  Parisian born, Charles Aznavour, the French troubadour, chanson tradition,  crooner of love songs , and actor often compared to Frank Sinatra whose performing career spaned 8 decades has died in his bath of natural causes @ 94 in Paris.

  Once a protege of the renowned singer Edith Paiff (Little Sparow)

  Aznavour endeared himself to music fans around the world, performing original songs in French, English, Spanish and Grerman languages, with his versatile lush lyrics and kinetic stage presence. He sang to sold out concert halls including New York, Los Angles, Montreal Las Vegas opening the Paris Hotel/Casino,after having written more than 1,000 song by his own estimate including mainstream classics 'La Boheme' and 'Yesterday When I was Young'. "She"
