Sidenote: Written by Laura Nyro with Cory Wells handling the lead vocal, "Eli's Coming" reached #10 on the Billboard Charts. By the time I saw Three Dog Night live at the Virginia Beach Dome (aka The Alan B. Shepherd Convention Center) in 1969, the song was a hit and featured as an almost 8 minute show closing encore. I still remember rocking hard to Floyd's relentless groove and screaming my brains out at the call and response of "She walk but she never get away", although I was only 14 years-old. Some experiences just get burned in your memory and that was a good'un.

“Call and response” Is central to western modern music.
