'''SANDY RIVER BELLE [2].''' AKA and see "[[Stoney Ridge Stomp]]." Old Time, Breakdown. USA; W.Va., Virginia. G Major (Brody, Kaufman, Krassen, Phillips, Songer, Spadaro): A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (most versions): AA'BB' (Phillips). "A fairly common tune in the Galax area" (Krassen, 1973). Ken Perlman (1979) states the tune comes from the region around the small Blue Ridge town of Meadows of Dan, Patrick County, Virginia. Tom Carter and Blanton Owen (1976) state that "Sandy River Belles" is so frequently played in Patrick County that it could be considered an old time anthem for the area. Its popularity, they say, extends north through Franklin and Floyd Counties and into West Virginia. It was originally recorded for Victor Records in Bristol, Tennessee, by Dad Blackard's Moonshiners in 1927. The phrasing of the 'A' part is different in various versions, with some beginning the downbeat of phrase on what are the introductory notes of other versions.  "Sandy River Belle"  has been widely disseminated since the later 20th century "revival" of interest in old-time music.
