Thread Name: Origin or title of House of the Rising Sun?
Subject: RE: Origin or title of House of the Rising Sun?
Hardly new. It is from Fiddlin' Arthur Smith who recorded it in 1936. Smith's original is not on the recent excellent County reissue compilation of Smith and his Dixieliners [CO-CD-3526], but it is on Various Artists 'The Early Stars of the Grand Ole Opry' Catfish KATCD203.
