4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent Album, September 25, 2001
This is my favorite Three Dog Night album. It contains some of the best recordings of their career. Of course the hits are here "Never Been To Spain", "Family Of Man" and "An Old Fashioned Love Song" but there are others that are amazing also. Just give a listen to their remake of Stevie Wonder's "Never Dreamed You'd Leave In Summer" and Marvin Gaye's "You". I also think "My Impersonal Life" is one of their best songs. Lots of gems here that didn't wind up on their original Greatest Hits compilation. Most of the songs on this album do appear on their Anthology. Danny Hutton, Cory Wells, Chuck Negron and the band were jamming on this one.

Still A Good Album, Even After 30 Years!, March 14, 2001
Coming off the heels of both their highly successful "Naturally" and "Golden Bisquits" LP's, comes the equally gold(en) "Harmony". This has got to be one of Three Dog Night's best three albums, along with the aforementioned "Naturally" and "Seven Separate Fools". As you will hear for yourself, "Harmony" doesn't fail to disappoint, for this album contains the hits "Never Been To Spain", as written by the late Hoyt Axton (who was a fishing buddy of TDN member/singer Cory Wells), the environmentally-conscious "The Family Of Man", as co-written by Paul Williams, as well as "An Old Fashioned Love Song", also written by Paul (TDN fans, you must also hear the 45 version of "An Old Fashioned Love Song" from the double-CD "Celebrate" collection, as it's something to absolutely die for!). The non-singles featured on "Harmony" are just as good, if not better. The guys let it all hang out on "Jam", while they ease into a soulful groove on a song previously done by the late Marvin Gaye, titled "You". Another Motown legend, Stevie Wonder, contributes a composition of his own titled "Never Dreamed You'd Leave Me In Summer". Talk about one of the most prolific songwriters of our time, as Joni Mitchell adds "Night In The City" to the mix, as well. Even a childhood friend of TDN's Danny Hutton gets into the songwriting act, as a song written by Terry Furlong, titled "My Impersonal Life", somehow finds its way here. There's a price to be paid for all this wonderful music, as Three Dog Night is found guilty of "overexcessive pleasure", as they commit "Murder In My Heart For The Judge". Ah, but the sentence doesn't last long, for, as an appeal, Chuck Negron recites a magnificent poem to the judge, titled: "Mistakes And Illusions", thus our boys are set free from their so-called "crime". Alas, TDN found "Peace Of Mind" at last! To get yours (Peace Of Mind, that is), just purchase a copy of "Harmony" right now!

'Harmony' abounds here!, June 12, 2000
Three Dog Night was the hottest thing going between 1969 and 1974, and this CD is in the midst of that hotstreak. This CD contains some wonerful ballads (An Old Fashioned Love Song, Never Dreamed You'd Leave Me In Summer) along with some nice rockers (The Family Of Man, Never Been To Spain, Jam, Murder In My Heart For The Judge) and good poetic vibes from Intro/Poem: Mistakes And Illusions:Peace Of Mind-proving the 'Dogs can be both sentimental and versatile here. A must have CD!
