Free Music Notes for Great Moments of the 20th CenturyFree Music Review: Fascinating, even if you don't think it will be Hit: 5 Stars
I was first introduced to this collection in excerpts heard on NPR. They were so intriguing that I had to hear the whole thing. Even if you are not a history buff, the moments captured here will make you pause. From well known speechs and world events to odd and unusual history moments that you never learned in school, I found each one interesting and even(dare I say it!)educational. Also great conversaton starters, especially if you have older friends and relatives . You may be suprised and touched by the memories that this collection can bring up. I'm getting it for my dad, and can seriously say that I'm really looking forward to the family listening to it and discussing it together. A great gift for the holidays.
