It was the longest, deepest, and most widespread depression of the 20th century. Between 1929 and 1932, worldwide gross domestic product (GDP) fell by an estimated 15%. By comparison, worldwide GDP fell by less than 1% from 2008 to 2009 during the Great Recession. Some economies started to recover by the mid-1930s.

Devastating effects were seen in both rich and poor countries with falling personal income, prices, tax revenues, and profits.

NLCR participated in the old-time music revival, and directly influenced many later musicians.
