Great to see so much participation in this one, and even better to see two outstanding albums duke it out. Honestly surprised to see Bowie not pull this one out - to be fair, when looking at who voted for what, there's a lot of overlap. But it is Neil Young, and probably his best-known album.
1992 is a monster year in the midst of a run of some of the most important years in modern music. There is no Nirvana/Metallica/Pearl Jam release to automatically plug into a victory, so I'm very curious to see which of these outstanding works gets the most love.
