first trons in rock continued

Hi folks
   Three Dog Night didn't use the Chamberlin til their "mid-period" 
when Skip Konte join the group as second keyboardist and Chamberlin 
maestro.(He was in the previously mentioned BLUES IMAGE).The 
Chamberlin with me in the photo section of this group is actually the 
one he used(an M-4)...my band was recording at IAM Studio in 
Irvine,CA at the time(1980-ish) and Skip was the owner/manager.There 
also was an interesting keyboard collection stored in the studio 
warehouse including a Chamberlin 200(looked like something from your 
grandmother's house)and one of Harry's Riviera's complete with 
footpedals,as well as Stevie Wonder's Yamaha GX-1 monster.

Any idea at which point he joined them?

I've heard rumours that Stevie used an M4 too, at some point.
