Three Dog Night, an American rock band formed in 1967, reached the pinnacle of fame in the late 1960s and early 1970s with their exuberant blend of rock, pop, and R&B. The group, consisting of vocalists Danny Hutton, Cory Wells, and Chuck Negron, became known for their dynamic vocal harmonies and captivating live performances. Throughout their career, Three Dog Night earned a reputation for being adept at choosing and recording songs by new, upcoming artists, thereby helping to introduce those artists to a wider audience.

The band enjoyed significant success with 21 consecutive top 40 hits, including three No. 1 singles on the Billboard charts—"Mama Told Me Not to Come," "Joy to the World," and "Black and White." Their rendition of "One," penned by Harry Nilsson, became their first top-5 hit and established them as a force on the music scene. Other hits like "An Old Fashioned Love Song" and "Eli's Coming" further cemented their status as hitmakers. The 1975 compilation album, "Celebrate: The Three Dog Night Story, 1965–1975," encapsulates the band's peak years, showcasing the energy and song-craft that made them household names and left an indelible mark on the era's soundscape. Even after their heyday, the band continued to influence music and maintain a loyal fan base with their timeless records and continual touring.
