Before Mayberry, Andy Griffith was a stand-up comic with a thick Carolina drawl and a knack for spinning a yarn. 'Ain't It So' is a short, folksy monologue from his 1950s Capitol and Colonial Records run -- the wide-eyed country boy puzzling out the everyday with that perfectly timed pause and a singsong 'ain't it so?' Pure plainspoken Americana from the man who would soon become Sheriff Taylor of Mayberry.
