MELANCHOLAHOLIC
This week on A Prairie Home Companion a nostalgic fall rewind show featuring bits and pieces from a few shows we did last November, including the Punch Brothers with their song called "Next to the Trash," the angelic singing and fiddling Quebe Sisters Band, Public Radio's BFF Paula Poundstone, and The Nashville Bluegrass Band. Also, Floridian guitarist JJ Grey and mezzo-soprano Susan Graham as the diva Sally Saltine in an episode of Guy Noir. Plus, a segment devoted to our dearly departed Tom Keith, including: Larry in the Basement, Maurice from Café Beouf, and Tom sings in a kilt, totally commando.
