Sting box set 'a good gift'
People thinking about buying Sting tickets for their loved ones this Christmas may also be tempted to purchase a box set by the artist after one magazine said it would make a good present.
Rolling Stone included the product in its Rock & Roll Gift Guide recently, praising the musician for continuing to release high-quality records over his long career.
Sting, 25 Years: The Definitive Box Set Collection can be bought from the singer's website for $124.95 (£79.97).
The product includes three CDs, one DVD and a hardcover book, across which fans will find 45 remastered tracks, live footage from the star's 2005 Broken Music tour, handwritten lyrics, photographs and nine remixes.
Rolling Stone said: "The bonus live DVD of a 2005 Irving Plaza concert contains the only hint of Police-era youth ... but his voice and songwriting have never lost their lustre."
The Sting 2012 tour of the UK will begin in Gateshead on February 5th next year and includes dates in Manchester, Glasgow and London in March.
