Crooner Sacha Distel dead at 71

The epitome of the suave, sophisticated Frenchman, Distel enjoyed a career stretching over almost half a century during which he sang, danced and played jazz guitar with some of the biggest names in showbusiness.
Among the stars he worked with were Liza Minelli, Dizzy Gillespie, Quincy Jones and Dionne Warwick.
In Britain, his television shows were such a hit he performed for Queen Elizabeth on three occasions.
