>>>Just now watching The Loaded Goat and it seemed to me that the tune Barney >>>plays on the harmonica sounds a lot like the song Barney sang ?Juanita? Can anyone verify that? >>>
Yes, it is the same song. Many of the songs heard on The Show, including Juanita, Little Brown Church in the Vale, The Quilting Party (Seein’ Nellie Home), and good ol’ 14-A were included in a songbook* that was used in the Mt. Airy schools when Andy was a boy. He obviously had fond memories of them, and choose to use them on the show. Also, all the copyrights would had long since inspired which made it much easier from a production standpoint. Many great songs used on Gomer Pyle - USMC, were unfortunately cut out when the episodes were put on DVD, because they were NOT in public domain and somebody was too cheap to pay for the use of the songs. But I digress.
