Subject: Andy Griffith Show Theme From: Nathan Sarvis (nsarvis@iglobal.net) Date: 24 Apr 98 - 10:00 PM Okay, I know, it's not "folk music" (yet). I'm looking for the music to the theme whistled at the beginning of the show. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm playing at a cafe that uses the music in their radio spots and would like to learn it right. |
Subject: RE: Andy Griffith Show Theme From: Dean Newman Date: 24 Apr 98 - 11:39 PM I found the music you want in a book of TV themes at a yard sale! It was fascinating to find that there were even words to it! As soon as I saw your post I made a copy of the song the right size to go through my fax machine. If you are able to receive a fax, you will have this within a few minutes of my receiving your reply. I don't know the legal aspects of sending this to you since you will be using it on the air, but I'll do it anyway. Also I don't ask for anything in return. I have a posting on this site also and if I expect someone to do me a favor, I feel I should do the same. Let me know how to get this to you and it's yours. If you don't have fax, give me a mail address. Reply to me at dnewman1@juno.com Dean |

Subject: RE: Andy Griffith Show Theme From: Nathan Date: 25 Apr 98 - 09:00 AM Thanks Dean! And actually, I won't be playing it "on the air." My partner & I play mostly oldtime music (mandolin, banjo, autoharp & hammered dulcimer)on Saturday night at the cafe, and we thought it would be fun to add it to our set list since they're already using it for their radio spots.

Subject: RE: Andy Griffith Show Theme From: Jon W. Date: 27 Apr 98 - 10:58 AM I remember a line something like "We got ahold of a pot full o' gold, Bonanza!" from that theme. Must be another verse. |
Subject: RE: Andy Griffith Show Theme From: chet w Date: 27 Apr 98 - 06:57 PM Can anyone lead me to guitar tablature for the Andy theme? I've got the basics, but I'd like to learn the very chords the guitarist was playing on the show's soundtrack. Thanks, Chet W. |
Subject: RE: Andy Griffith Show Theme From: Date: 01 May 98 - 06:17 AM The lyrics to the Andy Griffith show theme have been recorded a few times by the Henry Kaiser band, in their rather unique style. In front of me I've got their live disc "Heart's Desire" on Reckless Records, with the theme listed as 'The fishin' hole' by Sloane,Hagen and Spencer. Check it out! -Jes |
Subject: Lyr Add: THE FISHIN' HOLE (Everett Sloane) From: Nathan Date: 04 May 98 - 07:12 PM I never knew there were lyrics until Dean sent me a copy (Thanks, Dean!). What a great list this is! Anyway, here they are (Lyrics by Everett Sloane).
Well, now, take down your fishin' pole
We'll have no need to call the roll |
