Description
The Yellow Rose Of Texas (George) by Mitch Miller with his Orchestra and Chorus
The song’s murky history appears to begin as early as 1836 and the time of the Texas Revolution, taking it through various lyric changes over the decades. A favorite marching tune during the Civil War, “The Yellow Rose Of Texas” was recorded by Mitch Miller for his 1955 LP “The Confederacy” and was pulled for single release, resulting in the stirring million-seller that topped the charts for six weeks during Sep-Oct. See also the Johnny Desmond and Stan Freberg versions.
