| The New Christy Minstrels - THE NEW CHRISTY MINSTRELS is the world-famous, much-loved musical group from the ‘60’s. Randy Sparks, founder of The New Christy Minstrels says, “ Whenever I see the confused look on the face of someone younger than fifty, I say, ‘Maybe it’ll help to know that Kenny Rogers came out of our group, and John Denver came through our farm-team system. Even Steve Martin got his start and became a comic on our company’s stage. We have a Grammy, we’ve sold millions of records, and best of all, we’re still at it. Saturday February 21, 2009 |
