Leadbelly - House of Rising Sun download song

These artist influenced my favorite singer elvis presley.

ripoff of the animals...

All I see in this comment section is a sea of ignorance and dumbasses who think that playing the notes right is mastering guitar. Depresses me how such an amazing song from a time where it was a privilege to listen to this stuff has been forgotten and then warped, corrupted by naive people who don’t get the historical context and has the most recent versions of this so g trace back to him, and mark that as point a to point b. There is no point a or point b you just live in the time where a relevant artist with more music know-how than you covered this song. There is no origin.

Along with john lee hooker and muddy waters this guy was a huge talent. Would have loved to have a conversation with him

I wish they had a date for this.

Where is this audio from?

sound was excellent !

I thought Leadbelly sounded a little peculiar until I read that this was his missus singing and not him!

I live in a street called The Rising Sun.

Imagine if Leadbelly and Hank Williams collaborated together.... fuck

Awesome, it clearly was a release to sing the blues in those days.
