Grateful Dead Family Discography: My Little Georgia Rose

My Little Georgia Rose

Composer: Bill Monroe

My Little Georgia Rose was performed the Black Mountain Boys in January 1964. The Black Mountain Boys performed in late 1963 and early 1964. Group members included Jerry Garcia, Robert Hunter, Eric Thompson, Sandy Rothman and David Nelson.

In The Music Of Bill Monroe by Neil V. Rosenberg and Charles K. Wolfe the authors state that My Little Georgia Rose is based on an earlier Monroe song, My Rose Of Old Kentucky, which itself was possibly based on an earlier minstrel or music hall song.

There is an earlier Tin Pan Alley song called My Little Georgia Rose, written by Max. S.Witt and Robert F. Roden and published in 1899, but this is unrelated to the Bill Monroe song.
