Emmylou Harris Spends The Weekend With Animal Radio

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Top40 Charts/ Animal Radio) - Animal Radio Announces Award Winning Country Music Star, Future Country Music Hall of Fame Inductee and Animal Rights Activist, Emmylou Harris and Comedian Richard Pryor's wife, Jennifer Pryor, to make guest appearances on the AM/FM (terrestrial) and XM Satellite Radio broadcast of Animal Radio this weekend.

"Animals, that is what I want to devote my life to now," Emmylou Harris tells Animal Radio listeners. "Animals can teach us how to be better human beings. They've certainly taught me that." The angel-voiced singer has been wowing audiences for decades and her true love lives in the legacy of "Bonaparte" - a dog that touched her deeply and inspired her to start her Nashville-area animal rescue/fostering organization, "Bonaparte's Retreat."

Also in this special program, Richard Pryor's wife, Jennifer Pryor, shares information regarding "Pryor's Planet" - an animal advocate organization and Richard Pryor's legacy as "A Saving Grace for All Animals". Additionally, Jennifer is a part of Animal Radio's tribute to the late-comedian. Jennifer recalls, "Richard would get out of the car and talk to cows - he had an 'animal' magnetism."

This highly anticipated Animal Radio broadcast will air on 97 AM-FM Animal Radio affiliates, including KOST 103.5 FM Los Angeles, and XM Satellite Radio channel 158 Saturday May 24, 2008 at noon EDT, and again Sunday May 25, 2008 at 9am EDT.
