Where To Watch
Was this a Fifties rock 'n' roller or a musician in Mayberry?
It takes a true Andy Griffith Show expert or rockabilly royalty to ace this one!

The Andy Griffith Show was about as musical as a sitcom can get without going full-blown Broadway. Sheriff Andy loved to pluck his guitar. Opie jammed in a band. Bluegrass pickers came down from the hills. Farmers had the voices of angels. Even Barney was in the choir (though his talent was questionable).
Fictional rock 'n' roll stars even passed through Mayberry.
Which got us thinking — can you tell the difference between a character from The Andy Griffith Show and a real-life rocker from the 1950s?
Try to sniff out the early rock stars and the TV folk!

Well, I sucked at that
12 out of 14
12/14.
Took the quiz again and this time got 10/14.
Got 'em all! ......with couple of lucky guesses, I will admit.
12/15 ...I didn't know the bandmember names, but I know my '50s rockers...I can thank the Presley Love rock books for that !
You got 13 out of 14 - Smile! Things are lookin' up! You sure know your stuff! Wow, tougher than I thought it would be!! Knew the first four but guessed on 9 of the last 10 (all but Keevy Hazelton) and guessed right on all but #10. I'll definitely take that!!
I enjoyed the first Jim Lindsey episode: "The Guitar Player" During his audition at the courthouse, Jim played rhythm and lead simultaneously. That's real talent! Bobby Fleet (Henry Slate) was hilarious in that episode! He refers to Andy as Hyrum. "You know, if they had a beauty contest in this town, nobody would win!"

C'mon MeTV, not a fair quiz. Why are the same pictures being shown for different musicians/actors? I had to pass on this one.
10 of 14. I got all the 50's bands but I guess I didn't pay much attention to The Mayberry bands and band members.
13/14
13 out of 14. Thought I knew my '50s musicians. Evidently, Keely Hazleton is someone I didn't know.
14 out of 14 remote is broken cant switch to any other channel but ME TV
10/14 - I never paid much attention to the music on that show.
Me neither😬
14/14
