Early years The band started with three lead vocalists — Danny Hutton, Chuck Negron, and Cory Wells — who landed a recording contract with Dunhill Records in Los Angeles. They made some early recordings with Beach Boys producer, composer, vocalist, and instrumentalist Brian Wilson, and initially went by the name Redwood. Shortly after changing the band's name, the vocalists hired a group of backing musicians — Michael Allsup on guitar, Floyd Sneed on drums, Joe Schermie (from the Cory Wells Blues Band) on bass, and Jimmy Greenspoon on keyboards — and soon became one of the most successful bands of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Joe Schermie quit in 1973 and was replaced by Jack Ryland. The band then became an eight-piece with the induction of another keyboards player, Skip Konte. By now Negron had become the principal vocalist, and a dissatisfied Hutton left the group in 1976; the group disbanded the following year, at least partly due to Negron's drug addiction problem. Reunion In the mid-1980s, Three Dog Night began appearing again and performed "In My Heart" for Robotech: The Movie in 1986. As of 2006, they are touring actively. The current lineup features founding members Wells and Hutton on lead vocals, keyboardist Greenspoon and guitarist Allsup, with new members Paul Kingery on bass & vocals and Pat Bautz on drums. http://www.answers.com/topic/three-dog-night Mar 20 07, 11:38 AM
