Gospel Birds: And Other Stories of Lake Wobegon Audio CD – Unabridged, April 28, 1993

Back in 1990 I discovered gospel birds and Garrison Keillor from stories from Lake Wobegon this was my first on tape and now I'm glad to own it on CD and we listen to it to mellow out in the car love his humor laughter through tears doesn't get any better than that

Always our go-to for long drives.., the best set of stories from my point of view...

This is one of 2 collections of monologues (the other being "Fall") that (to me) comprise the absolute best of Garrison Keillor's recorded Lake Wobegon stories. Some of the later collections have a more uneven feel, but "Gospel Birds" and "Fall" don't have a weak moment on them. The stories range from hilarious to touching to heartbreaking, and many times are all three at once. You'll laugh at these whacko Minnesota characters, but you'll also see yourself in them, and feel along with them as well. This is time well spent.

Garrison Keelor is grear

Was great for cross country car ride when no radio reception.

This one is the best! Ben and I laughed until our sides hurt.. It's a really awesome loveable CD.. I would recommend this one for everyone to hear.. Especially if they want a good laugh...

good cd

My sister introduced this collection of stories to me on a cassette tape. The cassette is messing up after repeated uses, so I bought her and me the DVD so we can both listen while traveling. This is one of the funniest things I have ever listened to. It makes the miles go by very quickly when you are laughing.
