A while ago I was talking with some colleagues about Jimi Hendrix and his adventures in England. During the interview, our attention was focused on The Animals' manager and bassist, Chas Chandler. He is probably best known for his incredible cover of Eric Burdon and Co.'s most famous song, "Eastern House." The reason I mention this above is because in this small meeting important information came up that was not considered in the topic he was discussing. Today I want to share this with you and add some information that I think is very interesting.
First, where is Sunrise House? As the text of the first paragraph indicates, it is the home of New Orleans, a city in southeastern Louisiana in the Mississippi River delta and home to many blues, folk, and jazz musicians. There was a state. The United States, the Confederate States of America, already knows the racist southerners, where you can find cotton plantations and the birthplace of southern rock. As for the exact location of this unit, there is no clear information about its location and it is not even known if it is real or fictitious. Of course, the city has cafes, hotels, brothels, nightclubs, etc. Unfortunately, the inspiration behind the theme also remains a mystery.
Sunrise House appeared on none other than Bob Dylan's debut album that year, which was inspired by a cover by Dave Van Ronk, an important American folk musician of the '60s. In 1964, The Animals added another rock touch to the song. , choosing her to close a series of shows with Chuck Berry. What is worth noting is that this song became a huge hit for the group led by Eric Burdon, sweeping all the charts.
As the years passed, more versions of "House of the Sun" appeared, including instrumentals by Jodie Miller, Geordie, Tin Lizzy and Dolly Parton. Another interesting fact is that there is a Spanish version, one of the first, thanks to Los Speakers of Columbia, who published a Spanish version in 1965-66. Mexico cannot be left behind and the sorceress Javier Batiz has her own version of the House of the Rising Sun.
