선정단은 개별적으로 30~50장의 앨범들을 뽑았다. 집계는 각 순위별로 1점씩 차등을 주어, 만약 총 50장의 리스트인 경우엔 50위를 1점으로 시작하여 순위가 한 단계씩 올라갈 수록 1점씩 가중치를 두었다. 그 외 몇명이 보내온 무순위 리스트는 해당 앨범들에 가중치 없이 일정한 동일 점수를 부여했다. 이렇게 점수를 합산하여 전체 순위를 결정하게 된 것이다. 동률 점수인 경우엔 그 앨범을 거론한 사람이 많은 작품을 앞 순위에 매겼다. 최종 집계를 보면 역시 예상 했던 명반들이 리스트에 대부분 포함되어있다. 물론 그 와중에도 의외의 앨범들도 포함되어 있었고, 아쉽게도 탈락한 명반들도 많다. 하지만 흔히 명반이라 일컫는 음반들은 시대가 지나고 선정단이 바뀐다고 하더라도 그 평가는 결코 흐려지지 않는다. 그래서 곧 명반이지 않겠는가... 물론 선정단의 개인취향이나 선별성 문제는 당연히 있는 것이므로 이 리스트가 완벽하다고는 말 할 수 없다. 음악을 듣고 이해하는 하나의 참고 자료가 될 수 있기를 기원한다. (단, 각 앨범 설명을 해준 필자들이 곧 그 앨범을 지지하는 것은 아니라는 점을 덧붙인다)
