                            He wants to use biography and history to explain how and why country music meant so much to its audiences during the period.

                            This pervading sense of internal conflict16 is what lies at the heart of a 'theology of country music'.

                            The 1993 recording encodes place through the sound of country music.

                            Such a conflict has been an inherent part of the country music ethos from its beginning.

                            But the majority of blues and country music of the 1920s and early 1930s was left unprotected.

                            This liminality is what lies at the heart of country music.

                            The past decade has seen a spate of books about country music.

                            When country music struggles with generic change for commercial purposes, it foregrounds, for fans, listeners and scholars, why those struggles matter.
                        
                                        
                    
                            
                                    From the Cambridge English Corpus                            
                            
                        
                    
                
                                            
                            In blues and country music, echo and reverb effects were increasingly from this time onwards used to suggest shadowy, subterranean, marginal presences.
                        
                                        
                    
                            
                                    From the Cambridge English Corpus                            
                            
                        
                    
                
                                            
                            By then, another era of country music was dawning.
                        
                                        
                    
                            
                                    From the Cambridge English Corpus                            
                            
                        
                    
                
                                            
                            This assumes that mass-mediated genres like country music represent what people actually like and want, filtered through various production processes.

                            After them, nothing in country music could be the same.

                            But that handful of location recordings relocated country music.

                            It offers outsiders to country music a clear description of six subcategories of country music, as well as documentation of the traits and fortunes of each of these categories.

                            Generally speaking, he argues that country music is diametrically opposed to world music because it is contrived rather than authentic, commercial rather than political, local rather than global.
