Hold on a second!

1st three months takes us up to end of March.
HMHB CSI:A wasn't released until 28 April!

You can't have given that three months worth of playing,
unless you own a Tardis , can you?

I did have an early copy of Blue Badge Abuser, but you're right, of course. I got my dates mixed up and was thinking from the beginning of the year until today. I do own a Tardis, but it is broken at the moment and the Tardis repair man is on holiday. So what other album did I play a lot in the first three months of the year - probably this

I'll forgive you if I can borrow your tardis -obviously once it's been mended!

Scarlatti - Selected Piano Sonatas played by Pletnev
Innocence Mission - We Walked in Song
Innocence Mission - Glow
Innocence Mission - Birds of My Neighbourhood
John Taylor Trio - Whirlpool

... top of my head, the below - will think about my top 5 tonight.

Peter Hammill - The Peel Sessions
Jean Michel Jarre - Oxygene live in Amsterdam 2008
