This week on A Prairie Home Companion, a summertime mix of three shows from Ohio. Sam Bush and Buddy Emmons sit in with Rich Dworsky and The Guy's All-Star Shoe Band, tenor Mark Thomsen sings "La donna e mobile," and Dusty and Lefty get stuck roping shopping carts at a strip mall opening. Plus, "the drifter" is back in Lake Wobegon. Join The Royal Academy of Radio Actors—Tim Russell, Sue Scott, Tom Keith and Fred Newman—for a whirlwind review of performances from the Buckeye State.

    77 Love Sonnets by Garrison Keillor

    77 Love Sonnets From Garrison Keillor:
    “When I was 16, Helen Fleischman assigned me to memorize Shakespeare’s Sonnet No. 29, ‘When in disgrace with fortune and men’s eyes, I all alone beweep my outcast state’ for English class, and fifty years later, that poem is still in my head. Algebra got washed away, and geometry and most of biology, but those lines about the redemptive power of love in the face of shame are still here behind my eyeballs, more permanent than my own teeth. The sonnet is a durable good. These 77 of mine include sonnets of praise, some erotic, some lamentations, some street sonnets and a 12-sonnet cycle of months. If anything here offends, I beg your pardon, I come in peace, I depart in gratitude.”


    Robin and Linda Williams: Buena Vista

    Robin & Linda Williams are among the most popular guest performers of A Prairie Home Companion (they also appeared in the movie, have performed as part of the The Hopeful Gospel Quartet, and made appearances as Marvin & Mavis Smiley). This CD features some of the duo's best harmonies from the show. Among the 12 tracks are familiar fan favorites, including "For Better or Worse", "Visions of Mother and Dad", "Tied Down, Home Free" and the title track. A collection that is muy bueno!
