Rating: - Fabulous Aznavour and the translations
As I am lucky enough to have the 3 Aznavour english CDs this was culled from, I would like to echo all the other reviews of the wonder that is Aznavour in english. I would just like to put in a word for the main translator of the words into such idiomatically correct english. The english lyrics are in the main the work of Herbert Kretzmer. He is now mainly known for the magnificent job he did on the english translation of Les Miserables, also lyrics for the Peter Sellers/Sophia Loren Goodness, Gracious ... Read More

Rating: - The best of his English language music
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 ... Read More

Rating: - The Ultimate Crooner
If you want class, Aznavour is it!
The variety and integrity of this compilation of songs is stunning, a must for every dinner party for the 40+s.
We all know "She" - a worthy classic in anyone's book - but try "It Will Be My Day" for humour, "To My Daughter" for Nostalgia, and "Ave Maria" for strength.
The backing orchestra is superb, and, although admittedly not in the original French, the lyrics translate well.
All in all a fabulous buy, and - just for fun - listen to track two "Yesterday, ... Read More

Rating: - Pure listening pleasure, Charles Aznavour- the very best
The words, the music, the memories these songs can invoke in almost anyone. Those who loved and lost, those who lost and loved again, those who loved and kept it. It's all there and Charles's haunting voice can move you to tears. I think 'What makes a man a man' should be the anthem for Gay Liberation, the words will break your heart. My favourite is Happy Anniversary because I can imagine my husband thinking those words when we reached our twentyith. Wonderful.
