David,
       You might want to take a look at a piece in the 10 Journal of Legal 
Studies Education 1-45 (1992) that Dale Fox and I did in which we 
correlated salary with scholarly productivity .  Unfortunately, we did not 
get into names of publications relying instead on indexed articles.
       Lynn Ward did a study of business law professors' publications quite 
a few years ago that was presented to the ALSB annual meeting.  I don't 
know if it was ever published in the Proceedings, but as I recall, it did 
have journal names and citations.
      There is also the "Maru list" (I think it was in the Am Bar Foundat. 
J.).  It is a rather dated article from the 1970's (if memory serves) that 
ranks many, if not all, law reviews by name and even the ABLJ (our 
journal).  Unfortunately, it is quite out of date given the development of 
legal publication since that time.
        For an article that gives productivity RATES of law profs (not 
b.law profs) as well as salary correlates, check out Paul Bowen's and my 
article in 19 N. Ill. Univ. Law Rev. 671, 681 (1999) which shows rates of 
law prof publications in "out of the box" law reviews by law profs at 3 top 
quartile state law school profs over a 16 year period.  We do NOT name or 
rank journals, however, but scholarly productivity is noted in quite 
refined measures.  The correlation between scholarship and SALARY is very 
disheartening (scholarship explains only 4% of the variance and this only 
occurs when scholarship is combined with the overwhelming 
factor--seniority--which accounts for 76% of the variance).
        There are quite a few lists floating around ranking journals using 
various metrics.
