Three Dog Night is an
American rock band best known for their music from 1968 to 1975. During that
time all of the band's 21 Billboard top 40 hits in America were consecutive,
three of which reached Number One. As of 2012, they are still recording and
making live appearances.
In 1972, Three Dog Night released two songs with "social commentary", each seemingly pointing the way to a better world. the unforgettable "Black and White" went all the way to number one in 1972, but a few months before that the band had a solid hit with "The Family of Man". This song was the third single release taken from the "Harmony" LP. Family went all the way to #12 on the hot 100, and to me is the better rock song.
Regardless, the song is overlooked on most oldie stations... it deserves air-play!
