I have heard of "House of the Rising Sun." I just didn't realize that it was, in fact, a folk ballad, and not traced originally to one band or another. I checked it out on Wikipedia because I was about to write it down as an Animals cover, and decided to do some research before I wrote it that way. I was similarly suprised to find out some years ago that "Gallows Pole" by Led Zeppelin has its roots in an English folk ballad. At any rate, thanks for the heads up on Cat Power's version.
What album does CCR's version appear on? I am tracking their biggest hits as "Proud Mary," "Bad Moon Rising," "Green River," "Travelin' Band," and "Looking Out My Back Door" all of which peaked at no. 2 on the charts. I'm not finding "House of the Rising Sun" on any of their discs and Wikipedia doesn't list them as a band that covered the song. Let us know...
