Currently reading a book by Mitch Jayne of The Dillards entitled, "Home Grown Stories & Home Spun Lies". The stories are hilarious. Like you Bob, I can listen to a bit of bluegrass. But i can listen to The Dillards all day. Their song lyrics tend to tell great stories and are backed up by tremendously talented instrumentalists.

Thnx

[@susanmayer9791]

I've always loved the Dillards/Darlings! Kind of a precursor to the characters on the Bob Newhart's second series with Larry, his brother Darryl and his other brother Darryl! I always thought of the Darling brothers when I saw that.

[@thomassmith6232]

[@jefferyosborn-uw6se]

I saw the Dillard's w/ Dan Hicks and his Hot licks in Los Gatos Old Town Theater in 1971 they did an encore with the licks.

[@michellepost3098]

I have a CD of their best hits.They sing good bluegrass.

[@theandygriffithshowfactsan3585]

They do

[@JM-yx1lm]

This is perfect presentation and example of how to get right into the title of the video and not tell us when the andy show started and ended and all the such youve done in other videos.

[@rebekahdemary7638]

I wish The Dillards and Maggie Peterson had recorded "There is a Time". Great harmonizing.

[@caroljeanscott5571]

The Dillard's were such a musical group, there talent was unbelievable. One of the songs we square dance to is Dooly.

[@theandygriffithshowfactsan3585]

The last band that i was in put dooley in a medley..was foggy mountain breakdown, rocky top, dooley and fox on the run

[@kelseymathias3881]

I love the Darling Dillards. Their music, and on shows where they speak...hilarious!

[@bobconnor1210]

Doug wrote “There is a time” which was performed on the show.

The book Mayberry 101 covers some of the Darling episodes. It mentioned their comments about the jug playing. Barney and the Choir was in Season Two. The Darlings made their debut in Season Three. Ironically, Don Knotts wasn't in that first episode. Too bad the Darlings didn't appear in any of the choir episodes. Besides being good singers, their music could have drowned out Barney.
In his hotel job, John Masters couldn't allow the music to go on. Briscoe only paid for a room with single occupancy. The other guests might have complained about the noise. Some other time John might have recruited them for the choir. We still don't know if it was just a coincidence that every Darling episode focused on marriage.
