Non-Fiction Biography
From 1968 through the early 1970s, Three Dog Night was one
of the most popular rock bands in the world. With his
sweet, soulful sound, Chuck Negron guided the group through
eighteen consecutive Top Twenty hits: three hit the #1
spot, including ``Joy to the World,'' and eleven broke into
the Top Ten. But while Three Dog Night was hitting the high
notes of critical and commercial success, Negron was
sinking into the darkness of drug addiction. The singer's
downward spiral continued for several years, and after the
band's thirteenth album failed to go gold in 1975, they
called it quits. For Negron, who was supporting a $2,000 a
day drug habit, the descent was fast and long-lasting,
encompassing two decades of horrendous drug abuse and
terrifying near-death experiences. That he survived the
ordeal at all is a miracle; that he today has a new
foothold on life and devotes a great portion of his time to
helping others avoid the pitfalls of drug abuse is an
inspiration.Three Dog Nightmare graphically traces the life
and times of Bronx-bred Chuck Negron, who used his talent
on the basketball court to gain a college scholarship, and
turned his gift for singing into an unforgettable career.
For the first time, Negron tells his full story, hoping
that it will teach others the life lessons he had to learn
the hard way.
