Where To Watch
Who is playing these musical instruments in The Waltons?
Jason wasn’t the only musician in the family.
Warner Brothers
Music was a huge part of The Waltons. It played (no pun intended) a role in many memorable episodes, usually involving second son, Jason. Actor Jon Walmsley was already an accomplished musician when he started on the show as a teenager. He showed off his talents throughout the series, even writing original songs.
But other family members and Walton’s Mountain residents were known to tickle the ivories or pluck a few chords as well. Can you guess who is playing all these instruments seen on the classic series?

Ron Howard guest starred on just one Walton’s episode, “The Gift.” He played a pal of Jason’s who sadly dies (of leukemia, I think).
There is a coincidence of sorts here: Ron was NOT asked to audition for The Homecoming (1972), but he politely came to auditions and asked to read for the part of John-Boy, as he felt he could play the part well. Earl Hamner and Lee Rich politely allowed him to read for the part. They thanked him and explained that the role of J-B was already cast and that they were holding auditions that day for OTHER Walton kids.
I love and respect RH’s confidence and his humility.

Merle Haggard wasn't the father in the episode where Seth died.
Ken Swofford played Red Turner.
In a later episode, The Comeback, Jason helps Red get back to performing after Seth died. That time Red Turner was played by Merle Haggard. One of a few times a character was brought back but played by a different actor. Pat Quinn, "Alice", played tye mother both times.
Bobby Bigelow was a different character.
