There are a few versions of "Sally..." played in G printed in the more available fiddle tune books. One version I like, "Black Sally Goodin" was played by black fiddler Bill Caton from Missouri (maybe where Gene got it?) and can be found in the first edition of R.P. Christeson's "Old-Time Fiddler's Repertory".
