Synopsis by Hal Erickson
When Mayberry choir director John Masters (Olan Soule) announces that he needs a new first tenor, Barney volunteers for the job. Unfortunately, Barney's musical skills are on a par with his talents as deputy. When it becomes obvious that the other choir members haven't the heart to tell Barney that his singing stinks, Andy comes up with a face-saving strategy that could well have been borrowed from the climax of Singin' in the Rain. Originally shown on February 19, 1962, "Barney and the Choir" was written by Jack Elinson and Charles Stewart.
