History of Country Music
http://www.roughstock.com/history/index.html
Found an interesting link today. It is Roughstock’s History of Country Music. While it does not have too terribly much information on any one subject, there is interesting information on a variety of music types. Look under “The Beginnings” category and read about the Carter Family as well as Jimmy Rodgers. Of course the “must see” spot is the “Bill Monroe and Bluegrass” spot. There you will find not only some interesting information about Bill Monroe, but also some information about Flatt and Scruggs. This is not a huge site with tons of information, but try it out and brush up on your knowledge of the history of our beloved music and the folks that helped get it all started.
