I'm bemused by all the arguing about categories....country rock vs. southern rock vs. Texas country, etc. Yet, amidst all the arguing, nobody has mentioned what the criteria is for what catgory? What distinguishes one category of music from another. What specifically is the criteria for a song to be called "country rock"?   It all seems pretty arbitrary to me.


Is it important?   Probably not. Although it obviously is for pdq and others.
