HISTORY OF COUNTRY MUSIC
"Country" music, also called "Country & Western" or "Hillbilly", is a mixture of different musical forms, developed in the southern United States, with roots in traditional folk music of various origins, such as Irish, British and British music. French, blues, spiritual, etc.
However, "country" is a category that actually encompasses several different genres of music:
• Nashville sound (pop type, very popular in the 1960s)
• Bluegrass (fast style, based on banjo, violin and mandolin, Bill Monroe type)
• Western (traditional western and Hollywood cowboy ballads)
• Western Swing (dance music, with jazz influences, Bob Wills type)
• Bakersfield (type Buck Owens and Merle Haggard)
• Outlaw (type Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings)
• Cajun and Zydeco (with French roots)
• Oldtime (folk music pre 1930)
• and others like Honky Tonk, Appalachian, Rockabilly, Jug Band, alt.country etc…
Each style is unique in its execution, rhythm, chord structure, although there are many songs that have been adapted to different styles of country. One example is "Milk Cow Blues", an early blues by Sleepy John Estes and/or Kokomo Arnold, which has been featured by countless artists in various styles in and out of country, such as Aerosmith , Bob Wills, Willie Nelson, George Strait, Ricky Nelson, Eddie Cochran, Elvis Presley, The Kinks, and many others.
The first country song to be a big hit in the United States was "The Wreck of the Old '97" recorded in 1924 by Vernon Dalhart (also known as Marion Try Slaughter, Al Craver, Tobe Little). and Jeff Fuller). Other major early recording artists included Riley Puckett, Don Richardson, Fiddling John Carson, Ernest Stoneman, Charlie Poole and the North Carolina Ramblers, and The Skillet Lickers.
