I can believe that. One great thing about this song is that it immediately connects, from the first bar.

But rumor has it....when Dylan heard the Animals version while driving his car...he told himself that he was going to start using electrical instruments.

Loved them , but they wrote less than a handful of original tunes until the band changed members and became Eric Burdon and The Animals when they wrote a handful or two . Can’t compare to The Kinks , Stones , Beatles .

What would karaoke be without The House of the Rising Sun?

It was a 78.

Maybe a 45?

A 45 at 78 speed would make it screechy, like some of the critics, above.
