Grateful Dead Family Discography: Borneo

Borneo

Composer: Walter Donaldson

Borneo was performed by Mother McCree's Uptown Jug Champions in 1964.

Bix Beiderbecke recorded Borneo with the Frankie Trumabauer Orchestra. It is this recording that appears on subsequent Bix Beiderbecke collections. For some reason their original release of the song in the UK was credited to The Goofus Five and their Orchestra.

Walter Donaldson wrote many hit songs in the early decades of the 20th century including Yes Sir That's My Baby, My Blue Heaven, You're Driving Me Crazy, My Baby Just Cares For Me, Makin' Whoopee, Carolina In The Morning and Love Me Or Leave Me.
