Civil War Songs - Yellow Rose of Texas

"The Yellow Rose of Texas," a beloved marching tune dating back to the 1836 Texas Revolution, evolved through lyric changes over the years. Popular during the Civil War, Mitch Miller's 1955 rendition with his orchestra and chorus became a million-selling hit, topping charts for six weeks (Sep-Oct). Featured on his LP The Confederacy, it remains a classic alongside versions by Johnny Desmond and Stan Freberg. Part of the 1955 Hits Archive, this recording preserves the spirit of a pivotal musical era.
