Different criteria. The list you quote was compiled from votes by other singers. 
Mojo then gave the opportunity to its readers to vote and here is the list that 
they came up with.

 1. John L ennon
 2. Elvis Presley
 3. Aretha Franklin
 4. Frank Sinatra
 5. Bob Dylan
 6. Roy Orbison
 7. Paul McCartney
 8. Otis Redding 
 9. Robert Plant
10. Ray Charles

Others that may be of interest to the list

39. Neil Young
41. Buddy Holly
45. Johnny Cash
47. Willie Nelson
55. Patsy Cline
70. Charlie Rich
72. Gram Parsons
91. Hank Williams

I just pulled out my Mojo from 10/98 and Lennon is #4. I assume that this is the issue 
they're talking about; why would they do the same thing twice w/in 6 months?

The top 10 are as follows:
10. Otis Redding
9. Sam Cooke
8. Stevie Wonder
7. Elvis
6. Marvin Gaye
5. Billie Holiday
4. John Lennon
3. Ray Charles
2. Frank
1. Aretha

If Mojo has repeated themselves then consider my shoe in my mouth.

This list also, in no way relects my own top ten. I'm just reporting the facts.

Actually, don't we all know Elvis is the man?  As much as I love 
Lennon, it's not him alone, but he and McCartney together that made 
it happen. 

Yep... 

Besides, Aretha could kick all their punk asses at once.

Indeed!  R-E-S-P-E-C-T baby!
