The Stock Market Crash of 1929 started 90 years ago this week; actually a four-day collapse of stock prices and the worst decline in U.S. history. Just a matter of months later, Jimmy McHugh and Dorothy Fields wrote one of the most optimistic songs ever, "On the Sunny Side of the Street". Here’s our traditional jazz rendition including the rarely-heard verse to the song (right at the beginning). Teri Parker-Brown, vocals; Chris Olson, guitar; Ralph Hepola, sousaphone.

Yes, I know it's a clichéd song, but I think it's a little masterpiece:

That song defined the Depression, and that whole era.
My favorite line:
"Half a million boots went sloggin' through hell
And I was the kid with the drum"
THAT'S poetry!

I am committed to the advancement of civil rights, minus the Marxist intimidation and thuggery of BLM.
