Camptown Races

I haven't posted any audio for a while, so here's a version of Camptown Races.

It was written by Stephen Foster in 1850. Foster was a pioneering proffessional songwriter who died tragically young at the age of thirty-seven after writing a body of songs which are still popular today, Oh Suzanna, Beautiful Dreamer, Swannee River etc.
