Christmas Time Is Here Whether it's joy, spiritual devotion or the proverbial good cheer, the holiday vibe inspires some of the warmest, most sacred--and yes, cornballest--melodies ever written. And what better instrument to praise these profound melodies than the guitar? The challenge was to invite special kinds of guests to this particular Yuletide extravaganza: players who could coax, caress or slam out a unique voice from the instrument, and unite the spirit of Christmas with the beautiful tones of silver strings. And that's what we did. May this music become part of enchanting holiday memories you can cherish forever. Warm Regards, Steve Vai
