Charles Aznavour and I

Charles Aznavour and I Once in Southgate, I bumped into him I apologised, so did he, and we continued on our way. Further down the street, I said to myself you touched a famous man, thought of running after him telling I knew who he was, but since he knew this already, he would think I was deluded. I later saw a picture of him on the door of a restaurant Where he had a “gig”; one is modern. The ticket price was high, and I didn`t care too much of his singing, his public was for the cognoscenti who had once been in Paris. Me, I like Edith Piaf we lived in similar streets.

Applause! Long gone, but I still listen to Edith Piaf almost every day (my late wife liked Charles Aznavour's "She"). Lucky we live in an age where they may be gone but their songs live on! Aloha! Rico
