History of Country & Western Music

Country music has had a loyal following for decades. Although country music's popularity has its roots in the 1920s, the genre started producing superstars in the 1950s with artists such as Hank Williams and Johnny Cash. More long-term careers were launched in the 1960s with Willie Nelson and Dolly Parton. Here are a few links to country playlists. This section will expand soon to include more eras.
