What is the greatest music album of all time? If you ask a hundred different people to name the best album of all time, the chances are that you will not get a unanimous answer!

Site news and announcements

January 2010 site update
From albummaster on Thursday 7 January 2010
Just a small update to bring in the new year: The search functionality is now improved to help you better locate a specific band, album, or track. You can now search for all words in a search phrase, any word, or search for an exact match. We’ve fixed an issue with the ‘go to page’ button on the customize chart page. (Thanks to RFNAPLES for reporting). Member profiles have been expanded slightly with some *optional* fields added for age, gender and country (the new fields are optional because some members may be worried about privacy). The purpose behind this update is to get to know people a little better and to understand more where some people are coming from with their chart selections and comments. We’ll probably add some additional fields in a future update to capture favourite movies etc. This idea for this update came from the forums. Happy new year everybody! More soon.... albummaster
