Roaring Twenties
In music, the three sounds were jazz, jazz, and jazz. The Jazz Age came about with artists like Bessie Smith and Duke Ellington. Youth ruled everything. From the young styles of dress to the latest celebrities. If it was young, it was the thing.
“It was the age of prohibition, it was the age of prosperity, and it was the age of downfall. It was the age of everything”
