'''SALLY GROWLER.''' American, Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. A composition credited to Harry Carleton in '''Ryan’s Mammoth Collection''' (1883). Nothing is known of the elusive Harry Carleton, who contributed several tunes to Ryan’s, and the name may be a pseudonym. The title is in quotation marks in Ryan’s, and the meaning of the title is obscure. There is a particularly unattractive, Atlantic coast, bottom-dwelling fish named the Sea Raven, popularly called a “Sally Growler,” although what connection this might have is unknown. Don Meade believes the names of both the tune and the fish derive from another, now-obscure source. Source for notated version: Benny Thomasson (Texas) [Phillips].

SALLY GROWLER. American, Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. A composition credited to Harry Carleton in Ryan’s Mammoth Collection (1883). Nothing is known of the elusive Harry Carleton, who contributed several tunes to Ryan’s, and the name may be a pseudonym. The title is in quotation marks in Ryan’s, and the meaning of the title is obscure. There is a particularly unattractive Atlantic coast bottom-dwelling fish named the Sea Raven, popularly called a “Sally Growler,” although what connection this might have is unknown. Don Meade believes the names of both the tune and the fish derive from another, now-obscure source. As with several tunes from the Ryan's/Cole's collections (for decades the only large source for fiddle tunes) the hornpipe was picked up by fiddlers around the United States.
