Ok...
Sorry about the lateness of the poll... A bit too much homework for my own
good... Anyway, I got 111 votes for the poll. I've arranged it as a top 100
of all time, plus 11 more "almost, but not quite" slots (arranged by point
total). At the end of this posting is the listing of the records with
only a single number one vote.

I will conduct a top band/artist of all time poll after I get back from
winter break...

If you would like a complete record of the point distribution, e-mail me
and I'll send it to you... for those who sent requests will receive this
poll and the point distribution.
