...comic named Vaughn Meader, who does a frequently riotous impersonation of Jack Kennedy. Meader's intonation, rhythm and broad Bostonian accent are good enough to fool any Jacqueline. The series of skits that comprise the record also include a wonderfully wispy, whispery impersonation of Jackie herself, played by Naomi Brossart. Most of it is not wit but gags, and the gags are not all top-drawer, though they are greeted as such by one of those irritating studio audiences ready to laugh loudly on cue.

Among the cases: Sarah Goldsmith, a mother of two who is cheating on a tabby-cat husband with a tomcat theater director; Naomi Shields, an alcoholic nymphomaniac who accommodates an entire jazz combo; Teresa Harnish, the arty wife of an art dealer who decides to find out from a Cro-Magnon beach bum how the other half loves.
