"Ebenezer", also known as "West Virginia Farewell" or "West Virginia Highway" is an American reel in G Major. The parts are played AABB. It is known in West Virginia and southwestern Virginia.
Glen Lyn, Virginia fiddler Henry Reed recorded it for Alan Jabbour twice in the 1960's, although he did not have a name for it the first time, on the second occasion he called it "Alabama Gals Give the Fiddler a Dram".
Alan Jabbour remarks that The Hollow Rock String Band learned Henry Reed's version, but played and recorded it under the Brewer/Stoneman title "West Virginia Highway".
I probably learned this at Banjo Camp or from John Letscher.
