What is the difference between Hank Jr, DAC, Waylon, and Southern Rock?

I wasn't raised on it. Not hating, but I did not listen to SR growing up.

“I never saw Lynyrd Skynyrd… but I sure saw Molly Hatchet
…With 38 Special and the Johnny Van Zant Band.”

The only song I liked by Skynyrd was Sweet Home Alabama.

Not a darn thing if you go back far enough.
Jazz
Blues
Rock & Roll
Country
All have their roots in Southern Gospel and Bluegrass music in the South.
Here is possibly my favorite LS tune (which I consider a cornerstone of Southern Rock) and you can clearly see the roots of the musical stylings.
If not, listen to the Medlock boys intros by the old man "Shorty" Medlocke. Kids todays don't know their butt from a hole in the ground when it comes to their heritage, history, and true roots. I hate the 1980 election for allowing corporate to wipe our actual musical styles (for those not in the know), mountain aka hill aka bluegrass music is straight from 16th and 17th century Europe in the hollers of the earliest settlers and unbroken heading into the First World War in a time in Merica meant travel more than a few miles from home was for the VERY wealthy or just a tiny minority of the population.

I love all those genres with old blues and country being my favorites. I'm guessing they came together with Jimmy Rodgers.
Bill Monroe was ahead of his time. The guitar on Mule Skinner Blues had a drive to it.
It's obvious SR had a big influence on atists I mentioned above. I'm not sure why anyone would get upset by it.

I like a few country songs but dont have any country stations saved in any of my trucks and tractors.

Nope, John Jacob Niles who came and sang at out house on Sundays and as a youth I picked wild berries at the the farm of him and his wife. He served in WW I and survived tho being given up for dead for days in the "No Mans Zone" he was a the first to visit the hollers and listen to, then reproduce that music for the city mice who had lost it in the past. He also wrote / recited poetry and made his own dulcimers by hand.
Wik for Johnny
The Wik says Boot Hill Farm but I remember it as being Bramble Farm as it was wild as a March Hare and full of thickets. No "estate" by any means it was a simple main house that looked older than old but full of beautiful and powerful memories. Before he passed I sat with Henry Faulker as he painted the last work on some land on the way to Bramble. I think he was killed by a drunk driver the next day or two.
So much legacy and history in the South that will all be lost "like tears in rain" when my generation are taking the dirt nap and youth who could care less, but should.

No surprising, old / true country is no longer played. Modern country is not true country.

The few country songs I like are from the 70's and 80's.

I had never listened to him. Thanks for the info. It is a shame that the things of our past are lost. Hopefully, someone will enjoy it and pass it down to the next generation.
Are you a musician? I try to play the guitar and piano, but I'm not very good at either.

The only stations I have saved are gospel.

I am the freak of nature nerd with no musical ability, only the ability to appreciate it.
My grandmother was European and a brilliant opera singer. Everybody else in both bloodlines have creative abilities in art, voice, media, or instruments. Some have multiple talents in several of them. I was the math / science nerd but no attached musical ability attached.
