BSeed Slave Songs - What Are They Called??? (28) RE: Slave Songs - What Are They Called??? 06 Nov 98

There are, of course, the spirituals, and the freedom songs--sometimes the line between them was pretty blurry: "Let My People Go" is certainly both. There are the work songs and hollers...ultimately, the variety of songs is so great that I don't think any blanket categorization is possible. Where would you put a song like "All the Pretty Horses?" --seed
