Following the effervescent Roaring Twenties, the contrasting Dirty Thirties, as represented in Hard Luck In Sugar Town, was a time of failed crops and banks, repossessed farms, and massive unemployment. The decade generated a great creative response to the country’s suffering, with the brilliant banter of screen stars, and poignant, pointed song lyrics such as Cry Me a River… Sugar Blues… Comes Love… When I Get Low, I Get High… Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?... Cheek to Cheek – tunes that continue to evoke a time of wistful hopes and hard reality, transporting the audience to the Main Street of 1930s America.
