(And my bad RE #25...I had not realized that they'd become a duo! :-[ )

I'm only half-guessing on my part, Karen (which is why I said 'I think...' ;))

I'm sure I only remember seeing two of 'em in 'that' video (which made your eyes go funny, so I might be mistaken!)

You are absolutely right...

I had a look in my Top 40 book right after that and it said that one guy had left in 1985... :-\\

Karen, I missed this one on the first read through,

#22...Teach Your Children...CSN

My brother was a big Three Dog Night fan, that's why I know their music. I guess
I just figured that the album, Seven Separate Fools, was about the band members. ;D

My 'Greatest Hits' CD of theirs shows seven guys...liner notes don't say much (if at all)

I'm not entirely sure of their exact quota, but I know they had three different lead singers through their successful period...

Billboard lists them as a trio, and I'd always thought they were because of the three singers (as you said)...
