I love how Andy harmonizes his voice so well with others .

Nuttin like the 60s. The best years of my childhood.

The blond dancer in front on the left, who also escorts Don Knotts to the stage along with Goldie Hawn, is none other than Teri Garr, who did quite a bit of these type of shows as a dancer in the early part of her career.

That's crazy, and she was the one who had my attention the whole time. I need to watch this again on my 70". She is such a jewell, I wish she would come out of retirement. BTW, Terry Garr, Julia Roberts and believe it or not, Martha Stewart all have the ability to reduce David Letterman to total rubble; just a complete mumbling idiot. Lol.

I can't get over Maggie Peterson not being in her Darling character.

I remember watching this when it was first-run. Big fan of Andy, Don, and Ernie! Interesting to see Goldie Hawn in the dance troupe.

I really miss these Variety TV Shows. The crap that's on TV today doesn't hold my attention.

A Lot of effort went into those shows and movies back then not to mention talent not saying effort isn't put in todays offerings but it seems with the stuff they have today the actor's and actresses lack raw real talent the way they were totally rehearsed and groomed by the studios back then as opposed to todays methods, also many actors and actresses today seem to be just going through the motions and many cant act as well, you can tell a good quality show from something that's just thrown together to make a buck.

It's better than what is on CBS now.

Hi Vahan!

Truly ridiculous...in the best 60's variety special style!

Yes, this was Goldie’s first television appearance

It is. This was her first television appearance.

I'd love to be in a cruise ship and have this be how things get started.

When Ernie Ford walks in the band plays "16 Tons."

...thanks for posting this

Goldie Hawn is probably one of the dancers dressed in yellow.

Not a good song for Andy. But he often sang folk songs/ballads well on Mayberry. Thank you, Andy dear, for all the wonderful you gave. And Don too!

Would love to see the whole thing. Too bad these old variety shows are so hard to put out on DVD because of all the music rights issues.

That's Goldie Hawn dancing just to the right of Andy.

It’s vey odd seeing Andy dance. When I saw Charlene Darling my mind took me back to the time she sang “There Is A Time”.

Wow! Do you have any of the entire specials Andy did? I've seen the clips you've posted. Awesome! Thank you! I knew Andy tried a couple of regular series after he bowed out of the original "Andy Griffith Show." I think one was called "The New Andy Griffith Show" and another one was called "Headmaster." I never knew he did special variety shows.

If someone got the full show. Will you send me a DVD? I will paid you for it. I like to give it to a friend

Charlene's real name is Margaret Ann Peterson. She married a jazz musician named Gus Mancuso.

why is the whole show not uploaded? I hate it when its just intros and that's that.

They don't make shows like this any more..... .... thank goodness....

Specials were a big deal in the 1960s. This looks like a good show.

Amazingly, the whole number was lip-synced...no mikes to be seen.

Where's Gomer??? Goober??? Barney??? "The Fun Girls???"

sure looks like Goldie

Do you have the whole special?

This type of show seems so hackneyed, trite, and antiquated now, nearly six decades on. But I can't deny that we've truly lost something since then.

Traditional Andy Griffith, without any black entertainers on his show. I doubt he could get away with that these days. Because black actors matter.

Just watched a few episodes of the The Soul Train, it’s a disgrace the lack of white, Asian , Latino y Native American performers or even dancers ,talk about bigotry and racial injustice!

Seems totally out of his element

Is that Rodney Dangerfield?

Yeck. These “specials” were a dime a dozen, hundreds of them, and talk about cookie-cutter format. I would have seen this program at age six, unless my parents had something better to watch. I don’t remember those big yellow birds dancing.

I h ope they paid lil richard

It's amusing how they whitened up THE Blues tune with the most filthy lyrics; they even took the Rockabilly up tempo version which was already "Whitey-ized" and "Ray Coniff-ivzed" it. Beautiful. Hilarious yet masterful.

He had a phenomenal deep baritone voice. Similar and in the style of Robert Goulet. This song did not lend itself to that. He could sing quite well.
