My grandfather told me he liked Western, but he didn’t like Country. Blew my mind as I’d always just heard it as Country-Western.

Have you ever watched Blues Brothers?

"What kind of music do you play here?"

"Oh we have both kinds, country and western."

I remember that but I think I just interpreted as a joke about Country Western more than an indication they used to be distinct genres.

Been replaying New Vegas, now I'm getting flashbacks to the tune of Johnny Guitar.

Yeah I think the devs accidentally included the file for Johnny Guitar twice. So if it feels like it's playing twice as often as any other song, it's because it is.

Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys have some fantastic western swing.
