A Prairie Home Companion: Final Performance
Before the return of A Prairie Home Companion in 1989, there was the spectacular “final” show in 1987. This recording presents that momentous July 1st celebration.
Joining Garrison Keillor in the farewells are longtime friends Chet Atkins, Jean Redpath, Leo Kottke, Kate Mackenzie and others, with many songs including “Brownie and Pete” and “Tell Me Why”. The broadcast also features your favorite sponsors, parting words from Garrison and a signature Lake Wobegon monologue.
This one evening shows why A Prairie Home Companion—so loved around the world—would soon return.
