A demo one of my professors used to show was:
Bob Wills (damn, that pedal steel...): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZFef08YZ6qk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZFef08YZ6qk
Chuck Berry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RAfxiyMKAk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RAfxiyMKAk
Wikipedia cites Wills' 1938 recording as the source, but it's fun to have the video. I totally believe Berry referenced Bill Monroe, I mean, Elvis' Blue Moon of Kentucky is a direct cover of a Bill Monroe tune. It's also thought that Scotty Moore's guitar style on Elvis' early singles was influenced heavily by Merle Travis' playing style ("Travis Picking" also see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8vOTKMqzw4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8vOTKMqzw4).
