Interview With Chuck Negron of Three Dog Night
It seemed the band, fronted by a trio of lead singers — Negron, Cory Wells, and Danny Hutton — couldn’t be stopped. Negron says the disparate vocal stylings of each singer enabled the band to move seamlessly between genres. “When we toured, we were at the top of the food chain,” he says of having access to the best of everything. But that excess that would soon lead to his downfall. “I really got into drugs,” he says of the period after the band first broke up in 1976. “I wasn’t working, I was very wealthy, and made some bad choices.”
