 The 'Roll' has a CD entitled 'Christmas by an Open Fire'. It's not 
flashy. Just sweet tone on all the old classical Christmas favorites. A 
real STUDY in how to control the notes (especially the bends and 
slurs). Most players can hold bends and slurs 'most' of the time. 
'Jell' controls them ALL of the time. Like I said, it won't get your 
blood pressure up, it's all about the control.
