Without a doubt. Supposedly they aren't because they didn't write most of their own music. They did write some however, and more importantly brought attention to many emerging songwriters like Harry Nilsson and Randy Newman. They also made a song their own when they recorded it (check out other versions of "Mama Told Me Not To Come", to see what I mean). And keep in mind Elvis, who is (deservedly) in many Halls of Fame NEVER WROTE A SINGLE SONG. Not one. So I call bullshit on that excuse for not including 3DN in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They helped define an era FFS.

The naysayers use the "but they didn't write their own music" approach which is crap because most of the Motown acts in the R&R HOF didn't write their own music or play instruments either but because they were in 60s and supposedly "cool" they get inducted. The HOF definitely favors the 60's over the 70's and 80's for popular music artists. At least with the fan vote we are seeing some more acts inducted that should have been in a long time ago.

Good Lord I miss this decade.

I'm sure the majority of people don't realize they don't have monitors. This means they can't quite hear what the others are singing. They are able to hear what's being played on the house speakers for the audience. This doesn't sound like a big deal but it is. To achieve the harmonies they do you must have perfect pitch and confidence in yourself and the other guys. This wasn't unusual for the time but what is, is the level of achievement they hit. Just a phenomenal band.

I just watched an interview with Cory Wells from 2011. He said they put a halt to the band in 1975 because Danny and Chuck had fallen off the deep end due to drugs. This is probably one of the last concerts they did before that happened. How crazy that Cory was always the one that lead such a clean life and never did drugs, but then he was the first to go. 🫤 What a singer he was! He was always one of my favorites growing up.

While your assessment of the musicians in the band is spot on, this is a somewhat later version of the band. Jimmy Greenspoon is still in the group (in '75), but Joe Schermie and Floyd Sneed are already gone. Michael Allsup is gone at this point, but he does return later. There's also a second keyboardist in this lineup, Skip Konte. The guitarist in this video is probably James Smith, but could also possibly be Al Ciner, depending on when in '75 it was filmed. The bassist was probably Jack Ryland, but also could have been Dennis Belfield, again depending on the timing. The drummer in this video is Mickey McMeel.

I saw an interview with Chuck where he told of their drug use back then. He said it was given to them by their producer so they would have lots of energy to put on a great show. Chuck said it just about took his, and his wife's lives. He said they go so kooked on it they were high every waking minute of the day. Him getting kicked out of the band, and them going broke turned them around. I agree this was one hell of a band when they were together.

One of the best captures of this amazing band. So grateful I had the opportunity to witness them live in the early 80s. They were an unstoppable force and grace.

This is an absolute masterpiece and triumph of mid 70s live production. From the singers and band performing with pretty much no monitors, to the complexity of what the keyboard player is adding to the sound using what must be some kind of mellotron, this is mind blowing.

Chuck Negron provided great vocal fills, it's very evident on Eli's Coming and Celebrate, and he was in the zone this performance. Dude was on fire. I wish I could've been there. Long live 3DN. Thanks for posting!

Back in the day, like 1972, I talked with several musicians that worked with 3 Dog Night and they all said that Cory was the main force behind them. They were all lead singers, however, Cory was the main man....Plus, he was a terrific guy...and didn't have a big head.. So much talent, and he continued to improve, year after year...Any how, just saying, from a still kicking drummer...........

I would like to start a petition to get Three Dog Night into the Rock & Roll Hall of fame! Or if there already is one I'll sign it. I'd like to think that part of the recognition is having the original band members alive when they're inducted. I think I've heard getting in can't be sooner than 25yrs after a band starts. They should have been inducted during the 1990s! I can't figure this oversight out. Or whatever the reason might be.

They were far more than a cover band. They personally chose (often obscure) songs and re-arranged them, making them their own and turning them into major hits. The majority of the time their version was better than the original writer's arrangement and vocals. They also brought a lot of relatively unknown songwriters to the attention of the general public. There's quite a few songwriters out there who owe a lot to Three Dog Night.

I know all of that and none of it matters. The definition of a cover band is a band that doesn't play or record original material. Period. Only 9% of their recorded material was original (if you don't count the EP at the end of their career, otherwise the percentage is lower); 91% were covers. Therefore, they are a cover band. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cover_band#Examples_of_cover_acts However, that doesn't take anything away from how good they were or how successful they were. I love TDN. I saw them 30some years ago when Chuck was still in the band and have read both his and Jimmy Greenspoon's autobiographies. At one time I owned all of their albums and I still listen to them occasionally. But they were still a cover band and that's why they'll probably never make it into the R&R HoF.

Love that you can see who sings what parts of the songs. And who’s lead singer on certain songs. The three really harmonized well together. Travesty that they are not in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame.

Thank you for posting an AWESOME concert from an AWESOME band in a better time. Love it!

Corey’s mannerisms in the first performance here were definitely an inspiration for Steve Perry, practically identical.

What we miss my God...!Pure talent,pure magic!Greetings from Greece

Amazing harmony!!!

In their prime days they outsold both the Beatles and the Stones. Absolutely belong in hall of fame....and your talking to a Metallica fan.

Love the Monkees (I was 7 when they came out), but they didn't write the good songs themselves. Neil Diamond even wrote a couple. TDN did some INCREDIBLE song writing. I bought a greatest hits album of theirs with 20 tracks, and was pleased to find I knew almost every song from radio play.

I know of one band they did not outsell---The mighty Led Zeppelin

@@AlbertEinsteinSpock I said OUTSELL, not how many Top 40 hits they had. Which incidentally, TDN wrote none of them. Led Zeppelin was not a singles band-they were an album band. I was speaking of total record sales. I love Three Dog Night by the way and was just listening to "Suitable For Framing" the other day. Understand that I am not demeaning Three Dog Night's legacy in any way.

@@AlbertEinsteinSpock Ok Ok I get it. Point taken. So some comparisons don't bear close examination as in my Zep retort. You seem to me to be like me in alot of respects in that we both love Classic Music. I love Three Dog Night as I mentioned in my last post. I actually own their albums as opposed to the more popular Greatest Hits packages, so I have no ax to grind with TDN. Btw, that was not directed at you. I completely agree with you.
