I saw Three Dog Night tonight and they were AWESOME. Those old timers can still rock. I just wish they did Eli. They did not.

Is this their Medicare tour?

The man that wrote Never been to Spain and Joy to the world was a good singer/song writter himself. Hoyt Axton. I liked Della and the dealer and several others he wrote and sang.

Thanks for mentioning Hoyt Axton! He is one of my favorite song writers along with Townes Van Zandt and a bunch of others. Here is Hoyt Axton singing Poncho and Lefty, written by Van Zandt.

Saw them many years ago, great show..

I have seen 3 Dog Night in concert 3 times. The first time was in 1970 at the University of Alabama and the last time was about 4 years ago. Yeah, they can still do it. Awesome group.

[JaguarXKE]

It was 40-41 years ago. Details fade with time, LOL.

Ain't that the truth!

Add the Hollies to that list! Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress

Believe it or not, that very song is on the mp3 playlist I was listening to earlier this AM. "Sure As I'm Sitting Here" is by Three Dog Night

Here's a screen cap of the list:

I saw them in 1971 on a bill with Rod Stewart and Steppenwolf. As far as high notes go, I recently saw The Zombies...their lead singer came right out and hit the high notes on “I Love You.” It was a beautiful thing!

Did you ever see The Dead live? :)

[sand lake bar]

No, but I saw Grace Slick and Marty Ballin. :-)

My dog is named Eli

Between 92 and 96 I saw and spoke to an "Eli" on a daily basis.

Today... People with no talent...Freakin’ rappers....

It's not just Rap. Just about all the music of the past 20 or so years is horrible. But, I agree, Rap is by far the worst of it. Even the TV shows and cartoons are awful today.

[Errant]

Wow, you have really great taste in music!

I'd move Proud Mary closer to the top of your CCR list. :)

Where's Neil Diamond???

Irwindale Speedway in Southern Ca.

Was that Colin Blunstone? He did some vocals for the Alan Parsons Project, that are some of my favorite songs by them ("The Eagle Will Rise Again", "Old and Wise")

And he also invented the "Bathroom Buddy" ;)
