Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66: Scarborough Fair [1973]
Ed Bogas arrangement featuring Merl Saunders on keys: Scarborough Street Fair [1973]

By request. For Jason and anyone else with nothing more than a passing interest.

Personally, I am partial to the Street Fair version. But maybe that's just because I rather enjoy street fairs. Rather.

  7. No, Sheridan. I love street fairs. I love the handicrafts and sausage and peppers stands.

    I also feel badly for people who drink too much water, too often.
