All Rights Reserved.   Peach Pie, 2014 © 2014 by Bud Grossmann FW: THIS WEEK: THERE IS A WINDING ROAD Oh, I look forward to this 1985 show! In the past, when I’ve had a chance to attend a broadcast, I declined, figuring, “Why would I want to watch a radio show?” But today, for approximately the first time ever, I clicked on several videos from the 40th Anniv. show. They were pretty wonderful. Dad’s pie is done. I put in too many peaches, and it swelled up against the top of the oven. So I guess I should have listened when Dad balked at giving me the six peaches I asked for. “They’re big,” he said, and he was right. Also, next time I’m going to leave out the yeast. Love, Dave THERE IS A WINDING ROAD July 12, 2014 This week on A Prairie Home Companion, we kick off our summer repeats with a classic recorded all the way back on November 23, 1985 at the Bridges Auditorium at the Claremont Colleges in Claremont, California. Willie Nelson sings a few tunes with our band (featuring Chet Atkins, Johnny Gimble, Peter Ostroushko, and Butch Thompson), and Tom Keith performs his version of "Turkey in the Straw," plus, music from El Mariachi Los Galleros de Pedro Rey, and saw player David Weiss. In Lake Wobegon, Senator K. Thorvaldson’s mysterious love Laura comes to town to meet his family.
