*** INTERNET ALBUMS TOP 100 * ISSUE 002 ***
Floris
SEND NEW VOTES NOW
and be ready to receive the third edition of the chart on January 15. Do
not waste your votes on albums that were released prior to 1995 and aren't
already on the list. It is unlikely that an old album will enter the
charts! Only recently released albums will be included in the Runners Up
list. (Remember that this chart is not an all-time favourites list.)
LOBBYING
Extensive lobbying for Prince and the Pet Shop Boys has not only pushed
The Gold Experience and Alternative up the Charts, but has also increased
the number of voters. This should be an important message for fans of all
other artists: send this list to your friends and get them to vote too!
WWW LINKS
From this Monday on, the WWW version of the charts will have links from
almost all the albums to much more information about the artists. Check
out http://www.xs4all.nl/~jojo and travel to newsgroups, mailings lists,
lyrics, web pages and much more info about the most popular artists on
this planet. (With credits to The Ultimate Band List for all the links.)
The Internet Charts are global popularity lists that *you* make. Let your
opinion be seen around the world. Make your favourite albums climb to the
top! Just ask us for the 'Big Document' if you don't know how to vote.
This file only includes the latest Albums Chart, but we have much more.
Go to http://www.xs4all.nl/~jojo if you want to see other charts and info.
