When we said they were successful, we certainly meant it. With twenty one top forty hits (eleven of which went top ten) to their credit they were all over the charts. With a three voice attack, along with intricate arrangements their slick production values were tailor made for radio play. Ironically, this could also be their biggest obstacle. They were painted by some as too commercial and thus were devoid of the rebelliousness of the Rock and Roll Spirit. Their success gives them a shot, but it is just a remote one at this point.

The band prevailed by recording cover tunes penned by new and gifted songwriters while executing soulful & hip musical harmonies and delivering dynamic stage performances . Three Dog Night became one of the most commercially successful rock/pop groups of all-time and helped to launch the careers of countless music artists that would eventually become legendary. Some of Three Dog Night’s opening acts were …Rod Stewart, Aerosmith, ELO, Uriah Heep and co-headlinin g with Led Zeppelin!!
What more needs to be said they should be inducted!!
