Brad Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 RIP. When I lived in Spain, we would hear his latest songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GA Russell Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 RIP. Like Paul, I too think of Shoot the Piano Player. https://www.amazon.com/Shoot-Piano-Player-Criterion-Collection/dp/B000BC8SWO/ Years ago I picked up a CD called Jazznavour. I'll look for it tonight.

Teasing the Korean Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 I was reading Aznevour's obit this morning silently, and I quietly said aloud, "France's Frank Sinatra." My wife heard me and replied, "I thought it was Francis Albert Sinatra." RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyril Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 Did Frank Sinatra write his own songs??? Aznavour, best known for songs in his native French also sang in English, Italian, Spanish, German and Armenian, selling more than 180 million records. His personal style was that of a crooner, backed by a jazzy big band, and singing of love and nostalgia. RIP, Charles. (The last of the troubadours). Thanks for your music ....
