Transcription: by Darryl D. Bush
"Rye Whiskey", also known as "Whiskey", is an American reel or breakdown in <br> 4/4 time and the key of G known in southwestern Pa. The parts are played ABB'.<br> This tune is no relation to the more famous and widespread triple-time tune-song<br> "Rye Whiskey".<br> Bayard (1981) considers this a version or derivation of "Sally Goodin".<br> The rhythms are different but the melody is there. The faster you play this, the<br> more the "Sally Goodin" tune emerges.<br> It was collected by Bayard from Levi Hall in Fayette County, Pa. in 1944.<br> It is printed in Bayard's Dance to the Fiddle (1981).<br>
