Sweet South Anna River

from Banjo Hangout Top 100 Other Songs · host Alice Gerrard

Alice Gerrard, a living legend herself, wrote a song about another musical legend, Elizabeth Cotten, who she knew and whose conversation with her inspired this song, released on Alice&#39s CD Bittersweet. As I listened to the CD this song moved me to attempt it on banjo and I&#39ve had the delight of learning more about these two amazing women. As the lyrics say, &#34And won&#39t you sing to me as I take my leave, you&#39re going to miss me when I&#39m gone.&#34
