Tell that to the Country Gentlemen who recorded the great album, "Country Songs Old and New"




Here is Dolly's excellent version of LIttle Sparrow:



And here is her country/bluegrass version of Soul Collective's "Shine:"



The line between country and bluegrass isn't always blurry, but people have always blurred the lines such as in this genre-defining classic, which starts with a Hank Williams-esque groove then turns into pure bluegrass:

Chris Ledoux - This Cowboy's Hat
Hank Williams Jr - A Country Boy Can Survive
The Highwaymen - Highwayman
Guy Clark - Dublin Blues
Countless George Strait songs
