Buddy Emmons on PRAIRIE HOME COMPANION

Ben Elder · From: La Crescenta, California, USA

(This came with last Saturday's date attached, but it was not the show that ran 11/18-19, so I expect they mean 11/25...)

This week on A Prairie Home Companion we're rolling all eighteen wheels to Cincinnati, where bluegrass and country music met high-powered broadcasting for the very first time in the 1930's. With us this week, an amazing acoustic guitar picker (and the Stradivarius of modern luthiers) Wayne Henderson and his extremely talented wife, Helen White. We'll have bionic bluegrass wild man Sam Bush, plus one of the finest steel players to ever walk the earth, Buddy Emmons, sitting in with The Guy's All-Star Shoe Band, so we must warn listeners there may be a slightly increased risk of the spontaneous combustion of your radio. Also with us, The Royal Academy of Radio Acting: Tim Russell, Sue Scott, and Fred Newman, the News from Lake Wobegon, and much more this Saturday from the "All Together Surprising" city of Cincinnati, USA.

Yes, this confirms it. BE had a stellar appearance several years ago as a featured artist. Keillor has a terrible time getting his steel guitar terminology straight (he always seems to refer to frequent guest Cindy Cashdollar's instrument as a pedal steel guitar) but for sure, he digs & respects steel guitar and he knows royalty when he sees/hears it.
