5 out of 5 stars Voila, Le Maitre.......2007-01-06

I recently "discovered" Charles Aznavour in the used vinyl section at a local second hand shop. There I occasionally find gems while picking through the weathered relics of bygone decades. The same shop once yielded a now-beloved Nana Mouskouri album from the sixties, with songs in French. My French is passable at best, but it's easy for me to pick up on the romanticism of post-war French popular music, a romanticism which is now largely passe, apart from serving as background music at Macaroni Grill or the Olive Garden. I just love songs in French. Anyway, the Aznavour album was packaged basically like an album by Perry Como or some other "popular singer" of the era, but I sensed from the extensive liner notes that the lyrics (all written by Aznavour himself) were the work of a true artist. I hoped that his voice would not prove as dated as the packaging. I took a chance. I was not disappointed.

The production value reminds me of the fore-mentioned Nana Mouskouri album of the sixties. Some of it sounds a little Austin Powers, a little swinging sixties, but I don't mind. Musicians from that era seem much more versatile, more well-versed in all kinds of music from all over the world. The featured musical fills, whether by violin, accordion, what-have-you, are so tasty, so expert that they're almost boring; you take them for granted. Then there is the heavy orchestration, the notorious 40 piece violin sections. Fortunately none of it overwhelms the man's delivery and songwriting skills. His singing style does not sound dated in the least. It sounds timeless. He is masculine and strong, but not overly so, like Sinatra, who to me often sounds ponderous and self-important,dated like a WWII relic. Aznavour's delivery is light, subtle and rich, passionate yet disciplined. He never borders on self-parody, like Sinatra often does. He never displays that cheesy/smarmy rat pack/Las Vegas/lounge style.

The man can swing. You will feel it. It will move you, and you will want to move to its rhythms. Without having delved too far into the lyrics, I can say that thematically they are generally what you would expect. Things that would sound trite or clichéd in English sound heart-breaking and, well, French in this music. He sings of being 20 and the bittersweet memory of a woman who left him in Venice. Of poor artists painting their nude lovers in Monmartre, of the flowers, cafes and bakeries in a city that is now gone as he returns as an old man. Sad clowns with smiling faces--that kind of thing. Don't worry, it's all in French, and actually rather poignant.

I see that Aznavour is still going strong at 81. Guys like this are coolest when their music is not considered cool. Give it a try. I would recommend "Que C'est Triste Venise," and "La Boheme" as representative. Be open-minded, because this man has the gift of the muse.

5 out of 5 stars C'est magnifique!.......2007-01-04

All the songs here are wonderful -- I can listen to it over and over again, and still enjoy it!

5 out of 5 stars A Velvet Voice.......2007-01-03

I am a loooooooooooong-time fan of this master of French love songs, and I was not disappointed. There are several songs that I just play over and over. I think what I love about his music is that I don't have to understand a word he says to understand his heart. He sings with his heart and that overrides any language barrier. His voice feels like something liquid warmth massaging you.

5 out of 5 stars Charles, Je t'adore.......2005-10-25

You can see from the title I am a devoted Aznavour fan and have been for 40 years. I have attended several of his performances and even met him once briefly. He is an extraordinary singer/songwriter and performer. He is 81 years old now and although he still records, he doesn't tour much outside France as he used to. He has, however, made a number of DVDs. Unfortunately, they have only been released in PAL format. I have so many Aznavour recordings. I bought this because it has a nice compilation for CD but it is by no means definitive. It's interesting, because I also have the Spanish version of this CD, "Sus Mas Grandes Exitos" which has the same cover, but a slightly different mix of songs. The French version omits "Que C'est Triste Venise" and "Mourir D'Amour," two of my favorite songs, but they are included on the Spanish. There are so many more than 20 songs which I consider Aznavour classics, that it would take many more CDs to contain. That said, I highly recommend this CD for both the diehard fan and the casual listener. It's a wonderful example of the work of this extraordinary man. He has never made a bad recording.

5 out of 5 stars OUTSTANDING.......2005-05-01

You can take Edith Piaf, Gilbert Becaud, Yves Montand and put them together and don't even come close to Aznavour. Had the distinct pleasure of seeing him at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas, as well as, the Olympia Theater in Paris, France, and other venues throughout Europe. Aznavour is the quintessence of the interpreter of songs (ala Sinatra and Ella), as well as, a most prolific writer of songs in the realm of Jimmy Webb, Gershwin, etc. His emotions and sentivities are eveident in EVERY performance that I have had the pleasure to witness. NONE BETTER!!!!! In addition, these traits are evident in very recording available by him. BRAVO!!! BRAVO!!! BRAVO!!!

This album has many of his best songs. Well worth the cost. It will be a collector's item.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful.......2007-02-01

Charles Aznavour's music is beautiful, his songs are soulful, and the way he portrays them is heartfelt. We continue to listen to this album and look forward to enjoying others like it.

5 out of 5 stars Formidable!.......2007-01-05

English version is almost as good as his french, but when he sings in french there is not enough stars.

5 out of 5 stars Formidable.......2006-09-22

I saw Mr. Aznavour perform recently during his farewell tour. This CD will give me fond memories of the songs he sang in English. He is a wonderful performer in any language. This CD will give those who do not speak French access to the beautiful songs he has written and his unforgettable voice.

3 out of 5 stars The french frank sinatra???.......2006-01-09

I got this CD because the cover looked interesting and well, based on my gut instinct i gave it a chance. It's OK
I mean i'm not a huge Sinatra fan and it sounds like that to me...a french sinatra in this case.

I guess you just have to be into it because in the end putting your tastes aside it's good.

Happy anniversary and la boheme are the highlights in my opinion.

4 out of 5 stars Charles Aznavour - 20 Great Songs in English.......2006-08-04

I ordered it and hope I like it. I've only heard him sing "The Old Fashioned Way," which I love, and hope it's on this album. It would be nice if Amazon would list the songs on the CDs they sell. I was close to not buying it because I want "The Old Fashioned Way" and don't know if it's on this CD as I haven't received it yet. However, I know he has a marvelous voice, and feel certain that the songs will be winners.Can't rate it until I hear it.

5 out of 5 stars Aznavourian...chanson d'amour........2006-05-03

Like Cher,who is an Armenian origin too,Aznavour has really,really a one-of-a-kind voice.
I like numerous great artists and Aznavour is a singer that can melt your heart away with his songs.
As music is a communication,he sings romantic,passionate and melancholy songs of easy listening for all ages.
The stage is his life and his pronounciation in english is easy to understand.

Charles is much,much loved in Europe by all sweet melodies fan.Often he's invited to various festival as SPECIAL guest
and his performance is always an 'extraordinary' amber that burst into a masterpiece of art.

This CD in English consisted fabulous songs.

5 out of 5 stars An International Treasure.......2004-04-04

Charles Aznavour is a star of immense proportion, unique in his ability to emote in song what other artists cannot. He is a talent unmatched in his ability to stir up emotion in the listener with his melodic and sometimes sad vocals. Too bad that he is not as well-known in America. To listen to Charles Aznavour is an experience of one of the greatest chanteurs in music.

5 out of 5 stars The best of his English language music.......2004-01-17

Charles Aznavour was slow to achieve success even in his native France. Born in 1924, he was already in his thirties when he gained recognition. There have been many compilations of his French recordings and they are well worth a listen, but this set focuses on his English language recordings. One track (I didn't see the time go by) is from 1983 while the rest were recorded between 1971 and 1978. Charles never recorded covers - the song here titled Ave Maria is his own song, not the standard. He wrote all his own material in French though he sought help in translating his songs into English. As he once said, songs are hard to translate if you still want them to rhyme in a different language.

Understandably, Charles never made the same impact in Britain and America that he did in France, but he was very popular for a few years in both countries, with hugely successful live concerts in both countries in the sixties. He had just two UK hits - The old fashioned way (1973) and She (1974), the latter going all the way to number one. This was a rare achievement for a French record though Charles was not the first Frenchman to top the UK charts. Serge Gainsbourg did it in 1969 with Je T'aime moi non plus, a duet with English born but French based Jane Birkin that was only made available in the UK because it had been banned in France.

Although his UK hits are classic love songs, Charles sang about many other topics too. It will be my day is about an unsuccessful, obviously inspired by his own struggle for success. They fell is about Armenia, a country that Charles was deeply interested in. But it is the love songs that Charles is best remembered for. Apart from She and The old fashioned way, Yesterday when I was young is probably the best-known song on this collection, but The happy days, How sad Venice can be, No I could never forget, You've got to learn, I didn't see the time go by and Ave Maria are among the many other great songs here.

Charles showed the world that France is well capable of producing world-class singer-songwriters - this collection provides but a small sample of his artistry.

3 out of 5 stars Not quite the quality that I expected.......2006-08-21

I have been wanting a Charles Aznavour collection CD for a while and thought that this would be it. I was particularly interseted in some key songs of his, such as L'amour cest comme un jour, which is not the original version I have on an old vinyl. This was particularly dissapointing. Overall the quality of the recording lacks the bass (tone) I associate with versions of Aznavour I have heard on older vinyl recordings.

5 out of 5 stars Great music.......2005-11-16

I love Aznavour - this is its real deal. I have bought other Aznavour but this one is his original music in French. And it has its best songs

5 out of 5 stars Everything you could want from an Aznavour collection........2004-12-30

In French, that is. This doesn't include any of the English-language versions of his classics, but is otherwise an excellent overview of his 40+ year career. And even though my French is entry-level at best, I prefer to hear Aznavour in his native tongue.

5 out of 5 stars "Isabelle Mon Amour...".......2007-04-30

Edith Piaf once gave Aznavour an advice to embrace his voice and accept its limitations. This, Aznavour did with style and a vibrato. This CD has many of Aznavour's hits including my favourite tune of all time "Isabelle". The man is not only a singer, but a wonderful poet, and an artist. He gave a captivating performance @ 80 + y/o last summer in Los Angeles. Attend his show, if you still can. To all French Chanson lovers, listen to "Isabelle" it inspired me to learn French...like Aznavour said " It is a poetic song about a girl with a very very very sweet name..."

5 out of 5 stars A "Classic" performance.......2006-07-14

Aznavour has been referred as the French Frank Sinatra. His voice and hi passion for music are very well presented on this classical CD. Old songs that will never become forgotten. If you are a romantic and love music in Spanish this CD is one to have in your collection.

5 out of 5 stars Lo mejor de Aznavour.......2005-10-27

Tuve la oportunidad de adquirir esta versión de sus Éxitos
y quedé sumamente complacido. Me encantó la Mamma... realmente
es uno de mis favoritos lleno de nostalgia, que nos invade hasta llenarnos de sensibilidad, igual digo de La Bohemia "La Boheme". No dejen de adquirirlo, y resultará una experiencia que nunca olvidarán, sino que lo querrán oir una, y otra, y otra vez, hasta que cada nota quede grabada en sus corazones.

5 out of 5 stars 1 in a 1,000,000.......2001-10-25

An incredibly prolific and wonderful songwriter, who's songs have been interpreted by numerous artists, no one can sing Aznavour like Aznavour...his powerful, tremulous voice is so packed with emotion, you don't have to understand French to feel these songs in your heart. Songs of love, and love lost, a mother dying, a woman who's let herself go after many years of marriage...slices of life, told with so much beauty and passion.

I had the good fortune to attend Aznavour's first U.S. concert at Carnegie Hall. He's an electrifying performer, and after 40 years, I still remember it...the best concert I've ever been to. Some of the magic is in this CD...favorites include "La Mamma", "Qui", "La Boheme", and "Les Deux Guitares".
This is an excellent compilation, and makes a great "first Aznavour CD"...I recommend staying away from the English language recordings, and let the soul of his songs in French captivate you, and you might, like me, be a fan forever.

5 out of 5 stars My Favorite Aznavour Album.................2000-11-19

Chansons D'Or is a beautifully romantic album to own. Each time I listen I am transported back to my vacation in France. Aznavour is a true artist in his singing and song writing. I love each song and listen to the album often without tiring of it. This is a true classic that all genres can appreciate!

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful even if you can't understand French !.......2000-07-04

Dubbed Charles 'As-no-voice' by English comedians in the 70's, this man in fact has a fantastic voice. I bought this a month ago and haven't stopped playing it, great for listening to alone, when friends are over but most of all it is pure romance and French nostalgia. Buy it , you won't regret it !

5 out of 5 stars 20 chansons D'or.......2000-06-11

Trousse-Chemise is the best, this CD.

4 out of 5 stars This thing is cool.......2000-01-24

My favorite song was For Me Formidable -- my French teacher is obsessed with it. It's cool.
