Touring band appearing in two episodes of the classic TV sitcom The Andy Griffith Show. In "The Guitar Player" (first aired 17 Oct. 1960), Fleet (Henry Slate) hires Jim Lindsey thanks to Andy's meddling. Then, in "The Guitar Player Returns" (first aired 15 May 1961), Fleet (now played by Herbert Ellis) tells Andy how success turned Lindsey into a big jerk.
