“Try A Little Tenderness” (Three Dog Night) #29 4/19/1969

The first Top 40 record for Three Dog Night. This remake of the Otis Redding classic featured Cory Wells on lead vocals and became a mainstay of their concerts. They were known to lengthen the song at the gigs, sometimes making it a 15 or 20 minute excursion. Their next record defined their career.

Redding's version wasn't the original either.
This song goes all the way back to the 1930s.
