The best of 2006 roundup - where does SS stand?

This post got us to thinking... So, it being new years and all I thought I would look around and see where the Seeger Sessions falls on everyone's top albums of 2006:

Billboard Magazine has Seeger Sessions in at 100 in the their top 200 albums of the year. They also ranked it number 2 of 10 in their critics' choice behind Dylans' Modern Times.

The Bradenton Herald: #7

"This project sounded like a dull and unnecessary vanity project. But leave it to the Boss to reinvent his favorite folk songs with a smoking 17-piece band of horns, strings and pianos that sounds plucked from the French Quarter. The results are a hootenanny worth hollering about."
The Montreal Gazette: #3 on one of their lists
"The Boss salutes Pete Seeger with these joyous, big band hootenanny versions of traditional folk songs from the Seeger canon."
France Inter puts the Seeger Sessions at #5.

Any others out there?
