## Description

As stated by Michael Timmins, The Kennedy Suite took the assassination of John F Kennedy, "an event that had been subsumed and transformed by the American myth making machine, and had infused it with humanity... The songs are filled with acute insights into the human condition, black humor, profanity, moments of pure empathy, historical details, cultural references and self-referential asides. Each song is written from the perspective of someone, real or imagined, that had a connection to the events of Dealy Plaza on November 22, 1963." Written by Scott Garbe, produced by Michael Timmins, and presented by Cowboy Junkies, the album "is an examination of a world changing event and the human toll that the assassination exacted. It is also a cutting look at our present day culture and times which holds up a mirror to the circumstances, people and events of November 22, 1963 and reflects back a strikingly recognizable image, half a century later." Michael Timmins.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Not a Cowboy Junkies CD per se
  

*by T***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 30, 2014*

This is an interesting theme album based on the Kennedy assassination, and mislabeled as a Junkies album.  This song cycle was created by Toronto poet Scott Garbe, produced by Cowboy Junkies' Michael Timmins along with Andy Maize and Josh Finlayson of Skydiggers.  It actually contains only 1 song credited to the Junkies.  It is still a good album and an interesting listen but if you are buying it expecting that you are buying the latest release by the Cowboy Junkies, I'd say "buyer beware."

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Not as advertised.
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 27, 2014*

This is an ok record, but it's only produced by some of the Junkies team and not a Junkies recording.  I would have listened to it first had it been properly labeled and I'm not sure I would have bought it.  It reads a lot more interesting than it sounds, to be honest.  I like things that take on a big challenge and so I support this, but I don't think it's all that successful.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Should not be labeled a Cowboy Junkies album...
  

*by W***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 19, 2014*

It is very misleading to label this a Cowboy Junkies record... it has ONE Cowboy Junkies song on it. The rest is a song cycle about the Kennedy assassination written by a friend of the Junkies. The Cowboy Junkies song is very good and classic Junkies; the rest of the album is fairly ho-hum. On first listen, it faded so far into the background I forgot what I was listening to and wondered why I was playing it.
