Country music, also called country and western, style of American popular music that originated in rural areas of the South and West in the early 20th century. The term country and western music (later shortened to country music) was adopted by the recording industry in 1949 to replace the derogatory label hillbilly music. Ultimately, country music’s roots lie in the ballads, folk songs, and popular songs of the English, Scots, and Irish settlers of the Appalachians and other parts of the South. In the early 1920s the traditional string-band music of the Southern mountain regions began to be commercially recorded, with Fiddlin’ John Carson garnering the genre’s first hit record in 1923. The vigour and realism of the rural songs, many lyrics of which were rather impersonal narratives of tragedies pointing to a stern Calvinist moral, stood in marked contrast to the often mawkish sentimentality of much of the popular music of the day.

Perfect. Packaged for a safe journey. All the best from Cash in 1964. Now with same era vinyls from Pete Seeger, Joan Baez, and Bob Dylan it’s like being at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965. Dylan begins to do his own thing and away we go. See you at the Outlaw Music Fest with Dylan and Nelson sometime over the summer. Thanks for the memories.
