Founder and first musical director of The New Christy Minstrels. Singer and guitarist and folk musician who performed solo mixing folk music and Broadway tunes before the "folk craze" of 1958 (The Kingston Trio, The Highwaymen) had him founding the upbeat The New Christy Minstrels in the early 1960s. The New Christy Minstrels took their name from Christy's Minstrels, a performing group founded by Edwin Pearce Christy (1815-62). In 1842 Christy, a Philadelphia-born showman, organized Christy's Minstrels, an ensemble that turned Negro spirituals, contemporary popular songs and seemingly anything else with a tune that could be carried into a huge sensation. One of the group's first hits was Woody Guthrie's "This Land Is Your Land." Their debut album in 1962 for Columbia Records won a Grammy and went to #19 on the Billboard charts. A hit single off their second album, "Green, Green", hit #3 in 1963. Sparks left the group in May 1963 after growing tired of the demands of arranging, managing, supervising the group, as well as performing. The group disbanded in 1971 after such minor hits as "Chim Chim Cheree" (#20) from the Mary Poppins (1964) soundtrack. He recently returned and performed with a revived group of "Minstrels." His first wife, Jackie Miller, was one-half of Jackie & Gayle (Gayle Caldwell and was part of the original ten-member lineup of The New Christy Minstrels in 1961. Gayle came in later as a replacement.
