While the music was mostly cuts I already possessed, I bought the cd primarily to hear the clips from Robin Williams charactor "Adrian Cronauer" . "Good Morning Vietnam" (the movie) captured the essence of irreverance towards authority of the time. Cronauer wise cracked and flaunted the powers to be but was connected to the everyday soldier whether in the field or in the rear echelons. They all counted to him. He was a dangerous influence because challenged the propriety of the war and showed it's absurdities. The CD "Good Morning Vietnam", itself was a very broad cross section of the musical tates of the time. From Louie Armstrong to the beach boys to James Brown, it represented the vast range of folk trapped in this war. The variety of charactors Williams created and presented in his Cronauaer dialogues added to this portrayal of everyday americans stuck in Vietnam. If you want to provoke a few memories of this era I can recommend this CD!Read full review
