SAM AND ELZIE. AKA – “Sam and Elsie.” AKA and see “Crooked Road.” Old-Time, Breakdown. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. The tune appears to have Mid-West origins, although popularized on the West Coast by the Canote Brothers and fiddler Vivian Williams. Vivian obtained the tune from banjoist Harley Bray's father, Monte Monroe Bray, who used used to hear it at dances around Oscaloosa, south-central Illinois, in the late 1920's. A version called "Crooked Road" can be found in the volume Dear Old Illinois (No. 51), played by Stele Elam (Brownstown, Illinois, about 30 miles northwest of Oscaloosa.
