..the only autograph I've ever gotten in my life was from Andy Griffith.. it was 1973, and my family had gone down to Nags Head, NC to visit friends.. I was 12 years old, and we were at a marina, going out for some offshore fishing.. the manager mentioned that Mr Griffith's boat was coming in, so we went down to the docks.. as they tied up, Andy stepped out, and greeted us warmly.. My young friend (..also 12) and I kept looking past Andy, into the boat.. he noticed this, and asked "what y'all lookin for"..? ...... we both replied: "Opie"..., he busted out laughing... A true gentleman.. he gave us some of his catch (..which the marina manager put on ice til WE got back..) My dad knew some folks that Andy knew from the 50's also, and was in the Air Force when "No Time For Sergeants" came out.. and my mother was from Raleigh...my dad said that the "saluting toilets" scene was the funniest things he'd ever seen..lol..
I enjoyed the scene when they were flying along in an airplane without a pilot they were attempting to use the radios to get some help by spitting into the microphone and yelling "Halloh!". (Hello with a heavy southern draw).
@@DiamonDave1361 my father actually had the same hair and same age , my daddy was more handsome, he actually looked like JFK same hairline , again my father was more handsome,, wonderful memories ♥️
Andy's personality was different in season one. I liked him better from seasons 2-5. I also didn't care for his relationship with Ellie. I didn't feel like they were a good match.
By the time his show went on the air I had been listening to the standup routines for three or four years. I was a kid just 7 years older than Opie and didn't realize Andy had been acting in successful Broadway plays all that time. Each comedy routine was on a 45rpm single and he sang songs on the B-sides - pop, country, rock'n'roll, he was pretty versatile. Now in retrospect I feel that no matter how beloved Sheriff Andy was, Griffith's greatest achievement was his brilliant performance in A Face in the Crowd. Oh and also when he was in college he joined the local Gilbert & Sullivan Society and was leading man in some of their productions: Wish I could've been there for that! Born too late and in the wrong state...
I will always remember watching Andy and the gang everyday of summer vacation back in the sixties on that old black and white tv with my sisters and my beloved Mom. We laughed so much together. Momma, I sure do miss you and the love you gave me.
I'm nearing the end of season one of the Andy Griffiths Show here in England (courtesy of iTunes). I've never seen it before but it's terrific. All that warmth and southern charm. This was one of my favourite episodes so far.
I met Roland White just this year, he told us all kinds of stories about playing with Bill Monroe and Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs, god what a legend, Roland is a great guy, and wonderful musician, defiantly check his stuff out.
Leroy Mack is in my hometown right now. I'll be playing music with him this week!!! I'm playing guitar. So, I get to play the part of Clarence.... The truth is, I'm not fit to even be mentioned in the same sentence as Clarence. Regardless, I can't adequately describe how cool this is going to be.
I so agree with you....I barely remember the tale end of the 60's...but I also grew up in an area where we did these things. Times have changed , that is for sure and for certain ....and not for the better.
In an episode of the show Diagnosis Murder, where Andy Griffith reprises his role as the lawyer Ben Matlock, he sings it again at the end of the episode. The name of the episode is Murder Two - you can find it posted here.
That's for sure! Today's kids have no idea how life was for us. America was at its peak and we were truly blessed. They have sure ruined everything now. I guess nothing lasts forever. I was privileged to travel all over America in the 60's, usually on Route 66. I remember how every town was an adventure. All the restaurants and motels were distinct. You never knew what you would see. The people were friendly and we all felt safe. We knew there were some bad people out there, but they were few.
Growing up in the 60's was great. I lived in east Tn and yes we sang togeher, the kids would caching lighting bugs at night for entertainment. Families went to chuch together and actually ate meals together cooked by Mom,
It's quite a blessing to have all this good music on TH-cam to enjoy over and over again. I didn't always have the time or opportunity to watch those old shows but many are available online and kept alive by the good folks that share them. Thanks for uploading this video.
You gotta love all the musicians that played on this show and where they all went from there. I have seen a lot of them play throughout my life and it warms my heart to this day.
This show is awesome. It had long since been canceled when I started watching it and I suspect that it will continue to be watched for many more years.
Clarence White is playing the same 1935 Martin D28 that Tony Rice ended up getting a hold of many years after Clarence sold it. Now Tony is gone too. RIP both Tony & Clarence.
I just loved to hear Andy sing "Moon River." And I'll never forget his beautiful rendition of "Battle Hymn of the Republic" at Robert Kennedy's funeral.
Like so many video's this one doesn't have the volume to fully enjoy the song. I loved this on TV as I did most all the episodes of Andy Griffith. He was one of the greatest.
I always loved Andy's guitar playing and singing. I have one of his Albums. I recommend you downloading House of the Rising Sun by Andy Griffith. He did that song very well.
The Dillards had a couple of members that were from states that don’t traditionally have any bluegrass origins. Kind- of a “rag tag” group. They were from Missouri and wanted to play bluegrass like the traditional Appalachian groups.They had a Tennesssean and a North Carolinian a Texan, and a couple that were from outside the South and 2 or 3 from Missouri
The group performing here was known at the time as "The Country Boys", later to become the "The Kentucky Colonels", including Clarence and Roland White (mandolin and guitar) and Billy Ray Lathum (banjo), who would years later replace Herb Pederson in "The Dillards", the band that had also starred on Andy Griffith as "The Darlings". Clarence and Roland were in their late teens when they performed on the AG show.
Although it isn’t mentioned here, the reason that the White Brothers had to change the name of their band to the “Kentucky Colonels” was because bluegrass singer Mac Wiseman used the name “Country Boys” for his band and according to some sources claimed trademark rights to that name.
And Herb Pederson was the guy who harmonized with Miss Emmylou Harris on a classic Seventies Country and Western Duet called "If I Could Only Win Your Love."🤔🎤🎼🎸🎻🥁B.W.
Incredible to see Clarence White here. I was a big fan of the Byrds and didn't know of him before then, although I read about his bluegrass background. YT is amazing.
I like how andy's lips want to start singing the second half to the first verse! Great band...great show...forgotten times; sadly....Keep Em' coming!!!
You don't know how many episodes I have sat through waiting to see this! It was as great as I have heard, not casual music but a well tuned engine running fast. Cool that Andy got them each their own close up. This made my day, thanks!
Then you are Roland's child, nephew or niece. I have met him and talked with him quite a bit. He's a real nice guy. And Clarence was the best flatpicker ever.
Clarence in the background playing a 1935 martin d28 serial # 58957 tony rice owns it now. it has the most beautiful sound of any guitar I have ever heard the bone
@EricFlatpick Yup, Andy had good taste in music as far as I'm concerned. I'd loved to have gotten to pick with these guys. You know that guitar Clarence is playing there is the same one Tony Rice ended up with. You see it here with the previous neck it had on it, before Clarence backed over it with a car. Roland left it on the ground behind it and after that they had it rebuilt.
Yep that is mr rice's guitar now also did u know that marty Stewart ended up with his b string bender fender from when he was with the byrds I'm a flat picker myself I love bluegrass only problem is that nobody around here likes it much and there is never anyone to pick with
I was born in 1958 and spend my formative years enjoying family time. I can remember catchint the lightning bugs and eating watermelon outside "cause it is so messy" because the kids dived into a slice of watermelon face first. Now everyone gets a plate of food(generally cooked by a restaurant) at dinner and goes to a seperate room to eat. What happened to the good ole days?
Marie Maribo, yes, and I believe he won some awards for his gospel albums. Before that, I saw him on a show, singing a gospel hymn , "Somebody Bigger."
Not much more Americana than Bluegrass at the barbershop! The music scenes on TAGS were never filler...but integral to the story and true feel of the place called Mayberry!
This episode isn't too far from reality. As far back as recording technology goes, there have been folks that go to isolated areas of the country recording the music of the people. You can see some great video clips on David Hoffman's TH-cam channel!
That was how Mississipi John Hurt was "rediscovered". Doc Watson was persuaded that he should go on tour. He couldn't really believe anybody wanted to hear a bunch of hillbillies play music.

That was Clarence White on the guitar, he later on joined the Byrds.
And then invented the B-bender!
My ex girlfriend hates Andy Griffith. I didn’t need that kind of negativity in my life.
She didn't cry when Old Yeller died. Do you think I'll cry when she's gone?
That's right
Andy Griffith was a partial asshole in real life. If he didn't like an actor on his show, he wouldn't work with them again.
You don't need to like all the same things for a relationship to work.
Wow ,sorry too know that,it was a great show.did she like any other show from that time?????
“ Your face is like a coffee pot,
your nose is a spout,
your face is like a fireplace
with all the ashes out.”
I was about to post this 🤣
Clarence did some great things with the Kentucky Colonels, The Byrds, and Muleskinner. He left us way too soon. RIP Clarence White.
I can sit and watch Andy all day, but when it comes to Season 1, I can binge-watch it for a day straight.
Andy's personality was different in season one. I liked him better from seasons 2-5. I also didn't care for his relationship with Ellie. I didn't feel like they were a good match.

Andy Griffith was just a super talented person. His stand up was pretty darn funny too. I have enjoyed Andy Griffith's work all my life.

tv today....craaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaap
just performed in Morgantown, WV and me and the band got to pose next to a bronze sculpture of Don Knotts that's in the center of town!
Andy Griffith Show may have been the greatest show ever, I wish there was something remotely as cool today.
South Park, For The Win.
Nothing can compare to Andy Griffith.
I wish I could have met my grandpa before he passed away.
TV sure has went down the tubes since this was on TV
Quick shot of the great Clarence White,unreal!!
I met Roland White just this year, he told us all kinds of stories about playing with Bill Monroe and Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs, god what a legend, Roland is a great guy, and wonderful musician, defiantly check his stuff out.
I met Ronald at the D.C. Bluegrass Union camp at Common Ground on the Hill.
The Southern Otaku wow!!!! I would have loved to have been there. I have Monroe Flatt and Scruggs all on CD
This song is just so catchy!

What a gifted, Humble man He was. God rest your soul, Mr. Griffith.
Everyone's Sherriff and Pa.
White Brothers! What a great clip.
that's what I call music !
they are all gone but places like ME-TV brings some of them on ! you don,t see good shows anymore like you use to !
TRUE bluegrass musicians. No affect. No "posing"
Oregon Smitty The other group that played on the show were no posers or actors. The Dillards were as real as it gets.
@@rockinredneck57 loved those Dillards. They made Andy sound great
Was that The Dillards? They looked different than the Darling family.
so much talent on this show!...Mayberry forever!
Almost 50 years old and saw this episode for the 1st time today on the Sundance channel and it's now my favorite bluegrass tune!
Andy Griffith is one celebrity I always wanted to meet another was that great actor Charlton Heston but both are gone now and I never met them.
You can always visit and put flowers on their graves.
Loyalguardian6000 Not like meeting them in person though.
@@stevea0816 Exactly! Andy just seemed like a regular folk!
Clarence, the best guitarist I ever saw and I saw a lot of them from all different genres.
That's for sure! Today's kids have no idea how life was for us. America was at its peak and we were truly blessed. They have sure ruined everything now. I guess nothing lasts forever.

@@jasonlove5366 Damn right.
I still watch the Andy Griffith show every now night…
Fantastic. Billy Ray Latham on banjo, of course Roland on that F4 and Clarence on guitar, Roger Bush on bass and Leroy McNees on dobro.
I love Andy Griffith's music.
Growing up in the 60's was great. I lived in east Tn and yes we sang togeher, the kids would caching lighting bugs at night for entertainment. Families went to chuch together and actually ate meals together cooked by Mom,

I miss Andy Griffith and Don Knotts
Wow... that's great. I saw Clarence White when he was a member of The Byrds. Fantastic video.
Andy showed real talent acting and in music, grew up watching him as a kid so sad to see hes gone. God bless him
"woah mule, u kicking mule, whoa mule i saaay, i aint got time to kiss ya now my mule-a run away" ahhh this is great!!
awe shux, I was hoping for Clarence to get a run in.
Amen... :( I would have loved to lived in those days..
Solid gold! And for the 8 sad sap suckers that disliked it? Well, there is no help for you.
Congratulations to the Kentucky Colonels on their induction into the Bluegrass Hall of Fame in Raleigh North Carolina. Thanks fellas
So good, that it’s in the album. God I love Andy Griffith
Andy Griffith sang this same song on Diagnosis Murder in 1997 (Murder Two episode) playing his Ben Matlock character. Excellent

Awesome banjo playing
Great clip! I have just about every episode memorized, but I still love to watch it.
wish i had all the music from the show on cd.... this one is priceless...
there is a time for us to Wander...when time is young..and so are we
And that is his brother Roland on Mandoline. Unreal, I thought I had seen every Andy Griffith show there was, but I guess not.
