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!

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.

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!

This group had a lot of great songs but for some reason tend to get lost in time. I don't know why. While they didn't write any of their hits, they were superb at selecting their material and had a top notch band. Because they selected songs to do from a wide array of backgrounds, their style could change dramatically from song to song. This might also be why they tend to be kind of forgotten. What did Three Dog Night sound like? There is no definite answer, I guess.
