Let's try the Pazz & Jop thing: you have 50 points to divide between a maximum of 5 albums (i.e. you can do ten points per album, all on one, etc.). Am I overlooking anything with this voting method? Math and stats are NOT my strong suit.
Send you votes to:
ilmjazz@gmail.com
You have one week to vote. I'll be out of town most of this week, and then I'll compile the results next week.
