Three Dog night. Hell yeah! Although these guys got screwed by corporate, they still were one of the best bands from the 70's. Gimmee a "like" if you agree.
They were an amazing band. I dont think I many people realized how many hits they had. Three amazing lead singers Chuck,Danny and Corey. Thank you for memories
A number of popular artists covered their songs (Elton John, 'Your song'.. Leo Sayer with this one 'The show must go on') to become great hits a few years later...
@@johnegli1308 Yeah, going long before some covering performers made hits of their songs. It only just came to me the similarity of 'Shambala' and 'Handle me with care', released in 1987 by the Traveling Wilburys featuring Jeff Lynne, George Harrison, and Roy Orbison...
I read one of the comments below which stated Three Dog Night are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and I couldn't believe it so I googled it. It is a fact and a shame but it is true. They were pioneers and have every right to be recognized for their contributions....
Political they didn't sign contract with the board member of RRHOF to his Atlantic Records.They were with Dunhill Records. He had a grudge about that Dead now but a stipulation exists...Its the RRH of Flames in my book!
Yes! So many people have great childhood recollections of Joy To the World - I remember being delighted by the "joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea" line and singing it at a playground.
The singer in the band has a shirt on like all of us wore in the seventies, screen print or whatever...men and women had them. They were really the hit top to wear.
But Sayer HATED this version, saying they had changed the meaning of the song. Indeed, in the original text, he says "I WON'T let the show go on", whereas they changed it to "I MUST let the show go on". Personally, I prefer this version. And Leon Russell's presence is simply icing on the cake.
@@kazabushy TDN covered the song... I saw a video clip of the original.. I 've always thought that the Barker imitation in the TDN cover was a nice touch
@@KatyReminiec9399 Yes I know they did. Please don't educate me on rock history. I have never been a fan of covers unless they pay homage to and make people aware of the original artist. Don't even get me started on Behind Blue Eyes. NO cover band deserves to be in the RRHOF (as much as it is rigged as it is).
Man.........fucking hands down.......THEY ROCK!!! I grew up listening to 3DN thanks to my Dad. Such rare musicians they were...and the 3 voices...HOLY MOLY. Try and find a band with just 1 good one nowadays. Nothing quite like the 70's era. I am truly blessed. Thanks guys :-]

And charisma, a great sense of fun, and ability to connect to an audience- his version of The Show Must Go On is just riveting and, to me, perfection. I wonder if he was high as a kite singing it?!
Usually live shows leave me wanting to hear the "clean' studio version, but not this time! That lead singer really nails it! Never was a TDN fan but loved this song.....and the way he sings it....great!
Chuck Negron was the main singer in 3 Dog Night - either you've got it, or you don't - Chuck Negron, cool, handsome with an amazing voice and range to his voice, expressive too.
The melody, the vocals/harmonizing,the arrangement is a masterpiece. It’s the kind of song that when it comes on the radio, you stop hearing anything else around you. It is commanding of your attention. It is that good. This performance is stellar.. I don’t want to say that the new music is boring, lackluster, and non creative, but I have to. It started going downhill in the 90’s. Chuck Negron was gorgeous!
Listening to a replay right now of American Top 40 from May 25, 1974; 39 years ago today. This song was at #4 on the Billboard Hot 100. Nice to listen and go back in time when I was 11 years old and hear these songs, many of which I still have today. I remember the Summer of 1974 was so much as a kid; family vacations, a lemonade stand, wacky packages, pop rocks, bazuka, GI Joe, monster mags/movies, collecting Matchbox cars etc....
ABSOLUTELY ... THE THREE BEST VOCALISTS ANY GROUP EVER AD ... and yes ... that includes the Beatles ... NOBODY HAD THREE VOCALISTS AS GOOD s them ....... N O B O D Y !!!!!
Chuck Negron came and did a show in my town last night and afterwards I went up to him and got his autograph and a picture with him. He's a really cool guy and really nice.
"Liar" (by Ballard, one of my favorite musicians) by 3 Dog Night was so advanced for its day! "Mamma Told Me Not to Come" cracked me up when I heard it!
As someone who did grow up to experience it, and with older brothers and sister, I can tell you that even as comparatively commonplace as quality musicianship and songwriting and arranging as this was, I can remember staring at my little radio and saying to myself, "this is amazing, it can't last forever." Even the 80's were amazing, they just sounded different with all of the technical gimmickery infused into the music. The 90's is where things really started to take a nosedive.
Steve Blaugh You're right, during the 90's was the transition. Most noticeably, groups just stopped signing in or with backup HARMONY format (e.g. America & Crosby, Stills, Nash) and it became mainly just one solo singer with the same mono type mid-range voice (cookie cutter voice-same voice and style with different song and music).
You always had the radio on and you couldn't wait for your favorite song to come on. They didn't play just 10 songs over and over back then like they do today. So your favorite song might come on once a day if you were lucky and it was when you least expected it... it really made you happy. the 70s were great. We would also listen to the CBS Radio Mystery Theater each night with the radio under our pillows. Radio was everything. From your favorite song, to spots for movies. The radio spots for Jaws terrified you as much as the movie.
Jeff Bear They never wrote their songs but their box set is a who's who of some of the greatest songwriters of that era including Leo Sayer and Paul Williams. They may not have wrote them but they knew how to pick them. ☺
@@WytZox1 they didn't write their songs but some like Joy To The World were written for them or given to them to record first whilst others like this one were just cover versions. This had already been a big hit for Leo Sayer in the UK.
Lots of comments about TDN not writing there own songs, but for those of us in the late 60's thru mid 1970's these guys were "IT" ...... does anyone really think that it mattered to us then? The songs could not have been sung and performed any better than TDN. Their look, voices and the feel of their songs were pure to the era. Thanks for posting these vids duderock48.
TDN came along at the right time when music was pivoting from bands to songwriters. I would submit they gave a lot of rising songwriters exposure they might not have had otherwise.
I think when we were growing up and listening to all these great artists that we never realized how privileged we were! God, Turing on the radio was like a religious act that we took so much for granted. Now the music has no soul and like the song American Pie the music today has died.
fell in love with this group when i was 15 and when my son was 7 took him to a baseball game in Las Vegas and 3 Dog Night played after the game, back in 1991. His first concert and my first time seeing them live. We BOTH enjoyed it immensely as did the rest of the sold out crowd. Great entertainers.
These guys were great live in Vancouver 1974. I always loved this song. Sorry to hear about Cory Wells. I remember how wonderful, tall, and sleak he looked in a white suit. These guys were really professional and put on a terrific show.
I just noticed this performance was remixed, using the regular in studio release. While that version is great, this live version is so incredibly much more enjoyable to me. The way "walkin on the wire" is thrown together is just one of the many unique presentations which I hope won't be messed with in the future. There's nothing like live music and to be able to offer this in such a fabulous way is indescribable.
For you kids under 35 years of age: This is called a Rock'n'Roll band. Great lyrics, great melody, great vocals, great instrumentalists. Don't be frightened.
The words High Wire is approaching his 4 octave vocal range. It’s a fun song. I’m impressed. I can’t stop hearing everyday. I’m trying to imitate his vocals but not quite there yet! Lol
This song freaking rocks. I remember as a kid hearing it come on the radio and loving it not even knowing who sang it. It just rocks. And Chuck is perfect singing it.
Chuck was out of is mind high, but it never became apparent until he was too far over the edge and almost killed himself in a car wreck on his way to a gig. They scooped him up, put a couple of bandaids on him, and he did the show. The audience was none the wiser. Incredible. For a great read, pick up Three Dog Nightmare by Chuck. The 70's and 80's music scene was insane. I know it, is was in the middle of it. Any drug you could want, anytime you wanted it, and women.......well, we won't get into that. As a singer, Chuck is one of my three greatest heros. The way he fought back from the addiction on and became a productive member of society is incredible. Unfortunately, I don't think Danny or Cory will ever let him perform with them again. It's too bad. The were a force to be reckoned with. I was their light guy for some west coast dates in the mid 70's and they were the consumate professionals.
Jerry Clausen I totally disagree...the three of them together formed the best band ever with three great lead singers....all that talent....was truly awesome..
***** I read the book by Chuck Negron...I loved this band..I worked for ABC records back in the 70s .Every time they cut a new album I knew I was guaranteed overtime. LOL They carried ABC for a long while. Dont know about others that read book,but after reading it and seeing how low Negron could go,I couldnt get in the shower fast enough..I really thought Chuck made 3 Dog Night.But what he did to the band with his addiction was too say the least, very selfish..I wish they would kiss n make up,but that will never happen. If I'M not mistaken it is Cory that really holds the "grudge""
***** I don't know about him still having his voice. I just saw him sing, "One", on t.v. a few weeks ago at one of those PBS oldies shows and, although he CAN still sing, whatever song it is that he sang, on the record, he hits the high note and holds it for a bar or two, at this gig, he hit the note every time, but ABRUPTLY cut it off as soon as he hit it!! On the record he goes, "Oooooooooone is the loneliest number", at this gig he went, "Ooone.........is the loneliest number".
I remember going down to the record store when i was 13 and spending my lawn mowing money on this album. I LOVED this song so much when i was a kid. They dont make music like this anymore. The 70's were the best!!!
Buenísimo. Gracias por compartirla! La había escuchado una vez cuando niño, no la encontraba y la veo acá, como quien recupera un objeto perdido en la infancia.
When Show Go On came out I was 12 and it was among my favorite tunes. Everyone in the band Three Dog Night sing and play with such passion! I later saw the band at the Carlton in Bloomington, 1983 and their performance was so incredible I had forgotten I was on a date. When the show was over the lights came on and there sat this gorgeous woman I had taken to the show. Well, music really moves me.
Three Dog night. Hell yeah! Although these guys got screwed by corporate, they still were one of the best bands from the 70's. Gimmee a "like" if you agree.
💯% FACT
Agree
They were an amazing band. I dont think I many people realized how many hits they had. Three amazing lead singers Chuck,Danny and Corey.
Thank you for memories
Chuck & Corey were my favorite frontmen
Chuck & Cory were my favorite frontmen... Danny Hutton's voice always left me cold.... he would've made a great carnival barker !

I was at this concert in 1972. The wizard still sticks out in my mind.
Who is the WIZARD...reminds me of CrazyWorld of Arthur Brown?? 🤘
Where was the concert?
Looks like Roy Wood to me.

Im here and im?56 come January we had the very best as far as music goes .
I feel bad forvyhe kids nowadays they have rap and a singing bever lmao
Im 53 and listen to them also. Plus my second favorite is blood sweat and tears.
My dad passed away and he loved them. I'm from Maryland, so one of them lived out here for awhile. This music takes me back to when it was fun
Awesome
What a great voice he has!
Three dog night is one of the best bands ever! Remember singing joy to the world as a child! Now 61 years old. Good memories!
Yes! So many people have great childhood recollections of Joy To the World - I remember being delighted by the "joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea" line and singing it at a playground.
On your transistor radio!
Great version of a Leo Sayer classic. I played the 45rpm record in the mid 70's all the time when I was 10 years old!
The singer in the band has a shirt on like all of us wore in the seventies, screen print or whatever...men and women had them. They were really the hit top to wear.
I really miss the days when you could turn on the radio and hear cool high quality songs like this!
Well said
I heard this today on the radio 😊
Wow, I never knew there was another version of Leo's song! They really did it justice!
You and me both. I just found this one, after hearing Leo Sayer sing it for 48 years.
But Sayer HATED this version, saying they had changed the meaning of the song. Indeed, in the original text, he says "I WON'T let the show go on", whereas they changed it to "I MUST let the show go on". Personally, I prefer this version. And Leon Russell's presence is simply icing on the cake.
I didn't know that it was a Leo Sayer song until I heard it from a '70s Casey Kasem AT 40 flashback. I hear the 3 Dog Night version all the time.
Me too
"It uses a circus theme as a metaphor for dealing with dificulties and wrong choices of life"
Alex Hernández Leo Sayer wrote and released it. Leo performed it in a clown outfit. I guess they copied the theme. They did a great job though.👍

My fav Dog. And they're all so good
Both Chuck Negron & Cory Wells for me
i can't stop watching cory wells as well
My first crush! and i was sooo little! And so began my love of men with facial hair LOL.
Amazing but check out Leo Sayers version... Live where he's dressed as a clown
That note Chuck hits at the two minute mark is amazing!
His whole performance is amazing!- can't stop playing this
I really like the faster tempo this live version offers. I actually love both Three Dog Night versions.
Lyrics
Baby, although I chose this lonely life
It seems it's stranglin' me now
All the wild men, big cigars, gigantic car
They're all laughin' at the lie
Oh, I've been used Ooh-oh-oh-oh
I've been a fool, oh, what a fool
I broke all the rules Oh, yeah
But I must let the show go on
Baby, there's an enormous crowd of people
They're all after my blood
I wish maybe they'd tear down the walls of this theater
Let me out, let me out
Oh, I'm so blind, oh, I'm blind
I wasted time wasted, wasted, wasted time
Walkin' on the wire, high wire
But I must let the show go on
Oh, I'm so blind, oh, I'm blind
I wasted time, wasted, wasted, all too much time
Walkin' on the wire, high wire
But I must let the show go on
Baby, I wish you'd help me escape
Help me get away
Leave me outside my address
Far away from this masquerade
'Cause I've been blind, oh, so blind
I wasted time, wasted, wasted, all too much time
Walkin' on the wire, high wire
But I must let the show go
I must let the show go
I must let the show go on
Chuck is such a great singer. They all are. Chuck has something very unique. What a talent
And charisma, a great sense of fun, and ability to connect to an audience- his version of The Show Must Go On is just riveting and, to me, perfection. I wonder if he was high as a kite singing it?!

Whatever he was on here it is a perfect performance- what a voice!
A great, classic song from a great, classic band. RIP Cory Wells, who just died on October 21, 2015.
Chuck can sing, Perfection!
underappreciated group. I like harmony.
who was out there back in the day jammin Three Dog Night. Music was so real back in my day
It was much more entertaining, - and wow what a voice he had.
I graduated in 75’,and these were some of the best days in my life.
Remembering USAF veteran Cory Wells on this Memorial Day.
This was playing as my mom went into labor with me. Beautiful

I'm 53 and Three Dog Night was one of my first Rock n Roll 🎶🎶love this song had a carnys romance 🎶❤️🇺🇸

Sad to hear that the group is’nt even recognized to be in the Rock n’ Roll hall of fame. They did as much(or more) than some others did.

As someone who did grow up to experience it, and with older brothers and sister, I can tell you that even as comparatively commonplace as quality musicianship and songwriting and arranging as this was, I can remember staring at my little radio and saying to myself, "this is amazing, it can't last forever." Even the 80's were amazing, they just sounded different with all of the technical gimmickery infused into the music. The 90's is where things really started to take a nosedive.

Am I the only person that's amazed that anybody of my generation is alive with all the tight, tight pants people wore in the 70's?
prolly not many kids between em.
We wore tight then to attract the ladies, now they're just tight period and no ladies are attracted...
Michael Crehan you suck
Like a cheap motel; No ballroom!!!!!!
Great song !! Love it!!
GREAT LIVE VERSION !!!
Excellent, excellent version!👍
This is truly the best version of this song!!!! I can't hear it enough.Chuck is so very talented.
Hello Amy, How are you doing?
Couldn't disagree more. Leo Sayers is much better, IMO
I can only wished I would I seen this Marvelous BAND Live!!!
I would have probably bartered w/ that Dark Some Bitch to see these guys live in there prime
Lol me and my friend were in the garage and all the sudden this song came on and it was the funniest thing ever... cant believe I found it hahaha lmao
Serious lyrics but how great is it seeing it sung with such feeling? LOVE IT🎉
Chuck was out of is mind high, but it never became apparent until he was too far over the edge and almost killed himself in a car wreck on his way to a gig. They scooped him up, put a couple of bandaids on him, and he did the show. The audience was none the wiser. Incredible. For a great read, pick up Three Dog Nightmare by Chuck. The 70's and 80's music scene was insane. I know it, is was in the middle of it. Any drug you could want, anytime you wanted it, and women.......well, we won't get into that. As a singer, Chuck is one of my three greatest heros. The way he fought back from the addiction on and became a productive member of society is incredible. Unfortunately, I don't think Danny or Cory will ever let him perform with them again. It's too bad. The were a force to be reckoned with. I was their light guy for some west coast dates in the mid 70's and they were the consumate professionals.
Oh, I don't know about that! I was in the music biz in the `80's and never got any women!!
I totally agree.
Jerry Clausen
I totally disagree...the three of them together formed the best band ever with three great lead singers....all that talent....was truly awesome..
***** I read the book by Chuck Negron...I loved this band..I worked for ABC records back in the 70s .Every time they cut a new album I knew I was guaranteed overtime. LOL They carried ABC for a long while.
Dont know about others that read book,but after reading it and seeing how low Negron could go,I couldnt get in the shower fast enough..I really thought Chuck made 3 Dog Night.But what he did to the band with his addiction was too say the least, very selfish..I wish they would kiss n make up,but that will never happen. If I'M not mistaken it is Cory that really holds the "grudge""
***** I don't know about him still having his voice. I just saw him sing, "One", on t.v. a few weeks ago at one of those PBS oldies shows and, although he CAN still sing, whatever song it is that he sang, on the record, he hits the high note and holds it for a bar or two, at this gig, he hit the note every time, but ABRUPTLY cut it off as soon as he hit it!! On the record he goes, "Oooooooooone is the loneliest number", at this gig he went, "Ooone.........is the loneliest number".
Супер 1974 года! Я был тогда молод!
Слушал по "Голосу Америки" !!
по вэфу слушал,были каждый день получасовые программы,а в субботу музыка для танцев.

Я эту группу слушал когда мне было 14 лет...через 46 лет решил еще раз вспомнить..ностальгия...

Thanks for taking me back to my senior year in High School. Man those Super 70's
Super 70s for sure man ...miss em so much
I remember this when I was a kid growing up, brought back a lot of memories, Three Dog Night are one of those bands that just keeps going!
One of my favorite songs when I 12 years just waiting impatiently to be an official teenager 😊 Brings back some serious memories 😊
Great Group who definetly deserved a place in the Hall of Fame!!!
Great song please check out Three Dog Night - It Ain't Easy Album Review
God bless you Jimmy. May you rest in God's arms
2020 y amo esta canción 💟
YO TAMBIÉN ✔🐺
Tienes muy buen gusto Deyanira! :)
Yeah, me too.
One of my favorite bands from back in the day. What the hell, Joy to the World was my high school graduation song in 1971.
I still have the 45 with this song. One of my favorites as a kid back then
Some of the best voices ever. I mean these guys could WAIL!
I remember going down to the record store when i was 13 and spending my lawn mowing money on this album. I LOVED this song so much when i was a kid. They dont make music like this anymore. The 70's were the best!!!
I'm 72 n I've listened when they 1st started
Love this Jam , take me back in time , the present sucks.
Wow, they just don't make 'em like this anymore. Skip Konte is definitley one of a kind. Great song and a great live performance.
Buenísimo. Gracias por compartirla! La había escuchado una vez cuando niño, no la encontraba y la veo acá, como quien recupera un objeto perdido en la infancia.
One of my favorite new singers in all of my 65 years! Thank You!
When Show Go On came out I was 12 and it was among my favorite tunes. Everyone in the band Three Dog Night sing and play with such passion! I later saw the band at the Carlton in Bloomington, 1983 and their performance was so incredible I had forgotten I was on a date.
When the show was over the lights came on and there sat this gorgeous woman I had taken to the show. Well, music really moves me.
