I credit Cash for Rockabilly and forerunner for Southern Rock.

Yeah... not really a forerunner for southern rock either. The Allman Brothers, Marshall Tucker, Elvin Bishop... even Barefoot Jerry and Charlie Daniels were really the first wave of southern rock. Then we got Skynyrd, Ozark Mountain Daredevils, .38 Special... into ZZ Top, Blackfoot, Black Oak Arkansas etc..
Not that Cash wasn't doing anything that has a common ground with southern rock but I don't think he was really a forerunner of it. He was really more country then than in his later stuff.

When 610 AM was THE country station in KC? sure.
When Taylor Swift tops the charts? Tougher call. But that speaks more to the [de]volution of country than anything.

I know it's confusing because people think that Rascall Flatts and lady Antebellum are country but they're not - they're shit! So does that answer your question? Wait I'm confused now.

His music was considered Outlaw Country for a reason. Definitely country. Definitely not Nashville.

I know he's worshipped but I think his music is garbage. It literally hurts my ears and his voice is worse than that maroon 5 guys although not similarly sounding. He absolutely destroyed Trent Reznors "hurt", no idea how ppl think that us a good rendering of it
