Details: Amazon.ca Published on the occasion of the publication of the second complete Trenet, this compilation, labeled Platinum, includes the original versions of the hits of the other great Charles. It could as well have been called "20 years - 20 hits", since it takes us from 1937 to 1957. It must be said that after this date the poet entered a certain maquis. So let's savor chronologically the first years of the leaping Charles with "Je chante" (1937), "Y a d'la joie" (1938, created by Maurice Chevalier), "Boum" (1938) which the singing madman will also perform in English, "The Sun and the Moon" (1939), "What Remains of Our Loves" (1943), "The Sea" (1946), "Douce France" (1947), "My Young Years" (1950) , "The Soul of Poets" (1951), "At the Garage Door" (1955), "Nationale 7" (1955), "I love the Music Hall" (1955), "The Extraordinary Garden" (1957)... At a time when all the French and international artists from Jacqueline Français to Sylvie Vartan, from Frank Sinatra to Harry Connick Junior, have sung the Master, let's play the salmon and go back to the source of contemporary song. --AB
