"St Louis superstar artists were recording through the Depression, when 75 cents was a lot for someone to spend for a record and bringing an artist in to record them and make a record and market it cost the companies a lot of money. During the Depression they didn't do that with just anyone and St Louis artists were recording through the Depression decade like there was no Depression. That says a lot about the talent in St Louis."
