45 years ago Three Dog Night released Suitable For Framing

Suitable for Framing is the second studio album by American rock band Three Dog Night. The album was released on the Dunhill record label on June 11, 1969 and was the first of two albums released by the band that year.
The album contains the top 20 hit singles "Easy to Be Hard", "Eli's Coming", and "Celebrate"; the latter of which (along with the album's opening track "Feelin' Alright") featured the Chicago horn section. It is also notable for being the first album by Three Dog Night to include songs written by band members, and for its inclusion of the Elton John song "Lady Samantha," as John would not become widely known in the United States for another year.

The album was well received in North America, reaching the top 10 on the main albums charts in Canada and the United States and became certified gold by the RIAA at the end of the year.
