Title: Rest in Peace Cory Wells
Post by: mtaber on October 21, 2015, 02:37:54 PM
Cory Wells, of Three Dog Night fame, passed away sometime last night.  Details not available as to cause of death, but he was from Buffalo, NY (an hour from me) and they've been doing a tribute to him on the radio.  One of his nieces called in and said he died peacefully at home with family at his side.  She raved about what a great family man he was.  Condolences to those who knew him.

Of course was part of the Brian Wilson produced Redwood that became Three Dog Night.  Great voice, sang lead on a lot of their #1's.  They were my favorite band in 8th grade.

And Chuck Negron outlived him.  Who woulda thunk?  Rest in peace....

About a week or so ago I was reading about how several Three Dog Night shows had been canceled due to Cory having severe back pain, and something told me that he should have been looked at by a doctor.
