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.

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!

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.

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.

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!!!

70's Europena star.......2001-10-19

These songs reminded me of my childhood, when my Mom used to crank up the stereo to listen to Joe Dassin. Great love songs, though some seem sort of cheesy these days.

THE SON OF A MOVIE DIRECTOR.......2000-10-25

If there is a singer well suited to a greatest hits album,it is JOE DASSIN who was always snobed by most critics, but fortunally for him, the public loved him.JOE DASSIN was a hit maker, and i see nothing wrong with that because a singer after all wants to be heard right?.This is the type of record you can put in your cd to relax after a hard day. Hits with nothing too deep.

French has never sounded better!.......2000-08-21

His graceful voice, memorable and memorizable melodies, magical romanticism of the simple lyrics -- all make for a most pleasurable listening experience. It seems that repeat (and repeated, and repeated) listening only makes the songs better. Dassin's music is the very essence of that which is romantic.

well worth the wait.......2000-07-17

This is an excellent collection of songs, I almost gave up on receiving it though. The music is timeless and several songs are in english.

Immortal music.......2000-07-06

Even if Joe Dasin died over 20 years ago, his music is still just as popular and just as alive in many parts of the world. It is a testimony to the quality and the uniqueness of his talent. Growing up listening to radio in French, all these melodies are very familiar to me. However, when I moved to Latvia many years ago, it was a great surprise to see that almost everyone in the ex-Soviet Union knows many of Joe Dassin's songs. They sing them with the wrong words, but for them, for many years, he was a symbol of the West, and everyone looked up to him. He was one of the only singners from the West allowed into the Soviet Union. In this part of the world, we still hear Jos Dassin on the radio daily, and it seems like he never left us.

Master of Melody.......2005-04-30

Pourcel reminds me of Montavani,and Paul Muriat only better. He takes a beautiful melody and puts his own stamp on it. His String section will knock you right off your Chair!! I first heard him back in the 60's when he won best song award at the Cannes Film Festival with his song "Mercie Cherie"!! He is good if you like melody's!!

French "Pop" at its best........2005-11-24

Jean Sablon's "Le Fiacre" was why I bought this CD but there is so much more pleasant music on it, and well transferred to CD too. A bonus, thanks to Google, is that it is easy to find all the words, and a rough translation, of each I've tried so far.

A Reissue with Quality.......2005-05-26

This is almost identical in content to another CD I purchased years ago, but the sound quality is much, much better. I am unsure whether the producers simply got their hands on better masters, or whether a different filtering technique is in use. For pre-WW II work the sound quality is very pleasant. This CD is an excellent introduction to the music that captivated the world between wars; my non-French-speaking friends have found themselves enjoying it. It may also serve as a gateway to the purchase of individual artists' volumes. Highly recommended!

Here Are 20 Great Songs that Define a True French Popular Legend!

Customer Reviews:

BUY THIS CD.......2003-12-11

Dalida had a unique voice, was a superb interpreter, and a great performer. It is no wonder that she is the 3rd biggest selling female singing artist of all time after only Madonna and Celine Dion (I like Madonna; Celine...blecch). Madonna has also stated she likes Dalida. One wonders if Dalida had made a strong effort to conquer the USA how much higher on that list she could have been. Anyway. This CD is a great intro to Dalida and the CD that has led me to buy 15 more Dali CDs! The compilation covers many of her big hits. ALL are great. My favorites are Il venait d'avoir 18 ans (about an older woman sleeping with an 18 y.o. boy); Mourir sur scene (she says... I want to die on stage); Soleil soleil (great dance number about the sun); A ma maniere (an astonishing and highly personal vocal performance--one of Dali's best for sure); Bambino; Ciao ciao bambina.

Classics!.......2002-10-12

Wonderful collection including songs from both 'Orlando' & 'Barclay' Labels. Early recordings like "Bambino" are treasures, her personal "Mourir Sur Scene" & "Pour Te Dire Je T'aime" are Classics!
If you don't know much about Dalida, this is the CD for you.
