All five volumes are available as a set at a reduced price.

In the artist’s words

Anyone lucky enough to have made music with John Sangster will likely refer to him as a creative genius. He certainly was that in my view and much more. His compositions, his humour and general attitude towards life were inspirational. This collection demonstrates all these qualities to be sure. It is a collector's item and one which will give great listening pleasure for a very long time.
