Rolling Stone magazine have just published their Rock & Roll Gift Guide featuring the best audio tech, gadgets, box sets and books for the ultimate music fan. One of the Box Sets featured is Sting 25 which they describe as follows: "Over a comprehensive three-CD set presented in a thick picture book filled with vanity shots and handwritten lyrics, this retrospective of Sting's solo career covers his post-Police exploration into jazz ("Englishman in New York"), remixed club-thumpers ("Send Your Love") and his endless supply of love songs for wife Trudie. The bonus live DVD of a 2005 Irving Plaza concert contains the only hint of Police-era youth ("Message in a Bottle," "Roxanne"), but his voice and songwriting have never lost their luster."
