Something lovely.......2003-10-27

This is an interesting little record and one of my favourites. Ok: La vie en rose, Les feuilles mortes, Mon manége a moi, Sous le ciel de Paris... Sounds very familiar and safe. These are classics, so many times done. But here they are really beautifully sung, Montand's voice is so close to perfection as it can be: soft but strong, moving lightly and surely, a true professional and still very sincere.

There are at least two very good collections on Amazon, '36 titres' and live recording from Olympia 1981, but both collections - as well as most collections! - lack some highlights of Montand's career. C'est si bon, the alluring, very sexy song as done by Montand is here, so are the beautiful ballads Le chevalier de Paris, L'ame des poètes and Sa jeunesse. Nat 'King' Cole recorded Le chevalier de Paris ("Ah, the apple trees..."), but Montand was at least as good. Since I've always admired Cole's voice and a very similar way of singing, I don't want to say, which is better. Sa jeunesse is Aznavour's song and this time I have no hesitation: Montand did it better! Aznavour is a wonderful songwriter and singer, but Montand's voice and his skillful, tender way of singing really shines here. And of course, Les feuilles mortes is wonderful. He recorded it several times, this is a one of the best recordings, though I like most the live one done in Olympia 1981.

If you like French music, if you like Montand: this is a very good buy, though it may not seem like it, given the small number of songs. But they are very good, some of them even hard to find. Sa jeunesse is one of the hardest ones - and in itself worth the money. And to me Montand gave new life and meaning to songs like La vie en rose and Sous le ciel de Paris, usually heard by Piaf.

Something new from Montand.......2006-09-05

This cd came to me weeks ago from Thelma, who was the editor and did a wonderful work as usual. She will never be satisfied with just advertising the cd, again she included a short translation of each song, a line or two to let non-French speaking public to know what the song is about. Many thanks for that to Thelma.

I already have a good collection of Yves Montand, but this cd is exceptional, because it includes some previously unheard live recordings - very good quality - and two Italian songs that haven't been available in cd's. "Bella ciao" - the partisan song - and "Amor dammi quel fazzolettino", both catchy tunes. The latter one suddenly made me realize what Montand reminded me of: Dean Martin, whose voice also seemed to have that easy, happy tone. But sorry Americans, Montand was more skilful, he carried his voice from low tones to flute-like high ones as if it was the easiest thing in the world and that relaxed feeling disguised the fact that he was very sharp and precise when it came to rhythm and melody. I keep listening to "L'addition" with its jazzy and not at all easy arrangement and Montand singing so easily up to the point where he sings that wonderful, high "Égale" so freely. The more I know about singing the more I appreciate Montand, though Jacques Brel is still my idol.

You have here some of Montand's best, like "Barbara", a song so important for him and lots of French people, that sometimes he had to stop singing in the middle of it because it made him cry. "Barbara" tells about the sorrows and pains of second world war to French people. And there are the rare ones, as I mentioned. Some most famous ones are missing, such as "Les feuilles mortes" but if you have any Montand collection, you have that song anyway, don't you? If you don't have "Est-ce ainsi que les hommes vivent?", you need this, that song is worth it. And so is "Bella ciao", which isn't on other cd's - as far as I know.

Customer Reviews:

He also sings!.......2006-08-14

This is a very good collection of Yves Montand songs. Many of them have very memorable melodies, which will remain in your head for days at a time ("Trois Petites Note De Musique," for example). Several are laid-back, sexually charged jazz tunes, featuring seductive saxophones and that ubiquitous instrument of French music, the accordion. Also very French are the lyrics for some of the songs here; we certainly wouldn't find a song about a cat ("La Chat De La Voisine") or a bicycle ("La Bicyclette") in the US, unless it is children's music. Montand might not have the best singing voice or vocal range, though his scratchy baritone lends itself well to this type of music. Although songs range from playful melodies to the brassy "Coucher Avec Elle," the overall mood of this collection suits an intimate evening of wine and dinner with a lover. For those more familiar with Montand as an actor rather than a singer, this music should come as a pleasant surprise. Some very good stuff.

SEVEN FAMOUS SONGS ARE THERE.......2001-11-09

It starts very well with four songs forever associated with him.YVES MONTAND was always the most AMERICAN inclined FRENCH artist of his generation;he fashioned his persona after his boyhood idol FRED ASTAIRE.Then the collection mixes the good and the not so good(perhaps with the intention of a volume 2).All the fans of MONTAND know that DANS LES PLAINES DU FAR WEST(his first song),C'EST SI BON(made famous by LOUIS ARMSTRONG),LES FEUILLES MORTES(in it's original version) and BATTLING JOE belong in a greatest hit collection among a few others.As we often say, we can't have everything, even if we could if music was not primarly an industry.

Superb.......1998-09-19

Yves' folksy melody brings you back to France through time and space. It always reminds me the romantic scent in the air of Paris and the country roads. It's my favorite, even though all my French friends said this is their parents' music.

Very Good CD. Not as good as Rue St. Vincent from Rushmore........2002-07-02

I bought this CD hoping to get more songs like Rue St. Vincent, which I heard on the Rushmore Motion Picture Soundtrack (get that movie and that DVD!).

This CD is still very good and songs are mellow and romantic, but none quite so mellow or romantic as Rue St. Vincent. If anyone knows where to get that song or others like it, please post it here.

Une tres bonne distillation.......2000-12-21

If I had to select but one set from my Montand collection to take with me to a desert island, it would be this one. It is sublime.

A Paris, w/ Yves Montand.......2000-06-22

If you are an Yves Montand beginner or a French music starter, this will not meet your expectation for absorbing the sense of "Paris" and its loveliness. There are, however, a few familiar songs like C'est Si Bon, A Paris, Les Feuilleur Mortes, etc. that will offset for the less soul touching tunes and will give you a nice sensation of being in Paris. For the Yves Montand's fans, the voice is warm and his taste in presentation is charming.

Almost perfect overview of his repertoire.......2001-07-06

This double CD is very good for anyone who wants to get an overview of Yves Montand's career. The only disapointment on this CD would be that "Hollywood Odyssey" is the english version; those who want to hear his french repertoire would have preferred the french version of this song. This detail nonwithstanding, we have here the best way I know of to get "the most Montand" without having to buy a whole series of CD. Recommended.
