You want to grok country in its fullness? Sink your roots deep into Scots-Irish traditional folk. Easiest thing to find is the connection between "Bard of Armagh" and "Streets of Laredo." Next thing is travel through Tennessee end to end; country didn't make sense to me until I road-tripped across the state. Then I kinda got it.

I've since wandered off into a different branch -- the music of the great Highland pipes. There is a bunch of pipe music that would sound well, wrung through an electric or even slide guitar.
