Treasures from THE MUSIC COLLECTION at The Willing Mind. By exclusive arrangement with The Grand Review.  Print size 18 x24 and works beautifully with an 18 x 24 frame, or custom framed as you see fit.

From a surprisingly small and certainly rare piece of sheet music in our collection, we present Aznavour & Pierre Roche during their swinging' cabaret days as this large print, digitally restored with much love.  This particular number has been a fun go to for me and my beloved, and hit the turntable frequently as the kids grew up.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Instead of attempting a review of who and what Charles Aznavour is to the world, with your permission and indulgence, I spin this little yarn........

Aznavour....................  Yes, I saved Charles Aznavour from being crushed to death at the stage door behind a theater on Times Square in the mid 90s.  I had just seen his show and was such a fan that for the first and only time in my life I'd surrendered to being Stage Door Johnny.  There was no one else there, and I was as goofy as a kid as I waited for him.  My wife was at home with our new baby son, and on a shelf near them was our collection of Aznavour LPs, quite the fish story's worth, and all gleaned over the years from better thrift shops along Philadelphia's Main Line.

The door opened and there was my guy, just over 5 feet tall and I would venture not much heavier than 100 pounds. His manager, in a long black overcoat, was close on his heels.  In a flash I knew something was wrong because Charles was looking right past my friendly, grinning 6'7" fan self at SOMETHING, and the look was terror.  Having worked security at punk clubs and discos in New York, London and Philly, I used my Spidey Sense and turned quickly in a way that left them an escape route between my body and a gargantuan concrete pillar as I physically confronted a tsunami of surprisingly beefy late middle aged French Canadian Aznavour fans, big gals with foam frothing from steely grins and lightning shooting out of their crazy crazed eye sockets... all yelling SHAAAAAAAAAARL!  SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAARL!!!!

A few more broadly spinning steps, legs wide and arms blocking, I got them to the limo waiting at the curb, Charles Aznavour looking up at me in the most amazing combination of 'thank yo thank you' and WOT A FUKKIN NIGHTMARE', his old manager looking intensely into my eyes and squeezing my arm with steely fingertips while hissing a breathy benediction, his coat a swirl of black that seemed to pause in the air as he disappeared sideways into the limo, sucking in after him the way an octopus body moves into a crevass just in time to miss the snap of a toothy fish. 

Into the night and off to Moscow.  Oh, Charles, if we ever share a pint somewhere, I'll suffer you through my rendition of Boule De Gomme or, perhaps, Les Cris de Ma Ville.  As always, unless there is someone else taller than me in the room I remain, your biggest fan.

A NOTE ON OUR PROCESS, OUR CHOICES AND THE QUALITY OF THE GRAPHIC CRAFTSMANSHIP THAT GOES INTO OUR PRINTS.

Every print we deem exciting enough to present to the public via our Etsy store or available here at our studio has gone through a number of steps.  The first of those is always discovering and falling in love with an obscure image, always an original that we can hold in our hands.  That image is speaking to us, sometime screaming “Don’t leave me here.  See what I am, what I was, what I can be, what I SHOULD be!”

There is a real sense of excitement involved, and a great many smiles and knowing grins when we make that deal and bring that ancient print, that battered photo, that scrap of ephemera that contains some scrap of genius from an unknown commercial artist home with us, knowing already how we mean to approach its restoration.

There is the heady promise of a further hunt just as real as what drags a weekend fisherman out of bed at 3AM to work a favorite brook as we start our research, looking for that great backstory, and both ready and willing to tumble down as many rabbit holes as are revealed to us to get that story.

Then there is a meticulous digital restoration that is as often as much fun as riding a vintage Moto Guzzi on a winding coastal road.  I don’t care if that sounds crazy, it really is like jumping in the saddle!  So many choices, so many chances to take to subtly or spectacularly give new life to otherwise permanently obscure images.

This dedication and the ongoing rush of joy in the accomplishment of it, and the opportunity to share the results in our studio and here on Etsy, is the fire of passion that keeps these engines roaring. We make every effort to ensure our customers are not just satisfied but thrilled, and we happily stand 100% behind our work.

Very comfortable
Color: Grey
I’m not sure if I am just transitioning from a very uncomfortable office chair, but this one is extremely comfortable. Very good dynamic lumbar support that reminds you that it’s there. Only cons would be a low back (I am 6’5”) but I’m not laying my head back anyways. Also the seat length is a touch short for me but standard size really. Great bang for buck with an open box deal. Easy to assemble. TBD on durability.

BUY this chair!!!!!
Color: Cream
After using this chair for about a month, I can confidently say that it's one of the most comfortable office chairs I've sat in for an extended period of time. Being in school and studying 8+ hours a day at my desk would normally make my back hurt in any other chair. Fortunately, after using this chair all day I have very very minimal back pain, if any at all (definitely due to previous injuries). The cushion on the back of the chair is extremely supportive and comfortable over all. Cannot say enough good things about this chair!!!! Definitely worth the price and easy to put together.

Good quality
Color: Grey
It was easy to put together. Material feels durable. Only downside is that it doesn't tilt lock and the arm rest height isn't adjustable (though it can be folded up). I'm 4'11" and the back is the perfect height for me with great neck and lumbar support. My feet kinda dangle but I use a foot rest so it's not a big deal. My boyfriend who's 5'10" says it's comfy but the back could be taller.

Perfect chair!
Color: Cream
I love this chair! Was hesitant to buy due to the price being a bit more than I wanted to spend, but I work from home and have terrible posture from sitting at my desk all day, so I needed something that would be conducive to helping me sit up properly. I put the chair together myself, it was heavy but overall pretty easy to do. The tools provided worked great and the directions were clear. Aesthetically, it’s a lovely neutral color and everyone who has seen it so far has complimented me and on how nice it is and how comfortable it looks — Indeed it’s a very expensive looking chair. The first time I sat on it I wasn’t sure if I was going to like it….maybe something about the lumbar support seeming to protrude too much? At any rate, I gave it a couple of days and I absolutely LOVE it. I can already feel my posture improving, no backaches and I’m perfectly comfortable all day long. I’ve had it for a couple weeks now and couldn’t be happier. It seems to be very well made, so I’m confident it will last a very long time and be worth the price. I HIGHLY recommend this chair!

UPDATE: DEFECTIVE… it was a Great chair... a bit short for tall people!
Color: Cream, Color: Cream
I purchased this chair four years ago and really liked it. However, when it was damaged during a move, I attempted to replace it. Unfortunately, the replacement chair had a construction issue that had been repeatedly mentioned in numerous comments spanning over a year at least. This defect prevents the chair from being completely assembled, rendering it unusable (screw holes don’t line up). Amazon has failed to address this issue by removing these defective chairs from its inventory. You won’t be aware of this problem until you’ve almost completed assembling the chair. At that point, you’ll have to disassemble it, rebox it, and return the box to UPS. This is an incredibly inconvenient process, and Amazon must take immediate action to rectify this issue before anyone considers purchasing this chair again. Old review from 2023: Based on someone else's review, it would seem that this chair is perfect for average-height people but less great for those of us who are a bit tall or (according to her) a bit short. I'm 5'9 with most of my height in my legs. I like a chair to be tall enough that my legs can be straight to the floor from my knees to my feet and still have support under my knees. This chair is too short for that, even at it's highest setting, but it can be fixed with a simple replacement of the gas lift cylinder for a mere $20 (search for gas lift cylinder on Amazon). And the extra $20 is worth it because other than that one issue, this chair is great. My first experience with this chair was at work when the firm replaced all of our desk chairs. I loved it so much that I bought it for myself when I went into private practice. The lumbar support hits in just the right spot and moves with your body as you lean in and out. I love the cream color, and the seat is padded nicely. I especially love the liftable arms. I sit at my desk for 8+ hours straight 5-6 days a week, and I never have body pain-- Granted, I am only 36, but I have definitely experienced this with other office chairs that claimed to be "ergonomic". With a simple lift cylinder replacement and a movable standing desk (which I never actually stand at), I can finally sit at my desk without my knees hitting the underside of the desk or my legs having to be extended out to have support under my knees. These two things mean that I don't slump at my desk anymore, and my neck and back thank me! :)
