Country Music: How It Survived Commercialization Take a Scottish lament, an Irish reel, an English ballad. Transport it across the waters, introduce it to songs sung by African American field hands, let it steep in an isolated hollow for a few decades, and, presto, you have country music. That's the story of country, but only in part.
