[78-L] Another song with the "wrong title"

[David Lennick]

Speaking of "Old Folks At Home" (the correct title, as far as I know), I just 
found Harry C. Browne on Columbia A2015 singing "Gwine To Run All Night", 
subtitled "Doo-dah Song". Credit given to Stephen Foster, but nary a mention of 
De Camptown Races. (Flip side is Roll Out! Heave Dat Cotton! Must have been a 
fun record on slave whuppin' night.)
