    My life has been so much richer since I found out about Larry Sparks' music. This is the way Bluegrass (and Country) ought to sound. Being from Northeast Tennessee, the music takes me home. It sounds like Southwest Virginia. Maybe that comes from coming from the Stanley branch, I don't know. But, Larry's got something else. And the Gospel songs are my favorites. God bless you Mr. Sparks.

    @@huliniswhoiam Yes, Joe did tell a few stories about their early days playing in the bars around Dayton & Hamilton Ohio. He never really said all that much about Larry's personality. I've formulated some of my own opinions about that from different things I've heard from Larry's former band members, but I can't really say for certain. It's hard to understand a person without being around them outside of the music & business side of things. I do know that contrary to what we generally see & hear of him on stage, he seems pretty quiet & reserved off stage.
