Three Dog Night - Joy To The World
Charles "Chuck" Negron (born 8 June 1942) is an American singer-songwriter, best known as one of the three lead vocalists in the band Three Dog Night, which he helped to form in 1968.
Biography
Negron was born in Manhattan to a Puerto Rican father and a British mother. He grew up in The Bronx, New York City, where he sang in local doo-wop groups and played basketball both in schoolyard pick-up games and at Taft High School; the latter talent led to his being recruited to play college basketball in California at a small junior college named Hancock College, later he played at California State University, Los Angeles.[1]
Career
He eventually joined singers Danny Hutton and Cory Wells to found Three Dog Night in 1968; that group became one of the most successful bands of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
The rock and roll lifestyle took its toll on Negron, and by the time Three Dog Night disbanded in 1976, Negron had a serious heroin addiction problem which began in the early 1970s. In July 1975, the British music magazine, NME, reported that Negron had been arrested for cocaine possession in Kentucky.[2] He overcame his addiction in September 1991 and embarked on a solo career, recording three albums: Am I Still In Your Heart (1995) "Joy to the World" (Christmas CD - 1996) and Long Road Back (1999). He also wrote a 1999 autobiography, Three Dog Nightmare. In the book, Negron attributes his recovery from heroin addiction to his turning to God in desperation, after dropping out of over 30 drug treatment facilities. His fourth solo effort was a double CD set titled Chuck Negron – Live In Concert, recorded at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas, and released on Sindrome Records, with sidemen Richard Campbell on bass guitar, Danny Mishkit on guitar, keyboards and saxophone, Frank Reina on drums and Terence Elliott on lead guitar.
Personal life
In 2006, Negron was featured on an episode of the A&E reality show, Intervention about his son, Chuckie, and grandson Noah Bryan Negron. His cousin is actor-comedian Taylor Negron. In addition to his son, he has a daughter, Annabelle Negron, with actress Kate Vernon. He also has two other daughters, Shaunti Ann Negron and Charlotte Rose Negron, who performed with him at the Key Club and at The Hollywood Bowl.
