Subject: 3 DOG NIGHT

I recently watched a video of 3 Dog Night on PBS Soundstage 1975 and
was amazed at the amount of Chamberlin that was featured on just
about every song-played by Skip Konte of Blues Image fame(in full
wizard regaila).He was using the same M4 model I posted a picture of
in the Photos section here in the group. A friend of mine copied it
to DVDR from Japanese laser disc and the sound and pic quality was
great.The Chamberlin tones sounded very Pinder-y.Skip used:
violins,flute,cellos,brasses,clarinet,vibes,harpsichord(?),male and
female voices, oboe and sound efx(crowd laughs and creaking door
slamming) and maybe organ
There were some nice shots of Skip's fingers at the Chamby
