Cafe de Paris 1930-41: 24 Accordion Classics

This is the real thing, all these recordings date from the 1930's and early 40's and have a delightful nostalgic atmosphere. Most of these tunes are in dance-time, and make you want to get up and join in the waltz ! The charm and exuberance of Parisian cafe-music is wonderfully captured in these expert performances. Some of the numbers are vocals, including an early Piaf hit. There is well over an hour of music on this disc, and all these recordings have been remastered, the sound is fresh and clear. This is a disc you won't get tired of - Highly Recommended !

Wanted this CD for atmospheric background at a Gift Fair.The tracks are upbeat and happy.l was hoping for accordion/violin only. A few warbly vocals crept in which l easily bypassed. Nothing raucous.Five stars to Walter for so kindly posting to me to arrive for my event.Brilliant personal customer service !

Good Stuff indeed.

I heard this type of music on the film "HUGO" and its realy french and summery and i thought im playing this in my garden. It realy is brilliant. I liked it straight away. Easy on the ear its now in my iphone and ipod and goes with me everywhere.

If I did not enjoy this record I would not have put in for a replacement!!it is excellent music for long distance driving.!!

As with my other purchase, it gets a bit repetitive after 10 minutes. I bought 2 slightly different cd's of French music after watching a movie. That was an impulse.

Wanted some music to accompany an AmDram production set in a French chateau in the 1930s. This was absolutely spot on, with a great variety of pieces. It significantly enhanced the production, and was very pleasant to listen to in its own right.

Already owned a copy. This one was for a family member, who is enjoying it greatly.
