The Seventeen Wheels Acoustic Quartet performing Sail Away Ladies / Little Liza Jane.
I first heard Sail Away Ladies as a solo fiddle tune on The Anthology of American Folk Music. The tune is also known as Sally Ann. Both phrases fit different phrases in the tune.
Li'l Liza Jane was first published as a set of lyrics in 1905 and a complete song in 1916 but there are reports of the song being sung by slaves in Louisiana before the Civil War.
