a number of albums in the top 10 had decent year-end acclaim- but, Blackout? Between this and the #150 or so ranking on another year-end list, this could work its way to the Bubbling Under category.

this is a good list





...nnnaaaaat

No, in the newspaper, these are given as their top 10 songs of the decade, in that order. I notice that on the website, they appear as 'voteable', including the same comments from the newspaper, but I assume this is only an added poll. I don't still have a copy of the paper, but I suppose even so, they could be added as an unranked top 10.

Thanks for the clarification. If the ordered list appears online, please post a link to it.

I just saw that the albums are divided into three categories; pop (top 100), jazz (top 10) and world (top 10). I think the jazz and world lists are just as relevant for our spreadsheet.
