Members were guitarist Dan Hamilton, bassist Joe Frank Carollo, and drummer Tommy Reynolds. BiographyDan Hamilton, Joe Frank Carollo, and Tommy Reynolds began their careers as session musicians. They met when they took part in a studio instrumental group called the T-Bones. They recorded with the T-Bones from 1964 to 1966. Inspired by the AM rock music of Three Dog Night, the three men quit their jobs as studio musicians at the turn of the decade to form their own band. The band signed with Dunhill Records in 1970. In 1971, their first two singles "Annabella" and "Daisy Mae" were minor hits, but their third single "Don't Pull Your Love (Out)" was an instant smash climbing up to US #4 and going gold. A series of follow-up singles proved to be unsuccessful. In 1973, Reynolds left the band to join another band called Shango. Although the remaining two members found a replacement in Alan Dennison, they did not even change their group name! It is believed that the members thought it would be foolish to jeopardize the small recognition that the struggling band had had. The trio continued to record and perform with very little success. Soon, they left Dunhill and signed with Playboy Records in the mid-seventies. In 1975, they had their first US Top 40 hit in four years - a soft-rock ballad called "Fallin' in Love"; this song proved to be even bigger than their last Top 40 hit, reaching US #1, and became their first (and only) song to chart in the UK; it also gave them their second gold record. The next year, the band decided to take a chance and changed their group name to Hamilton, Joe Frank & Dennison. A few minor singles followed (including "Winners and Losers"), but in 1976, the trio disbanded and went their separate ways. Carollo and Dennison faded into the category of "Where are they now?", but Hamilton continued writing songs with his wife, Ann, throughout the eighties. He succumbed to a stroke on December 23, 1994 (age 48). DiscographyAlbums
