JEREMIAH WAS A BULLFROG!
« on: April 05, 2021, 01:33:13 AM »
Of course I'm talking about the band "Three Dog Night", and the song Joy To The World. I don't ever remember seeing a thread about TDN, but these guys are a really good band from the late Sixties through the Seventies.
Has anyone here ever seen them live or own their albums. They have great vocals with lots of harmonies and the musicianship is up there too. High energy fun band from back in the day.  :coolio

You can do a lot in a lifetime if you don't burn out too fast, you can make the most of the distance, first you need endurance first you've got to last....... NP

I haven't seen them live but I am old enough to have been already born when this song was released and I remember it because it was one of my all time favorites as a kid.  In fact, when I was in 2nd grade I was a latch-key kid and there was this older girl who used to check in on me before my mother got home from work and I asked her to write down the lyrics for me so I could learn them and sing along with it whenever it was played on the radio.  And it was played on the radio incessantly throughout the entire decade of '68 through '78. 


You're right about Three Dog Night.  One of the best groups to come out of that era.

First thing that came to my mind when I read the title.
For me it was Don "No Soul" Simmons.

(In the Don Simmons video, I liked when the pimp walked up the Volvo station wagon. Classic.)

Great band.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

The video clip is from Amazon Women on the Moon. A knockoff of Kentucky Fried Movie, but far better, IMO. The life-lesson is concerning Chuck Negron, who's probably more famous for exploding his dick than fronting Three Dog Night.
