These senior artists lived through those tragic days in 1963 and that experience can be sensed in their poignant and memorable performances.

Nashville Producer and two time Grammy winner J. Aaron Brown says, "My lifelong friend Dan Jewell and his talented creative team have recorded a very sensitive and accurate account of the events surrounding the life and death of President John F. Kennedy. A folksy blend of songs and narrations that will touch the hearts of all who experienced that tragic day in November 1963. This documentation is well presented in the new 'JFK 50 Memorial Album,' a must for history buffs and JFK fans around the world."

The initial track on the album is Barnes' rendition of the chilling "The End of November, 1963," which evokes the fear and disillusionment people felt when they heard the news that JFK had been assassinated. "Kennedy's death," says Barnes, "was a powerful international event, but back then it seemed to touch all of us personally." Besides the initial track, Barnes sings "When the News Came Through," "The Golden Cup," "The Day Jack Kennedy Died," "I Got My Dreams Just Like You, "He Was Born to Live," and

    Here he comes! Heading passed the Texas Book Depository. Bang, bang, bang, bang. Our thirty-fifth president John F. Kennedy was shot, and died instantly. How many shooters were there? How many shots were there really? Who was this Lee Harvey Oswald? Why did Jack Ruby kill Oswald? These are the mysteries of JFK’s assassination. There are many conspiracies to his assassination, like the official Warren Commission report of 1964. I have a theory there were multiple shooters. There were many shooters, because of how many shots there were, and the autopsy photos of JFK and the bullet wounds in the governor. This will all tie into my conspiracy.…

    The film ‘JFK’, directed by Oliver Stone, explores the exploits of the heroic Jim Garrison and his controversial investigation into the assassination of the president John F. Kennedy in 1963. Oliver Stone’s film ‘JFK’ presents a particular view and interpretation of the circumstances surrounding the assassination. The film insinuates that there was a large conspiracy involving the CIA, FBI, the military-industrial complex, anti-Castro Cubans, the Dallas Police and the mafia. The film provides limited usefulness to a historian studying the assassination of the late President Kennedy.…

    To achieve this goal, Kennedy establishes pathos when he appeals to the emotional side of those who had lost loved ones by telling them, “The graces of young Americans who answered the call of service surround the globe.” This quote serves to inspire the nation to stand up and make them realize that those honorable deaths have not been in vain with actions that will make this country more successful than any other country again.…

    On the day November 22, 1963 I was waiting in the streets of Dallas, Texas. I remember I was on Main Street at Daley Plaza in Dallas. I had been waiting there for almost two hours and I had the best spot to see Mr. and Mrs. Kennedy roll down the street waving to the crowd. I knew that Kennedy was coming to Texas because we were a major state that he had to win in order to have a good chance of re-election. In those two hours I heard that Kennedy was giving a speech outside of his hotel in Fort Worth and that he was going to take a plane and be arriving shortly. All I remember seeing right before the Kennedys arrived was that there were thousands of people in the streets just waiting to get a glimpse of the president. I also remember people…

    Killing Kennedy: The End of Camelot is a 2012 non-fiction book by Bill O'Reilly and Martin Dugard. According to a “60 Minutes”/Vanity Fair poll released on October 10, 2012, 7 percent of Americans think Lee Harvey Oswald is the person who assassinated Abraham Lincoln. This was one of the reasons that Bill O'Reilly wrote Killing Kennedy with the help of Martin Dugard. He wanted to familiarize the public about John Fitzgerald Kennedy's legacy. The book recalls the surge and decline of John F. Kennedy, as he was considered to be one of the most influential and well-loved presidents in American history.

    On November 22, 1963, president John F. Kennedy was in Dallas, Texas for a speech at the Dealey Plaza. On his way there, in an open convertible, instead of going down Dallas’ Main St., which they planned to, they decided to go down Elm St. where there were more buildings and a better crowd view. On going down Elm St. now, there were three shots. Two of the shots hit the president, one in the neck and one in the head, and the third shot hit the governor. Ninety seconds after the shots, officers rushed into the Texas School Book Depository to find a man named Lee Harvey Oswald eating his lunch very calmly on the second floor and a sniper rifle on the sixth floor. Lee Harvey Oswald worked at the school book depository and was arrested and put…

    “Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names” (John F. Kennedy). John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963. He was riding in an open-top convertible with the governor of Texas, John Connally in a parade being held in Dallas. When Kennedy and Connally’s car came to a point in the parade where the Texas Book Depository was, Kennedy was shot. He was shot twice, once in the back of the neck, which also critically injured Connally, and once on the side of the head. The shooter was an ex-marine named Lee Harvey Oswald. After the shooting, Lyndon B. Johnson, now the president, issued the Warren Commission to look into the assassination of Kennedy. With much investigation and the collection of evidence from witnesses, the commission concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in the assassination of John F. Kennedy, and they were correct in doing so.…

    As I have shown, the 1960s is a distinguished decade that transformed America, and overall society in an immense amount of ways. Firstly, the sixties consisted of fashion that was bi-polar in just about every way and innovatively expressed the emotions of individuals. Secondly, the memorable sports events and renowned players established a great foundation for the decade. Thirdly, the unforgettable fight for civil rights with the esteemed Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, and the assassination of John F. Kennedy were ground-breaking, distressed events. Fourthly, the effect on family values and culture was preeminent during the decade. Fifthly, music was transformed and sculptured during the decade.

    Kennedy starts off announcing Martin Luther King, Jr.’s death. He starts with the pathos efforts and creates empathy. He says that he relates to what the audience is feeling by telling them about his brother’s death. He gives the audience a choice. “ We can move in that direction as a country, in greater polarization- black people amongst blacks, and white amongst whites, filled with hatred toward one another. Or we can make an effort, as Martin Luther King did, to understand, and to comprehend , and replace that violence, that stain of bloodshed that has spread across our land, with an effort to understand, compassion, and love.” He says instead of being mad at each and start a war, let the differences of the two populations go away. Get together and carry out Martin Luther King, Jr.’ s legacy. Robert F. Kennedy tells the people in the United States that they need to make an effort to go beyond the difficult times. This speech evokes the audience to feel compassion and…

    The Presidents of the 60's

    On November 22, 1963, when he was hardly past his first thousand days in office, John F. Kennedy was killed by an assassin's bullets as his car wound through Dallas, Texas. Kennedy was the youngest man elected President; he was the youngest to die. Of Irish descent, he was born in Brookline, Massachusetts, on May 29, 1917. Graduating from Harvard in 1940, he entered the Navy. In 1943, when his PT boat was rammed and sunk by a Japanese destroyer, Kennedy, despite grave injuries, led the survivors through perilous waters to safety. Back from the war, he became a Democratic Congressman from the Boston area, advancing in 1953 to the Senate. He married Jacqueline Bouvier on September 12, 1953. In 1955, while recuperating from a military operation, he wrote Profiles in Courage, which won the Pulitzer Prize in history. In 1956 Kennedy almost gained the Democratic nomination for Vice President, and four years later was a first-ballot nominee for President. Millions watched his television debates with the Republican candidate, Richard M. Nixon. Winning by a narrow margin in the popular vote, Kennedy became the first Roman Catholic President. His Inaugural Address offered the memorable quote: "Ask not what your country can do for you--ask what you can do for your country." As President, he set out to redeem his campaign pledge to get America moving again. His economic programs launched the country on its longest sustained expansion since World War II; before his death, he laid plans for a massive assault on persisting pockets of privation and poverty. Responding to ever more urgent demands, he took vigorous action in the cause of equal rights, calling for new civil rights legislation. His vision of America extended to the quality of the national culture and the central role of the arts in a vital society. He wished America to resume its old mission as the first nation dedicated to the revolution of human rights. With the Alliance…
