  "I love the Gig-Ready series -- I've got the two Christmas collections and plan on purchasing some others soon. They are indeed "gig ready" -- for a group of good musicians they can be performed wonderfully after just a read-through, and if necessary they could be sight-read on the gig (if you're willing to risk sight-reading a gig!)"
