G Major (Brody, Titon): A Major (Kuntz): D Major (Johnson). Standard tuning (fiddle). ABB (Johnson): AABB (Brody, Kuntz, Phillips, Titon). "Sally Ann [3]" is a well-known and widely disseminated tune related to "[[Sail Away Ladies]]" and "[[Great Big Taters in Sandy Land]].” It is less closely related to the Round Peak “[[Sally Ann (2)]]." Jeff Titon (2001) states the second strain of the tune is cognate with the low part of “[[Pateroller Song (The)]]”/“[[Run Johnny Run (1)]]” family of tunes, and may have an African-American origin. John and Alan Lomax published a song version called “Sandy Lan” in their '''American Folksongs and Ballads''' (1934), and a version of the song was printed in the '''Journal of American Folklore''' in 1915, and the title "Sally Ann" may possibly have resulted from a miss-hearing or corruption of "Sandy Land." John McCutcheon notes it could easily be called "Scott County's Anthem" (Virginia) and was Beachard Smith's (1911-1981) signature tune. | ||
