TAS 1997 - The Absolute Sound Challenging the most demanding ears! TAS has compiled a CD of great artists together from different labels, including North Star, Linn, Venus, Rounder, Sheffield Lab and Dynamic to name a few, for their TAS Recordings of 1997!

Maura O'Connell has a marvelous team including Bela Fleck and Nanci Griffith here. "If You Love Me" arouses the warm emotion in everybody's heart.

Archie Shepp Quartet's "Blue Ballads" has the best acoustic effect and the best digital signal transferring technology (24-bit).

Without classical music, this CD would not be complete for testing your hi-fi system. Paganini's La Campanella is the final movement of his second violin concerto. The final track, William Jackson's "Braveheart Theme" is the origin of the famous theme of the Mel Gibson movie. Jackson's genius in performing and arranging could be found everywhere.

When referring to jazz, no one will overlook Carol Kidd. Neil Diamond's "You Don't Bring Me Flowers" is performed beautifully by Carol. Her sweet voice makes everything unforgettable.
