There is a house in New Orleans

Here's Frijid Pink's fuzz-drenched cover of it. Truly a monument to beautifully wretched excess.

I know I've played the Be Good Tanyas' multi-harmony folk version of it on my radio sets several times. Remind me when I get home to post it here.

Chicks sing it too.

The fairly loose DIRT interpretation. LOUD.

And at the prog-rock end, Tangerine Dream.

Thanks for the DIRT version stilcho. That brings me up to 253.

Oh and matildaben please do post that version. I don't have that one.

Hey matilda, post it when you get home, okay?

Remind me in 5 hours.

I am awed that I supplied a cover to someone who already had 252 of them.

posted by stilicho 10 January | 15:53

I'm odd to have 252 of them.
