• Eli's Coming (1975) - ...
For the first time on the channel, we are checking out Three Dog Night with a live performance of their song "Eli's Coming." This was another wild one but I loved every minute of it! The singers in this band are crazy good and any of them could have been a lead singer in any other band! Loved the harmonies and the song had such a unique arrangement! Can't wait to hear more from them! Hope you enjoy! #reaction #threedognight #70smusic #70smusichits #liveperformance #musicreactions

This performance blew me away! What should I check out next from Three Dog Night?!
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. Some of their hits are "Mama Told Me Not To Come", "One" (written by Harry Nilsson), "Just An Old Fashioned Love Song", "Black & White", "Easy To Be Hard", "Shambala", "Try A Little Tenderness", "Never Been To Spain", "The Show Must Go On", "Joy To The World" etc.
All 3 guys sing lead on different songs. The lead on this song was Corey Wells, the guy with the mustache is Chuck Negrone & the curly haired guy is Danny Hutton. They have other great songs to check out 👍
SHS - Laura Nyro’s version of this hit song, just one of many that she wrote, is surely the best. I’ve been listening to this music since the 60’s so I’ve learned something.
Would love to get your reaction to her version in the near future
For those who’ve never heard Laura’s music, it is a treasure waiting to be discovered
They had 3 lead singers.
❤. RIP Cory Wells🌹
Three Dog Night was famous for taking their audiences to church during live performances. It was not a 70s requirement that everyone in the band sang, but if you could, it elevated the overall experience. Other 3DN songs to hit: Shambala, Just an Old Fashioned Love Song, Black and White, One, Out in the Country, Easy to Be Hard, and Mama Told Me Not to Come. They didn't write their own material, but without a doubt, the greatest cover band in Rock n Roll history. 💯🔥
Their drummer here, Mike McMeel (was their drummer from 1972-1975), is good friend of mine. I met him outside of music, though. He runs a program at sponsored horse ranches called "Inner City Slickers". It's a program that is mostly a second chance program for young criminal offenders to learn discipline and proper social skills. I volunteered for it as a counselor, met Mike, hit it off, and we've been friends ever since.
McMeel was later, ' 74 - '76 I believe.
@@donpardo2510, looking it up, he was with them from 1973 to the middle of 1976. I will ask him later tonight, since my memory sucks. It is definitely him playing here, though, I can tell you that much.
@@johndeeregreen4592 yes it's clearly him in the video but I saw them for the 1st time in '73 with Floyd still at the drum kit. Looking at Wikipedia it also says '74-'76 but I understand Wiki isn't always accurate
@@donpardo2510, Mike said he was with them from October '73 to March '76.
I used to listen to 3 Dog Night a lot, but had forgotten how good they really are. I think I need to dig out some old albums and start listening to them again.
THE (TAROT) CARDS SAY: A BROKEN HEART!!
In 1971 the lead singer was the man in the middle with the mustash. I saw them in Knoxville, TN then.
Three Dog was a cover band, the best ever. Everything they touched turned to gold. This tune was written by Laura Nyro. Apparently she'd had her heart broken by that darn Eli. What a jerk
Three lead singers check out old fashioned love song
Chuck Negron is a character for sure!
The talent in the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s and 80’s is supreme, they had to be, talent meaning voices, music, lyrics…the music of today cannot compare unfortunately. Some exceptions of course.
“Eli’s Comin’,” was written and originally sung by Laura Nyro and released on March 3, 1968. The Three Dog Night cover was released in October 1969. Three Dog Night had three great lead singers, Chuck Negron (mustache), Corey Wells and Danny Hutton. The singers from The Big Band Era (1933-1947), the 1950’s-1960’s and the 1970’s all had to be great singers.
Part of their genius is that they take good songs, tweak the daylights out of them and make them great. They take the songs up several notches with their fiery arrangements.
Three lead singers. The first one you saw was Corey Wells. The mustached one was Chuck Negron. The one with the curly hair was Danny Hutton. They switched lead roles based on the song.
The impressive thing about this is it was recorded in the summer of 1975 when Three Dog Night was nearly at tbe end of tbeir run. Danny Hutton (on the left) was out of the band by the end of the year. Chuck Negron (on tne right with the great mustache) by then was aducted to heroin and would go thru hell before getting clean. They split in tne summer of '76. They sure had it together for this show!
I went to a Three dog night concert around 1971 and they were so good that they did 7 encores then finally apologize that they had to stop because the police were telling them the building had to close since it was past midnight.
Now that’s a show!! Love that! 🤘🏻
I was hoping you’d react to one with one with their original drummer Floyd Sneed. (Nothing against Mike McMeel) Floyd Sneed is one of my favorite drummers. You should check out one of his drum solos. They are available on TH-cam and they are amazing. Their first live album “Around The World with Three Dog Night” has some of the best sounding, best quality recording and extremely tasteful drums of any album ever! BTW this was just your average every day Three Dog Night vocals performances! They had a LOT of hits.
Back when talent was required. “Out in the Country” is my favorite.
Easy to be hard and Pieces of April are two gems.
They were a great cover band. Laura Nyro wrote this song, and many more that other groups made famous. Please check her out.
One is the Loneliest Number, Celebrate, Never Been to Spain, list goes on.
My favorite of those three was always "Never Been to Spain." 😀
Mama Told Me not to come or Shamballa
This live performance is always amazing to watch but you should go listen to the studio version which is much more polished and put together. It's what we would have heard on the radio and sang along to.
Just some other Three Dog Night songs are: - "One" - "Easy To Be Hard" - "Never Been To Spain" - "Shambala" - "An Old Fashion Love Song" - "Mama Told Me" - "Black and White"
The world's most successful cover band!!
Is that all they did? No originals?
@@setonhillstudios 21 Top 40 hits in a row and 11 top 10s - all cover songs!
Back when rock bands had lead lead singers who were actually talented vocalists! Most bands are lucky to have One player with a great voice. TDN had Three!
Thanks for this one; one of my fav bands of all time; "Mama Told Me Not To Come" and "Just An Old Fashion Love Song" are my Favs.
Thanks Milton!!! 😄
The three vocalists formed up and added 4 musicians, sometimes an extra keyboard, and away they went. Three lead singers, taking turns,
This band was built around the 3 lead singers. They're also a cover band, taking uncharted songs or songs from unknown writers and turning them into hits. They were my first concert when I was 14 or 15. I got all their autographs. Keep going with them! Their drummer is Floyd Sneed and the talent is crazy good! Cory Wells, the first singer handled all the soulful songs. They did a great rendition of Otis Redding's Try A Little Tenderness. Never Been To Spain, One and Joy To The World are all worth a listen.
Watching/hearing this first time with you. I only know Joy To The World, so I got no idea who Eli is, he sounds like trouble though, and these gents are takin' us to church!! ✌❤
Every, every, every time, when the background music is "shushed," and the first time you hear, "Eli's comin"!" I get goosebumps all over. The rest of the song does the same thing to me. The absolutely tremendously gorgeous and beautiful HARMONICS they created (along with their OTHER skills) with this song, just tear me apart...in a HUGELY GREAT WAY!"
I'm honestly not sure whether or not anyone actually identified who "Eli" might be. However...WHO CARES!!! Just let the music slide over and under, and in and out of your being. 😀
THANK YOU VERY MUCH for this reaction. I REALLY needed to hear this music tonight!
Take your pick from Dagmar below.....all of those are fire!
I have never known Three Dog Night to fail. Many, many years of appreciation for their music. Yeah, great stuff, and yes, everyone that needed to sing could sing.
Yea!! These are my boys! Saw them live in concert around 1974. They're amazing. This is from 1975 Soundstage. Full concert on TH-cam. I watch it all the time ❤
RIP Cory❤
Me too!❤
The Soundstage program was taped in Chicago, as were the other Soundstage shows including one with The Bee Gees. The good old 70s.
Three Dog owned the airwaves from the late 60’s to the mid 70’s
I was crazy the amount of good music back in the day
These guys grew up in a time where not only did everyone's kids go to church every Sunday, and sang in church regardless of what denomination it was. But the main reason why you see so many musical groups have such a wide variety of talents is because even from first grade on in the school music class was part of the curriculum. I'm just a little bit younger than them so I can tell you that it was a time where kids not only learned to read but they learned to read and write music scores and everyone in my elementary school was required to learn to play an instrument. I learned to play the flute. One of my brothers learned to play the clarinet and the other the saxophone. If you ask anyone who's a baby boomer or older they will tell you this is how they learned to appreciate music. Unfortunately for the entire countries educational legacy, this ended shortly after I left school. Now none of the kids have designated music classes unless they're in an affluent neighborhood. These days they barely have the resources to teach them how to read and none of them learns the art of cursive writing anymore. It's why the world has boiled itself down to hip hop artists that literally don't create anything out of their own imaginations and claim they are giving a nod to the artist they are using, but never acknowledged that it's someone else's original work to the point where most hip hop reactors hear things that are familiar to them and never knew where it came from.
The whole point of sampling is the piece of work you are stealing is short enough that you don't legally have to give credit or ask for permission. To me it's the equivalent of an artist creating a portrait, then a hip hop artist assembling a crossword puzzle of someone else's work and calling it art.
@decolonizeEverywhere -- Well-said, all the way down! I, for one, was in the same position, growing up (even before THEY were growing up -- born 11/29/1949). Music was an integral part of my life, before I could even speak, and becoming school age didn't change that -- only enhanced it, because we had GREAT music teachers all the way through school, in Valdez, Alaska, PLUS both my mom and dad (Mom was a professional violinist, and BOTH of them sang and danced -- professionally, at one time). These days? Hmmmm. It's one reason my youngest daughter and I have homeschooled all of her children eight children, to date. I homeschooled HER, beginning in 6th grade, after being very angry with one of her teachers...long story.
Since our whole family is musical from a LONG time back (several generations, at least), part of the homeschooling has included vocal and instrumental instruction, as well (not formal...mainly just encouraging, with lots of hints and extra info when necessary). I have a very short little composition on my website, created by my nine-year-old grandson Wesley, that he wrote a couple of months ago, that will be an intro for a boss-battle that has yet to be implemented in the game that two of his older brothers are still working on. One is doing the coding, but both he and his brother (a little than a year older than he...he is now 15 & his brother is 16), are the game-makers of great family renown at the moment. (grin) The 16-year-old ALSO composes (just as his mother did, before him).
You should have hear the two versions of "Happy Birthday" we sang just yesterday for their Mom who reached age 39 (Sunday, August 11, 2024). We FIRST sang it as my husband has been leading that song for YEARS...with everyone in different keys, and in different rhythms, with a LOT of laughter, as the birthday person cringes.
THEN (because we also had company yesterday), we doubled up, my 20-year-old grandson led into the second version with the first note, and everyone launched into a GORGEOUS arrangement (with a chorus of 15 people). Even the "littles" (the youngest is 4-1/2, now) sing harmony, and even the boys whose speaking voices are now either tenor or bass, are still reaching up into the soprano ranges to sing. I didn't have my phone with me when we sang that one yesterday, or it would DEFINITELY have become a very special and treasured video. Nobody else recorded it, either, but...WOW!
I DEFINITELY agree with you that kids should start learning GOOD, SOLID, music methods and theory, from the time they are only little beings. 😀
"Easy to be hard". Great vocals!
If you listen carefully, repeated often is the line "better hide your heart". Sounds to me like Eli was one of those dangerously smooth talking gents who had no plans to put down roots or settle down, so he was a threat to women's hearts.
Gotcha! 🤣
All 3 great singers. 3 dog night
Their fame comes from singing covers, and they do such a great job at it!
3 lead singers
Welcome to Rock n Roll Church.😎🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸.
On cold nights, indigenous Australians would sleep in holes in the ground with Dingo's for warmth. If the night was especially cold, they would sleep with two dogs, and if it was freezing, it was a "three dog night".
😳😳
Great reaction! Need to check out “Mama Told Me Not To Come “, you will love it.
ThreeDog Night was the first album I ever owned! You can’t go wrong with anything they recorded. “One” is a contrast to this one. “Liar” has some of the same feel as this one. All of them are great!
I never knew what you called all the different parts, just that it sounded good! I've always loved listening to them. Joy to the World is one of my favorites by them, written by Hoyt Axton!
I seen Harry one time and he was an awesome date night concert. I only can say check out Taxi.
7 member band with 3 of them being lead singers. Corey Wells was from Buffalo NY passed away 2015, Danny Hutton (one who held the long note) is from Ireland, and Chuck Negron ( mousetache) is from NY City he officially left the group 1985. Danny Hutton is the only original singer left in the group. He still tours .
Man they had a string of hits in the seventies. We were hearing them constantly on the radio as well as in my massive collection of music. Joy to world was just one of many. Check out The Show Must Go On from 1974.
Those platform shoes and the pants, oh man that takes me back ha! I was 13 in 1975 and loved this band, still do! This is probably my fave performance of all the live ones out there.
Whatever this concert was you need to react to each an every song they sang here. Holy Mother...
Shambala or Never Been to Spain- either song is fantastic
Appreciate it! 😃
I love 3 Dog Night but I like Laura Nero’s version of this song the best.
How about Chuck Negron's awesome stache
3Dog (singers) Night
Thanks! There is something so hopeful when I watch younger generations exploring, discovering, listening to and genuinely appreciating, if not all out loving, this music from some of the greatest artists from days past. I appreciate your willingness to listen. You should check out 3Dog Night's "I Must Let the Show Go On". 🤟
@@roxannerolle1319 Thank you so much for your generosity!! It truly means alot and blesses me more than you know! I’ll have to check that one out! Thanks again and have a great day! 😃
I like the studio version better. A great follow-up would be " Never Been to Spain " Black and White " and of course " Joy to the World "(not Christmas) or "Jumbula "
another rabbithole, my friend
Three Dog Night..."Mama Told Me not to Come".
Before Three Dog Night, the guy with the curly hair was backing Kenny Rogers in the First Edition. One that no one knows of there's is from 1983 It's A Jungle Out There, when I say them live, there was energy; They fed off of the 1500 in the room designed for about 800. As said in Old Fashioned Love Song they're great in three part harmony.
Just proof that Auto Tune wasn't required on every song!
The Vocals, Musianship, amazing!
Say 50 yrs ago...
👍❤️🙂
That was wild!! I think one of the reasons why they could hit those high registers is bc they had no room to breathe with them tight pants on. My goodness! In '75 I was in my KISS cover band.🤣😂
😂🤣😂 Hilarious!
You need to check out Black and White. The song still has meaning today.
Check out "Black and White" next!
Heaven is in your mind. Live is a killer song. They opened with it on their live 1969 at the forum live album. Pretty cool tune ad well.
Three Dog is why Creedence Clearwater Revival couldn’t hit number one
"Eli is coming"is a Jewish song that is sung at Passover and refers to the Prophet Elijah (a badss prophet) who was taken to heaven by Gods golden chariot as found in the Book of Kings & Chronicles. All must die once so at Passover an empty place setting is prepared in case Elijah returns a place is ready for him. Many Christians believe he will accompany Moses when the two prophets prophecy in Jerusalem as per the Book of Revelation
As for 3dog night...Im not sure who Eli is😂
I have thought of that, too, but never have been sure how it connected to the rest of the song. 😀
Really? Eli is a high priest and judge of Israel in the Bible.
I don't know any of their names but the band featured three lead singers--one for each dog night. Studio recordings are almost always superior to these live performances. This one is no exception. The guys were much younger on their early albums so they had already lost much of their vocal power by this time. A great group, however.
This song always makes me think of a 12 pound steak. It’s real good but way too much!
For a time, 3DN outsold The Beatles
The only reason they could never be in the Hall of Fame was they didn't create their own music.
Neither did Elvis, but no one would deny he belongs in the RRHOF. Singer-songwriters weren't always a thing.
@@jeaniejoseph940 Agreed.
True they did not write their own songs but they had 21 top 40 hits. Three reached number 1 and eleven reached the top 10. That’s way more of an accomplishment than some bands, perhaps, many that are in the Rock Hall of Fame.
They didn’t write the song but created the arrangement and thus the music
@@mikeobrien2451great point!
Studio version was much much better
I’ll have to check that out! Appreciate the insight!
Pale imitation
Terrible version, original 69 studio version much better
🤷🏻♂️
👍❤️🙂
