and has the unique distinction of being the number one song on the very first edition of Casey Kasem’s “American Top 40” on the weekend of July 40, 1970.

Three Dog Night was as big a band as there ever was; they did not write their own music they got the best songwriters in the business to give them charts. Usually those were covers but often their version is what blew up and then everyone covered it because people knew it from Three Dog. Massive vocals band as people will tell you they had multiple lead singers. Attended a concert around 1971, probably the best concert I ever saw. They gave seven encores, it was after midnight and finally said "We'd love to keep playing but the police say we have to quit so they can close the building!"

[@memorylane7068]

BP, back in the day the songwriter and publisher were paid the industry royalties, and the songwriters were listed on the album and usually also on the album cover. There was no pretense that the artist wrote any given song, as it was typically listed by each track who wrote the song. The early rappers were notorious for just using samples and never listing original writer, and also releasing the sampled song without paying anything to the original writer or publisher. Ex: Eddie Van Halen had to sue Tone Loc over using Jamie's Cryin' samples for Tone Loc's Wild Thang. Van Halen only then got $180,000, where Tone Loc made millions and became a superstar. So even after suing, the publishing owner and song writer didn't come out very well. We are now fighting this same battle with AI infringement.

[@WaymoresBlues]

The only way that a songwriters song got covered by Elvis was if they gave in to his manager, Col Parker's, demand to receive all or the majority of the publishing rights to the song. Most did because a songwriter could retire on just the royalties off an Elvis hit record. The two exceptions. One was Dolly Parton who refused to give up any rights to 'I Will Always Love You' so Elvis who wanted to didn't record it. A smart by Dolly since the Whitney Houston cover of that song made Dolly millions as well as making Dolly the biggest selling female songwriter of all time. The other was the Jerry Reed song 'Guitar Man'. During the recording of Guitar Man Elvis who really wanted to record his version of the song was unhappy with the studio guitarist and asked for Jerry Reed, also studio guitarist, to do the track. Jerry was found out fishing on a lake and came in and perfectly laid down the track. Afterward, when Reed was done Col Parker demanded that Reed give up the publishing rights or the song would not be released to which Reed replied "Okay, go ahead, you tell him that". The song became a huge hit for Elvis and Jerry Reed laughed his way all the way to the bank.

70’s icons! Couldn’t believe it when, in the summer of 1980, I caught them performing one night in a tiny dive bar in Green Bay, WI. Earlier that day I’d been to the company picnic, where I’d won the pie eating contest and drank beer to excess. At the bar, I fell off the mechanical bull several times and then loaned my car to a friend who was too sick (drunk) to stay for Three Dog Night. The next day I found my car on a highway with only two wheels on it. Good times….

There was a Stable of Songwriters in the 60s (Laura Nero, Hoyt Axton, Boyce & Hart, Carole King, etc.) who wrote songs for bands such as 3 Dog Night, 5th Dimension, Blood Sweat & Tears, the Monkees. These songs weren't covers because they were specifically written for the bands.

"Three Dog Night - Live '75 Soundstage, Chicago." Uploaded by MyyyTunes Concerts. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jmqQe5aQmrSNbdU Soundstage was an American live concert television series, and Three Dog Night was one of the groups featured in Season 2 in 1975. Their concert is packed with their hits! I love their hit version of the song "Eli's Coming", which begins at the 31 minute mark of the KZbin video (the original Lauro Nyro version is also worth a listen). I would also recommend continuing on to the song "Celebrate" (starting at the 38.38 mark). The last two songs of this concert are also very fun to watch (ie, the "The Show Must Go On" at the 42.10 mark, and their iconic hit "Joy To the World" at the 46.01 mark).

I think usually the Original songs sound better than the covers for the most part, But Three Dog Night did those covers so Great and made them into Hits, that most people never heard the originals from way back and just loved Three Dog Night, they also have a lot of fun on Stages, they're such characters and they all take turns singing different songs, and their voices are awesome together! Must hear the following - Mama Told Me - Shambala - Old Fashioned Love Song - Joy to the World - Eli's Coming - Black and White

The difference between cover bands is they get permission to do so. The person that wrote one of three biggest song's had recorded it, but it didn't go anywhere. Three dog rearranged it made it blow up. Sometime later the songwriter said to them thank you you out my kids thru collage.
