Wow..Talk about a tough Choice !

Most people from my Generation that were around the first year Three
Dog Night came on the National Scene (with Joy to the World), called them
an upscale Pop Band. It wasn't until they had been around for a couple
of years that people started to realize this was pretty damn good band.
They did music you "just couldn't Not Like" to listen to. For me, they had
just enough of a touch of Blues to make them a group I liked to hear.
The song in this match up (Easy to be Hard) along with Out In The Country
and Eli were probably my favorite songs by TDN. Against the majority of
songs this one would be up against, I pick Three Dog Night ....HOWEVER

Procol Harum did one song that I liked, but DAMN what a song. Not only
is it the best thing they ever wrote, but it has become a Rock Icon. I would
have Whiter Shade of Pale on my list of 25 Best Rock Songs ever written.
This contest is like If Jimi Hendrix had been a one hit wonder with
All Along The Watchtower and it was in a matchup in a contest like this
with Going to California by Led Zeppelin !!

I voted for Procol Harum ....Can't vote against one of my all time favorites.

Procol Harum for me, not a big fan of that 3 Dog Night song
