Three Dog Night is a great rock band from the 60's-70's. This band had a lot of energy. They had 3 guys with great voices that could all sing lead vocals. They had great songs such as "One" (written by Harry Nilsson), "An Old Fashioned Love Song", "Eli's Coming", "Shambala", "Joy To The World", "Liar", "Try A Little Tenderness", "Never Been To Spain", "Easy To Be Hard", "The Show Must Go On" etc.
Saw them in concert in the 70s ! I saw just about every concert in those days ! Every Saturday at Rich Stadium there were 3 bands....a 6 hr day of "party"
Yes, and drummer Floyd Sneed is criminally underrated. As a drummer myself, it pains me to see a guy like Charlie Watts getting more props than Sneed. (Of course, Neil Peart, Ringo Starr, John Bonham, Bill Ward, Danny Seraphine and the rest are great, but so are Floyd Sneed, Phil Ehart, Steve Upton, Garry Peterson, etc.) Great video, Jamel.
@@michaelasay8587 Joe Schermie (bass) & Jimmy Greenspoon (organ/keys) are deceased. The others (Floyd Snead/drums and Michael Allsup/guitar are alive).
These guys were all over the radio in the early 70s. They had a lot of songs make the Top 40. This one was written by Randy Newman and originally recorded by The Animals.
Back in the early days of CDs record companies were scrambling to release older stock on the new tech. Doing "greatest hits" CDs was an easy, cheap and profitable way to use up back catalog. The problem was that most artists didn't have enough hits to fill up the 20 songs the CDs could handle. As a result, a lot of the CDs had to use inferior songs to fill them up. However, the TDN CD was filled with Top 40 hits from beginning to end. Every single one of the songs on the CD was a monster. Still one of the best values in music.
Like Ken, I had no idea this was written by RN. He also an awesome talent that doesn't get enough recognition because so many of his songs are performed by others.
Of all your reactions, I think my favorites are the ones where you realize you know the song, but are now just discovering the group or singer. The look of surprise and then happiness is the best. Keep sharing good music!😉
Played this song for my eldest son when he was 13, told him to remember the words. He's 31 now, and I'm happy to say, he never forgot them, and never caused me a bit of grief.😊
Written by Randy Newman. He's an acclimated singer songwriter. His most known performance is probably with Lyle Lovett doing You've Got a Friend in Me from the Toy Story soundtrack. You might also know his hits Short People and I Love LA.
i have loved 3 dog night since i was a kid. Look up joy to the world by them . Its one of those songs you A. can NOT help but dance to and B will never get out of your head.
I was 8 years old when Joy to the World was on the radio. It came on in the car and I made my dad leave it on. My parents asked me to sing it for them. (I knew most of the words.) so my dad learned to play it on his guitar and it became my song in our family sing a longs. Lol😂
I got to see Three Dog Night live twice and both times they put on incredible shows. Imagine a band with three lead singers, singers who didn't play any instruments, just sing! They covered many songs and always put their own spin on them. Great reaction Jamel!
Yeah this is a great one ... all over the radio back in the day. We had the best music everywhere all the time! And yes, it appears Three Dog Night are still active and on tour in 2023. Marvelous!
My parents had the eight track tape. Loved lying on my back next to the stereo speaker with the music turned up! Loved all the songs on that eight track! “The child is black … the child is white … together they learn to read and write” was one of the lyrics in one of their songs
Cory Wells was the lead singer here and this song was written by Randy Newman originally for Eric Burdon. A little history here: In 67/68 there was a club called the 5th Estate in Scottsdale Arizona and us high school kids would go there because they had a fantastic house band called The Mile Ends that became well known as the opening acts for The Turtles, the Music Machine, and the Doors. While there we often saw The Cory Wells Blues Band perform before he became part of Three Dog Night. Around the same time, there was a club about a block away called JD's who had as their main house artist some guy named Waylon Jennings. What time to be alive.
My brother was a drummer for a local band and Three Dog Night, Chicago, Santana, Dobbie Brothers was the music I grew up with and I can say for myself so many memories just singing to there songs.
This was my first concert in 1975 , they were so awesome to see , I still have the ticket from that night , oh and it was only 7.00 a ticket back then , all their music is fantastic ...❤
Three Dog Night hit it big about a year or two before Grand Funk Railroad came along, but both their careers were during the same time period, and both were wildly popular! Loved this reaction, Jamel! Thanks! ✌💙✌
I saw them in the 90's at The California Mid-State Fair in Paso Robles. Free show! One of my mom's favorite bands, she was SO jealous of me! She lived here in Georgia, by that time, I was still in Paso then. I grew up listening to them, because of her, and live them too. It was an AWESOME show!! SO many great songs by them!
MICHAEL ALLSUP is an absolutely KILLER guitar player. Saw them live a number of years ago, and he is a commanding presence onstage. Just brilliant in his approach to his orchestrated parts!! Very, very few can compare to him in the world of rock guitar.
Three Dog Night is still performing. The first album I ever owned was their "It Ain't Easy" album (1970). I love seeing them in concert. I've seen them many times. One of my (and my daughter's) favorite photos is of me and my then 5 year old daughter dancing to "Celebrate" at Universal City in Orlando, Fl in 1999...
When I saw them in the 80s, Chuck Negron wasn't with them, just Corey Wells and Danny Hutton. Corey (lead singer in this video) has since passed away. I'm sure you've heard their biggest hit "Joy to the World" ("Jeremiah was a bullfrog..."). They did the definitive cover of Nilsson's "One", and a few of my other favorites are "Old-Fashioned Love Song" and "Never Been to Spain".
The brother on the drums is Flloyd Sneed from my home city Calgary. His sister was married to Tommy Chong (of Cheech and Chong) and Flloyd played in Tommy's band for a time. Three Dog Night is one of my favorite bands ever 😁
My favorite group ever! So many great songs that I can honestly say I can remember every lyric. I sometimes laugh at how easy it is to remember those words. Lol they are stuck in my brain forever 😉 great group of singers!
Now you're bringing out some music again this is old video of you I remember always telling you Three Dog Night listen to them they are funk God bless peace be with you much love and respect
Great reaction... these guys were part of the soundtrack of the 70s that contained some of the best vocal talent in history. Where have all the good male lead vocalists gone??? It just won't get better than what we grew up with.
Returning to your roots... 👍 Your 'Wait a second...That's Them...', reactions are among your best. You still have so much more 70's stuff to discover. I'll be watchin' ya. 🎹🎹🎹 🎸🎸
7 member band with 3 lead singers, each took lead depending on the song. Saw 3 Dog Night in Nov, the only original singer left is Dan Hutton ( one with wild hair) Corey Wells(lead singer with beard) passed away 2015, Chuck Negron (light blue shirt mustache) officially left the group in 1985. Please check out Try A Little Tenderness 1968 version. Boy they were so young then.
A top band in the late 1960’s into the early ‘70’s. One of the greatest harmonies by 3 lead singers.Songs like Jeremiah was a Bullfrog, one is The Loneliest Number, and many more big hits.
Most successful rock cover band ever! Fantastic singers great players. And they really knew how to pick songs! This one is by the great Randy Newman. Another of their best live performances is their cover of Otis Redding's Try a LIttle Tenderness.
They actually out sold the Beatles in records sales in the early to mid 70s! Many well known singers covered their songs! No doubt one of the greatest bands of their time!
The source of their name the eskimos would make an igloo and if it was cold outside they'd go out side and grab a dog and bring it inside if it was still too cold they'd get another dog if it was really cold they dragged a third dog inside it's called a Three dog night.
Always reminds me of some of the parties I attended in those days. The great Randy Newman wrote this song and 3-Dog Night had so many great hits that this is just the start.
I have so many memories of this band. I remember sitting in the car with my mother and playing with some toy kitchen set while listening to Joy to the World. I remember the first time I heard this song, I was looking at paperback books in Wood's Pharmacy in my tiny little town. Now just think, all the little kids like me, not quite teenagers hearing this song! LOL And trust me when I say that even in that tiny town there were parties you ended up at with your older brothers (or sisters) where you felt just like the guy in this song. LOL What a time. It's a wonder any of us survived. Whenever people say they wonder what is going to happen to the world with today's kids, I think back to those times and laugh. We survived and became responsible citizens. Everything will be fine.
These guys had literally 21 top 40 Billboard hit singles back in the day. There's not many artists who can say that. They were amazing players as well. The thing is that back then the studio versions were not that much better with bands like this. They could all just kill it on their instruments so when they played live it was amazing. And they were playing it live in the studio so it was an easier transition to take it to the stage.
This song was written by Randy Newman, His first solo hit - watch Randy Neman " Little People " Official video I still remember the verse "They have little cars that go Beep beep beep. He is best for "You got a Friend in Me" from Toy Story Also watch and Newman and friends " I Love L. A. " 2013 induction Hall of Fame. His second release was about his train ride through Baltimore The Mayor had it pulled after about a week.
I wore out their Live at the Forum - played Chest Fever over & over . Jamel you'd love it, has your cow bell AND organ!! They have a lot of great songs.
In 1971, I saw these guys at the Seattle Center Arena. Some smart-ass yelled that Floyd Sneed couldn't play. He dropped his sticks and played a blazing drum solo with nis finger tips. I believe it was his way of saying SIT DOWN!
I got to see them performing live about 20 years ago or so (I think). It was a different line-up of course but they were still great. They even were doing some new music at that point. They had so many great songs back in the day. It's a shame that they aren't remembered as well as some other bands of the time -- you hardly ever hear them now even on the so-called classic rock stations.
Momma told me not to come.... "That ain't the way to have fun...son". But apparently he went anyway and Momma was right! Yes, Three Dog Night and Grand Funk have similar sounds...at times. Great reaction!! 👍
Changed the words of the last verse though . On the studio version it's :" I've seen so many things I ain't never seen before , but the trouble with me is , I don't wanna see no more !" If you haven't done "Joy To The World" by Three Dog Night , I know you'll love that one too , Jamel . Interesting fact - The band's name is derived from a saying of Australian sheep herders , that would camp out with the flock . For warmth on cold nights , they would sleep next to a sheep dog , but , when it was particularly frigid , they would exclaim , "This is a three dog night !"
Three Dog Night was cool. They were in that category of popular circa 1970 rock bands that had a similar, lounge-lizard hipness vibe going on - groups like The Lovin' Spoonful, Jim Croce, Blood Sweat and Tears, Grand Funk, The Guess Who and some of that early 70's Chicago all had a similar feel to it. Pop radio friendly stuff - yet fairly hip; I remember hearing stuff like this on the school bus radio all the time. "Joy to the World" was one we used to sing in first grade music class; I think kids still do in a lot of schools.
I love watching you diggin' the music we were so lucky to have when we were growing up. Three Dog Night was the first live concert I ever went to, in Pocatello, Idaho at the Mini Dome. We ate purple microdot and had a hell of a night.
TDN. Has become a tribute band. Only one original member, Danny Hutton, is still performing. Chuck Negron performs with his own band, but you gotta remember these guys are 80, now. Cory Wells, the soulful singer died a number of years ago. The original bass player and keyboard player have also passed away
I remember walking into a music store with the album Three Dog Night's Greatest Hits and one of the co-owners asking me to be allowed to play this. Both your and his reactions are priceless; and almost identical.
This group was my first concert when I was a kid. They never disappoint. Any chance you can watch their live videos, do it...awesome performers and singers.
Hey brother, great video! Interesting fact about their name: In cold Arctic regions the dog sled drivers would often sleep at night up against a sled dog for warmth. A Very Cold Night was called a 3 Dog Night. They are a fun group for sure. Thank you

Jamal has responses to many of those songs! Check em out!!
Don't forget Pieces of April; they were at a completely different place with that one.
@@alanparsonsfan For sure! Out in the Country is another gem.
One of those bands that were just as good live as in studio.
The 4 musicians in the group always get overlooked but they were every bit as much a part of the band as the singers. And very, very talented.
Lion....what hppnd to all of them?
@@michaelasay8587 Joe Schermie (bass) & Jimmy Greenspoon (organ/keys) are deceased. The others (Floyd Snead/drums and Michael Allsup/guitar are alive).
Agree...TDN was a 7 piece band. Great Pop group.
@@jazzpunk Unfortunately, Floyd Sneed passed away in January.

Wow i never knew Randy Newman wrote this song but that makes so much sense, this has Newman satire all over it

@@kimberly3131 Same with Hoyt Axton.
Did Randy Newman write short people?

It's pretty good when it happens ☺️
Yeah man!
I was born 61 seen all the good music!
Yeah. I agree.👍
The "oh, this is THEM?" moment, always fun
Doesn't happen very often, but when it does, it's Cool!
Played this song for my eldest son when he was 13, told him to remember the words. He's 31 now, and I'm happy to say, he never forgot them, and never caused me a bit of grief.😊
13-31, eh?
You have a good son that listen to his mother.❤
The live version of Eli's Coming by Three Dog Night is a must!
A Laura Nyro classic!
Agreed, I love their version of that song.
"Liar" is another. "Out In The Country", too.
Cory Wells' chops on full display in the intro of that live version of Eli's Comin'.
Soooooooooo good. Also Eli's coming was the first CZcams video I ever watched.
RIP Floyd Sneed. The Brother who was their original drummer just passed away recently. He was 80 years old.
One of the greatest bands of the late 60s/early 70s. Loved me some Three Dog Night. And they did a great live gig.
Written by Randy Newman. He's an acclimated singer songwriter. His most known performance is probably with Lyle Lovett doing You've Got a Friend in Me from the Toy Story soundtrack. You might also know his hits Short People and I Love LA.
And the theme to the show Monk!
@@jameskearney4100 and a whole lot more👍
Also the music for The Natural- the final scene music was definitely Oscal worthy
Have loved this song my whole life and never knew that or made that connection, but yeah, I can hear it now.
Sail Away is his greatest song, IMO.
They had many hits in the 70s. They held the record for a long time of the most consecutive to hit the top 40.
i have loved 3 dog night since i was a kid. Look up joy to the world by them . Its one of those songs you A. can NOT help but dance to and B will never get out of your head.
Same! It tickled my little heart, that “Jeremiah was a bullfrog” line. Had no idea what it meant, but it delighted me.
I was 8 years old when Joy to the World was on the radio. It came on in the car and I made my dad leave it on. My parents asked me to sing it for them. (I knew most of the words.) so my dad learned to play it on his guitar and it became my song in our family sing a longs. Lol😂
Great Randy Newman song done with a little bit of tongue in cheek from the brilliant Three Dog Night.
I grew up with this music. Makes my heart smile with joy.
Me Too and I TOTALLY AGREE with you !
This band has a special sauce that simply isn't repeated. I don't even know how to classify the band beyond a vocal group with a great backing band.
I got to see Three Dog Night live twice and both times they put on incredible shows. Imagine a band with three lead singers, singers who didn't play any instruments, just sing! They covered many songs and always put their own spin on them. Great reaction Jamel!
Loved these guys since I was a teenager! That’s a long time, I still love their music.
Yeah this is a great one ... all over the radio back in the day. We had the best music everywhere all the time! And yes, it appears Three Dog Night are still active and on tour in 2023. Marvelous!
Ok, you won me over today, I subscribed, This is one of my fave songs and bands! I'm 63 so I've lived it!
My parents had the eight track tape. Loved lying on my back next to the stereo speaker with the music turned up! Loved all the songs on that eight track! “The child is black … the child is white … together they learn to read and write” was one of the lyrics in one of their songs

I met these guys in the 80's. They were very humble and down-to-earth. I always loved their music, but they really surprised and impressed me.
One of my favorite bands when I was a kid ✌️
One of my favorite rock bands was three Dog night back in the seventies we knew how to play good music 🎶 😎 👌 🤪 😤 🙌 🎶 😎 👌
Three dog 🐕 night is greatness. Harmonies. Rock. Soul. And head bobbing music. 😊
Such a fun song and danced to it so many times back then!
Three Dog Night hit it big about a year or two before Grand Funk Railroad came along, but both their careers were during the same time period, and both were wildly popular! Loved this reaction, Jamel! Thanks! ✌💙✌
Cory Wells, was so sexy his low register, rasp, soul (2nd only to Elvis) as well as Cory’s , “Oh Lawd” makes me swoon.
I’m 71, was rocking these guys in the early 70’s, still rocking them, and now my kids as well, thank you!
Three Dog's "Joy To The World", can save a terrible day.
RIP corey wells.
I saw them in the 90's at The California Mid-State Fair in Paso Robles. Free show! One of my mom's favorite bands, she was SO jealous of me! She lived here in Georgia, by that time, I was still in Paso then. I grew up listening to them, because of her, and live them too. It was an AWESOME show!! SO many great songs by them!

TY for that information.
@@philwilson7816 You're welcome! The band was called Little Daddy & the Bachelors. There's a couple of songs on YT.
Sadly Flloyd passed away last week 😥
My favorite songs of theirs is The Show Must Go On, which was written by Leo Sayer, followed by Liar, written by Rod Argent.
My favorite group ever! So many great songs that I can honestly say I can remember every lyric. I sometimes laugh at how easy it is to remember those words. Lol they are stuck in my brain forever 😉 great group of singers!

The classic written by the legendary Randy Newman 🤠
Love Three Dog Night!! They are sooo much better live!! Great singers!!
I have heard the bands name comes from being cold and outdoors and having three dogs there to keep one warm. Love it.
My very first concert at the University of Georgia very early 70’s. GO DAWGS

In your discovery, I rediscovered this great band...yup, heard them when they were current....love the live, and your reaction,
Love seeing you" light up" when you hear a good song. Miss that. ITS been a while.❤
That was my first concert I’m 65 now still love them I was only around ten standing up in my seat it was a blast
They were SOOOOOO GOOD!! AHHHH, such MEMORIES!!!!🥴😄🤩👍👍💥💥😍🤫

Short People
Cory, Danny & Chuck are all first-class lead vocalists
I saw these guys a few years back at a great outdoor venue. What a party it was! I forgot how many songs they did.
I wore out their Live at the Forum - played Chest Fever over & over . Jamel you'd love it, has your cow bell AND organ!! They have a lot of great songs.

I’ve always loved Three Dog Night. Still have 2 of their vinyl lp’s.
My older brother Ed would let me listen. He had 6 Lp Albums and he taught me to keep my 2 Lp's scratch free !
Your reviews of Three Dog Night (my favorite band) are the best!!! Thanks for doing them. Worthy of a follow
Eli's Coming live. Killer. You have to check that one out. This is one video you have to see live. It's an incredible vocal performance.

Joy to the World by them is a must. At the time, everyone within hearing distance would stop to sing along to that first line. :)

Interesting fact - The band's name is derived from a saying of Australian sheep herders , that would camp out with the flock . For warmth on cold nights , they would sleep next to a sheep dog , but , when it was particularly frigid , they would exclaim , "This is a three dog night !"
💙💙💙 This is my favorite Three Dog Night song. I also love Shambala.
Three Dog Night was cool. They were in that category of popular circa 1970 rock bands that had a similar, lounge-lizard hipness vibe going on - groups like The Lovin' Spoonful, Jim Croce, Blood Sweat and Tears, Grand Funk, The Guess Who and some of that early 70's Chicago all had a similar feel to it. Pop radio friendly stuff - yet fairly hip; I remember hearing stuff like this on the school bus radio all the time. "Joy to the World" was one we used to sing in first grade music class; I think kids still do in a lot of schools.
I love watching you diggin' the music we were so lucky to have when we were growing up. Three Dog Night was the first live concert I ever went to, in Pocatello, Idaho at the Mini Dome. We ate purple microdot and had a hell of a night.
The lead singer has alot of soul in him, sing and dance RIP 😢❤❤
TDN. Has become a tribute band. Only one original member, Danny Hutton, is still performing. Chuck Negron performs with his own band, but you gotta remember these guys are 80, now. Cory Wells, the soulful singer died a number of years ago. The original bass player and keyboard player have also passed away
I remember walking into a music store with the album Three Dog Night's Greatest Hits and one of the co-owners asking me to be allowed to play this. Both your and his reactions are priceless; and almost identical.
Man heard a lot of these guys in my younger years. My cousins and uncles all playing them and other bands that were like this. Memories
That ain't the way to have fun!!!! Heard this song many, many times. Yes, Three Dog Night was big back in the day!
Tom Jones did a cover
Joy to the world. Wendy Thompson
Their singer Chuck Negron still does local shows in Rhode Island where he lives. I saw him at Woonsocket Autumnfest in 2009 or 2010 I think
I saw him at the STING in New Britain, Connecticut. He's CLEAN & SOBER !
This group was my first concert when I was a kid. They never disappoint. Any chance you can watch their live videos, do it...awesome performers and singers.
Well Jamel, the numbers have spoken. Looks like Classic Rock from the 70's is what gets the views.
@@elysehfm8797 Ok I tried to respond back to you but it cut me off. I am still so upset that they have taken a lot of the joy out of this for him.
1st off, Thank you for doing this reaction. It's funny to watch you, when you really enjoy what you're doing. Keep up.the good work.
Hey brother, great video! Interesting fact about their name: In cold Arctic regions the dog sled drivers would often sleep at night up against a sled dog for warmth. A Very Cold Night was called a 3 Dog Night. They are a fun group for sure. Thank you
Floyd Sneed was the original drummer of Three Dog Night and was with them from 1968 until 1977.
His sister was married to Tommy Chong. And Floyd was in Tommy's Band.
My sweet dad got me front row tickets to Three Dog Night. One of my best presents ever!
A special song with a special message, Going to shady parties is not the way to have fun, And always listen to your mothers advice.
