List Created by Garrison Keillor - Performed by Garrison Keillor, Tim Russell & Prairie Home Companion cast - 1 COMPACT DISC - 1.25 hours Publisher, HighBridge Audio (April 2006) In popular skits from A Prairie Home Companion, two crusty cowboys—one a poet, the other his gravel-voiced sidekick—reveal what it’s really like out there on the range. Lefty: Haven’t you read about the dangers of drinking? Like the “News from Lake Wobegon” and “Guy Noir, Private Eye,” “The Lives of the Cowboys” has become a signature part of A Prairie Home Companion. Each week, radio listeners can’t wait to hear Lefty’s latest poem and Dusty’s latest rant. In six complete sketches drawn from the radio show, Dusty (Tim Russell) and Lefty (Garrison Keillor) cope with hangovers and citrusy aftershave, drive a herd of 10,000 free range chickens, tangle with a territorial poet named Big Messer, and much more. Each is a glimpse into daily life in and mostly out of the saddle. Also includes four songs. Garrison Keillor, humorist and best-selling author, has hosted A Prairie Home Companion for more than 30 years. Each week, he brings listeners along on amiable visits to his mythical hometown, Lake Wobegon. A member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters, he lives in St. Paul, Minnesota. |
