Rest in Peace Cory Wells

AdamJoshua · 10-21-2015, 04:43 PM

Cory Wells, co-founder and one of the lead singers for Three Dog Night has died. He was 74 years old.

Danny Hutton, Wells' bandmate posted a message on the group's website saying, "It is with deep sadness and disbelief that I must report the passing of Cory Wells." The post goes on to say Cory "died unexpectedly" in New York but it's unclear how.

The group had huge success in the 1960's and '70s with hits like "Joy To The World," "Black and White," and "Mama Told Me (Not to Come)" ... on which Cory sang lead.

I really liked their music and went to one of their concerts back in the day.

May He Rest In Peace.

R.I.P., Mr. Wells.

Saw them in Raleigh about 45 years back. Celebrate was my high school class's unofficial theme song.

Sad news. Rest in peace.
