1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible!, May 1, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: JFK:THE KENNEDY TAPES (Audio CD)

This seems to have been edited at random. These are not speeches but sound bites and often the ending points are ridiculous. One segment actually ends with Kennedy saying "...and I quote". By one of the reputable videos and don't waste your money on this. I guess these speeches are in the public domain and Jerden Records is trying to make a quick buck. What more can I say?

This review is from: JFK:THE KENNEDY TAPES (Audio CD)

This CD is very good for it's content, being highlights of speeches given by former president John F. Kennedy. I found it very useful to the youth that did not experience that era. Considering they are highlights your able to cover many different speeches, and not loose students' attention. It will take you back to one of the most memorable presidencies. I noticed another comment on this product and felt that I should say that if you are interested in the entire speeches, remember that they are long and many of the speeches would take up one entire CD.
