Aww man, I voted last year but have not gotten a ballot yet.
I'm gonna try not to whine this year about polls not seeking out writers who review non-rock music. I will also try not to whine about writers who write about such genres who don't bother to try to get included in general interest music polls.

Besides, as everyone's noting on Facebook, not listing the singles in order on your ballot (I don't vote for albums, so don't know if it's the same there), am I reading it correctly that they don't have the mixed compilation of voter comments anymore?

The order glitch wasn't intentional, and is already being fixed.
I will also apologize for the "we" in my Tabulation Notes making it seem like the Voice made up Winey's term "GAPDY". I wasn't thinking of myself as part of the Voice's "we" as I was writing, but of course that's how it reads. I'm trying to get them to edit this in the online version, at least.

The previous sentence contains "radio" and "the pop chart." I don't think "no one" there means only critics.
If the statement is referring strictly to critics, it's still off. The album was reviewed by several outlets, including Pitchfork and (cough) AllMusic.

This Neil Young conversation feels like it's taking place in an alternate dimension. Ragged Glory is pretty much the last Neil Young album people unanimously agree on. (Maybe Harvest Moon.) The tour was a huge success, it earned him an entirely new audience/reputation when he brought out Sonic Youth as his opening act... it was a whole Thing. Did he diminish its impact by releasing 75 albums in the years since? Maybe, but every time he puts out a Crazy Horse record it gets compared to Ragged Glory, so how anyone could see it as anything but a major, major part of his discography is beyond me.

I like all of those albums - regardless of whether they deserved the top spot, they're all touched with greatness and I'd say most of them are great. Even "Tennessee" is unimpeachable IMHO, a towering single on Arrest Development's fine debut, even though parts of the album gets too on the nose for my taste.
FWIW, I understand certain albums aren't heard about often except by those who were there at the time, but I've never bought into that as a failing of the work itself. It may be a reflection of evolving trends in the culture, and I get how that's a big part of the discourse surrounding pop music, but a great album is still a great album no matter how overlooked it may have become.
