Save $10 when you buy our gift set of two wonderful Garrison Keillor Christmas CDs!  Filled with music, laughter, and the genuine spirit of Christmas, these two CD collections will make Lake Wobegon everyone's home for the holidays.

A Prairie Home Christmas CD is a delightful compilation of all-time-favorite highlights from holiday broadcasts of A Prairie Home Companion.  Originally broadcast on Christmas Eve 1994, selections include music from the Hopeful Gospel Quartet and Anonymous 4; Garrison Keillor singing the Danish carol "Det Kimmer Nu," a hilarious "Twelve Days of Christmas" with sound-effects maestro Tom Keith, and a special Christmas edition of "The News From Lake Wobegon," never before available on audio.

Two hours on two compact discs.

The Christmas Companion CD includes songs, sketches, sound effects, laughter, sweet nostalgia, and a monologue or two, all with a Christmas theme and all heard originally on live broadcasts of A Prairie Home Companion.  Garrison Keillor, the show’s cast, and special guests are joined by hundreds of friends and acquaintances in a holiday gala that’s sure to become a family favorite and an annual tradition.  Selections include Rhubard with Tim Russell and others; Silent Night with Butch Thompson;  Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas with Diana Krall and The Christ Child's Lullaby.


Two hours on two compact discs.
