Tristan's Tunes of 2008 - The Final Line up

Well then, here it is my "Top Tunes of 2008" now I wouldn't be as bold or brave to rank the songs in any kind of preferential order or say which ones are better than others and determine which album is the best one released this year. However I just like to make a "mix CD" with all the tracks that mean something to me and happened to have been released this year and bought by me! So this means that for each of the tracks in the line up I've gone out and bought the proper CD, as you should all do too!


Anyway, enough with the jibbering , if you want to get your hands on a copy of my fave tracks of 2008 then all you need to do is download it from here:
