Three Dog Night discography
Three Dog Night's original recordings were released by ABC Dunhill Records, except for 1983's It's A Jungle, which was released by Passport. In 1973, executives at ABC Dunhill (Jay Lasker is usually blamed) decided to discard all of their multi-track recordings and mono masters to save storage space in a cost-cutting measure.[1] As a result, all re-issues on CD have been remastered using album masters (sometimes from second or third generation tape), which often results in an inferior sound when compared to other catalogs of the era.
