2006 Pazz & Jop album clusters
508e · 7 February 07
Here are some clusters from the album-poll data of the 2006 Village Voice Pazz & Jop critics poll. The parenthetical numbers score each album on the right according to its support by people who voted for the album on the left.
Compare and contrast the Jackin' Pop version. (While I work on actually consolidating the two polls...)
