In 1996, the Canadian music magazine Chart conducted a reader poll to determine the best Canadian albums of all time. Melville placed 16th in that poll. When the magazine conducted a followup poll in 2000, Melville placed fifth, behind only Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Sloan and Rheostatics' 1992 album Whale Music. In the magazine's third poll in 2005, Melville placed 44th, but was one of only 25 albums to have placed in the Top 50 in all three polls.
