When he sang on the Andy Griffith Show, I was absolutely mesmerized by his voice. What a true talent 💕
Me too...I was totally blown away!!
Just wondering how many of you who heard this got a lump in your throat and tears in yours eyes? I sure did. He sounds as young as when he appeared on the Andy Griffith Show and sang this beautiful song.
Chalk me up.
Well, I'm right there with you! I remember the show also and I teared-up a bit myself. Glad this video was posted.
I started out with a lump then quickly progressed to a full-on ugly cry. 😭
I did

Every single time.
That man has one of the most beautiful voices to ever be heard on this planet. There is talent and then there is a pure gift. He was given a gift.
This is so damn awesome, when you're an Andy Griffith show fan this is the coolest thing. He still sounds amazing!!!
I totally agree.
Absolutely! Love!!!
Steven Howard I Love Alot of the programs from
1950 to 1989
He sure does😳😳😳
Always wonder y they couldnt been brothers on TAGS?? Missed opportunity i think
Jack Princes' rendition of "lonesome road" will go down in history as the best ever. God bless you Jack, thanks for the memories.
No one sings Long Lonesome Road like Jack Prince. His episodes on The Andy Griffith show as Rafe Hollister were the best. RIP Jack. Thank you for your amazing voice. And sharing it with us. God bless you.
I wish we had a few towns these days like maberry .this world has gone to hell in a hand basket!!!!!!!!!!!!
I live in rural FL and shoot youth sports pics in rural FL, GA and Alabama. Meet wonderful small town folks.
@Joe Casson I grew up with my home away from home being a small town like Mayberry. Bath, NC. My grandparents lived right on Main Street. Yes, people knew a lot about other people, but that's what happens in a close knit community. Sure there were gossips, and nosy neighbors, people with poor personalities, and, yes, racists, but that's the case everywhere you go. I don't care if you are in Frogmore, SC or Los Angeles, CA. In Bath, every evening we'd sit on the front porch and random passersby would stop and join in on the conversation. Maybe grab a cup of coffee and hang out. It may have been the principal of the high school (white) or Jimmy the black man that mowed lawns. It didn't matter. Everyone was welcome and it was that way with most every front porch in town. I'm glad I grew up in a small town and I'm a better person for it. It was never as you put it "Shitty" or "Racist". I'm sorry you feel the way you do. You sound like an angry person and someone who has a lot to hide🤔

Well said.
As it has been said it would for thousands of years. A slow start then a long Rollercoaster ride then a quick finish.
@Joe Casson your saying the big city is different. You may be dead. Have you checked lately.
How prophetic this song is as a description of the Christian life, living life for Jesus, especially since Jack performs it with such heartfelt feeling,emotion, passion, it is as if Jack is singing right to you, for you, and is singing your song of your life as you travel down Life's Highway. As long as you have a tender heart with compassion, love in your heart, this song will continue to speak to you and for you, like a prayer to God for all the days of your life. R.I.P. Jack Prince,for now you sing in Heaven's Choir for The Prince of Peace, the King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Jesus Christ.
I had the pleasure of knowing Jack in his later years when he kept busy in the security industry in Las Vegas. He was stoked about doing this special and could still sing... but I knew this having seen him sing unaccompanied for a lady in the office on her birthday. Truly a nice man.
Nonya Beezanus, That's neat. Seems like he lost quite a bit of weight do you know why?
Awesome
Liberals get ready to fill out your reports on me, cause I'm going to vent here. Frankly I expect some "unfriending" to happen and that is fine too.
I believe we all have the right to worship as we please, but I also know that our country, the United States of America, was founded on Christian principles.
I believe we should be proud of our country. A quote is a quote. It should not be amended or watered down. The news media organizations should not be afraid to use the "Love of Christ" part. Why they state, “Because, using the words Christ or God might offend someone!” Well, now it's my turn to be offended!
I'm offended that the news media would edit it out.
Offended that Christians are being asked to tread lightly, so as not to offend someone of another religion. This man, Jesus, loved God, loved his people, loved the world, and gave his life for the sins of all people. Those who believe in Him, and accept Him as their personal Savior, will have everlasting life !!!
This Founding Principle is actually embedded in our Declaration of Independence: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit
of Happiness.”
I hope every Christian or every person that believes in God who is OFFENDED will copy this and paste it to their status.....
“If we ever forget that we're one nation under GOD, then we will be a nation gone under.” ~Ronald Reagan.
*Before you say it, I already know that a lot of you don't copy & paste.* It’s easy... hold your finger on this post when the word copycopy appears just touch it then go to your home page and where it says "what's on your mind" touch it and hold your finger where you would start writing your comment and "paste”
If you read this to the end, can I get an "Amen”?

@@daleculpepper9432 Amen! ❤❤❤
I’m here because I saw the Andy Griffith Show epidide S 3 E 20 “Rafe Hollister Sings” wonderful voice , continue resting in peace Jack Prince.
My daughters (ages 13 and 21) and I are watching this episode of Andy Griffith with Rafe singing .
Old age is coming for us all. Yes this brought tears to my eyes. God bless him.
If we're lucky, my dad always said.
What a beautiful voice Jack Prince he had.. The first time I heard him sing on the Andy Griffith show, I couldn't believe it.
"Rafe Hollister Sings" is my FAVORITE Andy griffith show episode!
Just as sweet as He sang it 30 years before. God Bless.
I'm a young buck raised Southern California, yet this ripes at me like this is the SOUL of our country!
I'm a huge Andy Griffith Show fan...He did this same song on that show with Andy on guitar...WHAT A VOICE!!-
So Otis wennt off the wagon. Not surprised
Hal Smith wasn't only, as he mentions in the interview with Ralph here, the voice of Barney Rubble and Dino on the Flinstones, he also voiced the owl character on Winnie The Poo, and his most iconic character, perhaps (outside of Otis Campbell on the Andy Griffith show), was that of the claymation dog, Goliath, on "Davey and Goliath," which aired around the world for many years.
Jack Prince not only appeared on Broadway and as a Big Band vocalist, he appeared on a number of recordings as a background and primary male vocalist with and without credit.
These were two very talented men, heaven must be a lot more entertaining since their arrival just a months apart.
Hal Smith did not do the voice of Barney Rubble and Bam Bam on the Flintstones. Mel Blanc did those voices.
+Dick Short Hal Smith was the ORIGINAL Barney.....listening comprehension is not your strong point I see smh.
arspraestigium1 iconic as Davey and Goliath? I'm sure most people would disagree. I think his most iconic role outside of the Andy Griffith Show is Mr Whittaker on Adventures in Odyssey. More people have heard of Adventures in Odyssey than Davey and Goliath, especially since AIO is still going strong and Davey and Goliath isn't. And people who grew up with him as Mr Whittaker have a lot of respect for him and regard him as the "real Mr Whittaker".
He says he did voice Barney Rubble. Is he lying?
You should have heard him in the Andy Griffith episode when he was much younger. You think you're tearing up now.......
I thought it was a voice over. He made me tear up. The passion he put into his singing was so heartfelt.
I DID hear him when he was much younger--which is WHY it is so powerful now.
@@jimquantic that is exactly how I felt while listening to this. The journey of life shines through in this ‘91 version.
Jack had a sweet sweet voice....I'm a heavy metal fan , A progressive rocker for years but always glad to hear Jack sing..... RIP
My kids remember Hal Smith as John 'Avery Whitaker on "Adventures in Odyssey" Very talented
Jack Prince was an AMAZING singer. He had a warmth with his delivery that was unique. Loved his Andy Griffith character so much, I named one of my children after that character.
I think I know Moonshine Jordan. Is she your daughter?
Someone's cutting onions. If only songs were performed like this today
Jack Prince had an amazing voice!
Joe Casson Surely you jest. He was in his early 70’s in this video and he still sounded awesome.
@@justachristiansoldier9609 you're so right! Anyone will loose some of their voice as they age...some loose most of their singing voice. But Mr Prince STILL sounded great even though he was in his 70's. Beautiful voice!!
His voice and very presence will live for eternity...
After. 28. Yrs. Jack. Prince. Still have the golden Angelic. Voice. I seen that. Episode. And. Oh Hal. Smith. Fell. Asleep Thu out the whole show
I just got done watching that episode. 😊
Beautiful, i love this man.
+ELVIS FAN Always great to see another Elvis fan too :~)
TCB
Just saw Jack sing on The Andy Griffith Show! 🧡
In 1991 he still sounds just as as good as he did on the Andy Griffith show 😊
What a treat.. I have GOT to add Jack Prince to my vinyl collection..
Awesome! Sounds the same after 30+ years.
It really touches our hearts. Time and age can't remove the sweet eternal goodness contained here. A goodness we all look forward to being part of one day.
I saw the old Andy Griffith rerun last night when he did this song. Lovely voice. There were a lot of talented people on that show, like JIm Nabors, this guy, and even Andy Griffith himself.
The darlings were great also.
Even those are reruns, I still love watching the show
Mr. Prince still sounded so amazing!
Both guys are were really great actors .
Such a tearjerker and wow what a beautiful performance.
"I don't wanna be a dead hero, I wanna be a live ME!"
RAFE AND OTIS AMERICAN ICONS FROM, YOU KNOW. 9/6/22 GOTTA GO HERE COMES ANOTHER EPISODE OFF THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW I'M LOVING IT!!!!!
Brings tears to my eye… from the beauty of the song and the memory of the show. So much talent!
He does have a great voice. I watched that episode just last night. Hate the snooty people hosting the show but they were shown a thing or two. This is one of my fave episodes all due to this man's voice. Nice!
What a voice, after all those years
Funny, seeing the moonshiners and the town drunk together (manufacturer and customer).
"And I ain't made any moonshine since.... well, not so's you could tell."
😂
Brilliant!! He still has it for sure!!
Beautiful Voice..❤️😎
Dear God Bless them all in Jesus name...amen
One of the songs that will be played at my funeral someday! Probably from the original A .G. show itself. 😢
I absolutely love this. Jack Prince was so special.
This makes me so sad. Almost everyone I have ever loved is gone. And when you realize that there are a lot less days in front of the horse than in back of the cart.
What a voice! Just a few short years before he passed, too. Rest in peace, Mr. Prince and Mr. Smith... May you both be looking down on us all from where you are at.
Just watched this episode with my wife and 8 year old son. "Rafe Hollister Sings" Season 3. Good stuff!
Wow .. I learned these two men.. where more of my childhood than I thought!! Jack singing made my chest swell and tears to my eyes!
What great talent.
I never get tired of this song even 60 yrs. Later.
I was not familiar with Jack Prince until I heard him singing on the Andy Griffith Show a couple of years ago. I was impressed and he really touched me. Had to look him up. What a voice!
Me too!
this show always blesses me
Amazing 👏👏👏👏!!!
My absolute favorite episode...Rafe sings. Such a blessing, such talent, heart and soul.
He still sounds good. Can't believe he never became a singer-celebrity. Beautiful voice!
When I heard "Rafe Hollister" sing this song on The Andy Griffith Show, and the way Andy played the guitar...my heart! Just so, so beautiful. He still sounded great here. This song and "There Is A Time" by The Darlings, are my two all-time favorites of all the songs performed on The Andy Griffith Show. I'm so glad I was raised watching this show with my Mom. Andy Griffith was such a good, God-fearing man.
Voice is amazing.
Lord have mercy I love this! 😭😭😭😭😭 Damn I can't believe I just found out about it.
What a beautiful voice he had!! Blew my mind when I was watching Andy Griffith Show.
Awesome, awesome stuff right here!!💜💜💜💜💜💜
OMG. Wonderful.
I love this....
amazing....one of my favorite Andy Griffith shows
Almost exactly 30 yrs since he sang with Andy, and his voice still beautiful! But to see them both as little old men made me sad. Also made me realize that Otis and Rafe were both older in Andy Griffith than I thought they were. At least 10 yrs older. Because 30 yrs is a long time, but it also isn’t. When someone dies at 30, we are certainly not saying they lived a nice full life. We are saying they were way too young. See?
Jack Prince was an amazing singer. If he has passed on, one thing for sure is that he is a sorely missed man. God rest his soul.
My Southern heart is in tears.......Beautiful y'all. God bless you all🙏
WOW what an amazing voice still after all these years
9 years ago lol and you still get a like. I watch A.G every night including tonight :) Barney gave Andy and Mayberry more problems than any of the crooks. I have his name in my email.
I along with a number of friends and family we’re blessed to see him at one of the very last Andy Griffith Mayberry reunions in the early 90’s. He sang the same song and was dressed in the same manner. The Darlings (Dillards) E T Bass along with so many others. An event I shall never ever forget 😊
The older the violin,the sweeter the music.thought
Jack sung it better this time.
Love ya Otis& all Mayberry!!
Seems like yesterday. 👍 Time really passes.
Brought tears and laughter to My 27 old son and myself. They both will forever be remembered.❤️
Loved him on the Andy Griffith Show.
Awesome singer!!
He still sounds AWESOME! Put my Grandson to sleep to this Tonight. Thanks! Beautiful voice!!!!!
I wish I could like everyone comment, but I feel you all.
Damn near want to play this at my funeral..
Rest on Supreme..!!
Gabriel is gonna blow that 📯.
An amazing voice. Gave me chills just listening to this again.
The two best supporting actors on TAGS!
What a great pair. I watch Andy Griffith every night on my cd collection while lying in bed. I love going back to Mayberry I wish the set was still up.
My Aunt was telling me about this because she was friends with someone there and she was telling me about the host being one of my grand dad's good friends. I was shocked because I absolutely love Andy Griffith! I live in Tennessee and I got to meet goober in Gatlinburg. I love him. Sweet guy!!
Two great actors from the Andy Griffith Show.
Interestingly they both passed away in the sane month only few years after this. (Both died in January 1994)
Beautiful beautiful!!! He was a marvelous singer!!!
OMG!!! How beautiful still!
He had a Beautiful voice!!! What a Gift!!!
Outstanding!,
Sounds just as wonderful as he did on Andy griffith many years before.

Raffle's voice is STILL SO BEAUTIFUL after all these years!
Beautiful song by a beautiful man. RIP Mr. Prince.
So many great talents from the Andy Griffis show!!; I loved when Raif Hollister sings!
I loved listening to this on the Andy Griffith Show!
I was just flipping the stations and started watching Andy Griffith big fan for years. Ralph Hollister episode the best that man can sing. Brings back memories, ball flipping the channels I even saw David and Goliath, something we all grew up with . America could learn something, common courtesy and good values.
Really nice tribute to a great show.
Still gives me chills. Beautiful!
