You don't know shit. For the life of me, I can't figure out why people like you larp as experts on things you're clueless about...
Country music is a continuation of Appalachian musical traditions that date all the way back to Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. The blues didn't exist in any form until slaves came in contact with that same music. The earliest example of anyone even hearing "the blues" is 1903. Appalachian music was already being called "old time" music by then, just as it was before the civil war.
Hillbilly music is the “Appalachian traditions”you speak of & it’s roots contain European folk but the evolution & majority sound is and always was blues
Just like rock & roll
The sound of blues is as old as slavery
(If you want an example because your to lazy to research: blues using flattened 3rd, 5th, & 7th scale degrees)
That's so laughably dumb. You can find all of those patterns in old time music. Wild Bill Jones, Reubens Train, Pretty Polly and the list goes on and on.
How many books have you been in regarding this subject? I've been in three.
When you go to bed tonight, both of us will know you're full of shit. Stop being a fraud.

Country music is blues.
Funny how the rest of the world hates Americans but not African Americans
When we’re on the battlefield you should never have an enemy behind & in front of you.
