That's an old song from the 1920s, sung by Al Jolson (and many others, even Star Trek's Brent Spiner!*) Aunt Bee and Opie only sing the chorus; the verse goes like this: Yesterday I heard a lover sigh, "Goodbye, oh me, oh my!" Seven times he got aboard his train, and seven times he hurried back to kiss his love again, and tell her, "Toot-toot, Tootsie .... " (etc.) Pianos are my business, and I don't know if Frances Bavier could really play the piano, but she definitely wasn't playing it in that scene, adult dose or no adult dose. Except for the times Andy picks out a few notes in "Barney's Physical" and the rudimentary stuff from Opie's piano lessons, there's only one actor who actually plays the piano onscreen in a TAGS episode. Anybody know who it is? --Paul Mulik *you can hear Brent Spiner singing "Toot-Toot Tootsie" at www.youtube.com; just search for Brent Spiner or Tootsie and you'll find it. _______________________________________________ WBMUTBB mailing list [email protected] http://mail.wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
