Cyril MacPhee's fourth recording, "When I Say I Do", released in May 1998, consists of 11 original songs, the majority written by Nova Scotian writers, a Lennon and McCartney number and 1 traditional song, all done in his unique style. The album is enhanced by a rich mix of guest artists (actually 20 in total) including Cindy Church (Quartette), J.P. Cormier (1998 ECMA Award Winner), Gordie Sampson (phenominal quitar, Real World), Curly Boy Stubbs (of Stan Rogers' fame, a.k.a. Paul Mills), and Bruce MacPhee (Slainte Mhath) all of whom accent Cyril's tremendous lead vocal delivery. Lend to that the impeccable production of Paul Mills and you have an album sure to strike a chord with every one.
