I
was traveling the dusty paths of Scarborough Faire as I was wont to do,
when happy chance led me within earshot of Mr Phyfe. I found myself quite
unable to walk further as long as he was willing to entertain me with his
bardic tales. I was enamored of his voice and his talent, as he sang
Italian love songs, Mexican ballads, a sad Ukranian song about a gypsy
that moved me to tears despite my inability to understand a word of
Ukranian, along with plenty of Irish and Old English folk songs.

I asked which CD I should buy that
would most reflect what I had been enjoying listening to him sing, and he
suggested "Where Beauty Moves and Wit Delights," which another
fan who happened to be standing nearby enthusiastically endorsed. I
bought the CD and have been listening to it every day in my car. I'm
hoping to get back to Scarborough Faire before he leaves just so I can
see him again and buy another CD or two! After reading other fan letters
and reviews, little did I know how lucky I was to have him practically
all to myself that day!

I'm so glad I happened upon Mr Phyfe
at the faire, and am eagerly looking forward to crossing paths with him
again.

A new fan,

Nikki Rehman
