Blue Rose is a 1956 studio album by Rosemary Clooney, accompanied by Duke Ellington and his orchestra.
Clooney was pregnant at the time of this recording, and so she dubbed her vocals in Los Angeles rather than travel to the Ellington band in New York. The final two tracks on the CD reissue, "If You Were in My Place (What Would You Do?)" and "Just A-Sittin' and A-Rockin'" were originally issued as a single and not included on the original LP issue.
