"House of the Rising Sun" from The Animal's "The Animals" album (1964).
Ahhhh a tiny little break from all the prog to appreciate a golden oldie. Allll the way over from 1964! Jeez!
But eh, I know that this song has been covered before on KZbin, with tabs! But most of those videos are a different version. It's typically the same song you see in the clip, but without the outro. Anyway, the song itself is pretty straightforward. This song was not recorded in stereo which is already pretty bad. Now I might be wrong about this, but it seems like they mirror the track to make it stereo. But that's also the reason why it's slightly out of tune. Or they were just too lazy to tune. One or the other.
Some important information that nobody is going to read.
Tuning: E-A-D-G
Artist: The Animals
Bassist: Chas Chandler
Album: The Animals (1964)
Song: HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN
Bass: Warwick GPS Corvette 5A Ash

[@LeoBassCovers2]

To clarify: THIS SONG IS NOT IN 3/4. IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE 6/8. Though it's almost the same thing, 6/8 has a different feeling. I actually messed up by using an online tab as reference and then later on I never checked the time signature for some reason.

[@Splatook]

Dont worry master !

[@abrigospardos]

Exactly! Both have the same number of eighth notes.The difference lies in how the eighth notes are grouped (into three pairs of eighth notes for 3/4 time, but into two groups of three eighth notes for 6/8 time).

[@Mangoman267]

Can't tell the difference

[@prat751]

this made me count, & ive only just realised it’s not in 4/4. i can’t hear the difference, but when i count i can tell it only just matches after 12 counts

[@TheMarlinspike]

Almost the same thing, like 2 is almost the same as 3 :)

[@krisfranks9423]

When I was a kid I asked for my first guitar. My mom said she’d get me one as long as I learned this song. Many a hard night was spent at age 12 but I learned it and momma was proud. Thanks for the cover and nostalgia.

[@LeoBassCovers2]

That's such a great deal! I'm glad she did that

[@lilyblossom3409]

Its strange yet refreshing to see such a simple bass part on this channel. Keep up the great work dude!

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Thanks, will do!

[@iTheDevil]

that's pretty much the only song I learned to some special level when if somebody wakes me up at night and gives me a guitar to play it I will do it, no rehearsal or chord remembering needed. I really like the song and it was one of the first ones I learnt to play on guitar, then on bass.

When it comes to bass, I'm still in the learning phase, but I've always loved the bass line in this song and your video with the tabs has helped tremendously! BTW, I just turned 60. Thank You!

[@drew-shourd]

Nice video, thanx for making it, sweet bass too bro. I am a retired professional drummer of close to 40 years and at 57, and after 20+ surgeries mostly on both feet and lower back (and each thumb) I bought a bass. A cheapy, then swapped out the tuners, bridge, strings, knobs...everything but the electronics, but I will soon. My plucking hand (right) is kickin' butt only after a couple months but it's my fretting hand (the ugly stepchild...) that is road blocking me, so I appreciate videos like this one. 🙏🎸❤ Got some drum videos up (of course) and one bass video, super easy tune played all wrong, but it's a start!!

[@LeoBassCovers2]

A pleasure! And trust me, keep playing the song and just like drumming, it will be muscle memory before you know it. If you can play every day, it'll really benefit your overal playing. Good luck!

Thanks for doing these tutorials. They are really helpful for a new bass player. One comment though... I'm pretty sure that this song should be in 6/8 time and not 3/4 time.

[@LeoBassCovers2]

No problem! And yeah, you're right. Should be 6/8.

[@Belchmaster41]

I'm pretty sure most songs used the common signature of 4/4 (not to get folks confused with April 4th)

[@redmorningglory1821]

My dad woke up to this at 4 in the morning today he recognized it emedintly

[@mrbizarre1778]

I think that at 4:26 min the note N ° 6 could be removed and in the part of the note N ° 4 it could be lengthened with a double 4. I tried it and well, I think I liked how it sounded. It is not to criticize, in fact I really liked the video, thanks to you, I was able to learn the theme on my bass and I wanted to try it

[@LeoBassCovers2]

Oh it definitely could be. It's quite a weird chord and it really is not easy to hear what he played there. I think most ascends are fine there as long as it ends with the 7th fret since it's a build-up. I'm just glad that I included the outro cause a lot of people sort of like end it with a fade. Thank you :)

[@FunkInTheTrunk]

Meh, not really. Think ab how many people know and listen to this song on a daily basis compared to Tool. Also this is a good tutorial song for beginner bassists, so overall more people prob looking it up in the search bars. However I think Leo should get a lot more views and credit because accurate tabs aren’t always the easiest to come by, especially on all the cool songs he plays, so props to his whole channel

[@LeoBassCovers2]

I would have to agree there. Tool is big, but they won't beat such classics. For me it's weird that this blew up since I just felt like covering a song that I listen to that isn't prog. But that joke upload turned into the most viewed video on the channel..
