Making A List, Querying It Twice, Gonna Find Out Who’s Been Naughty Or Nice: List Search is Live!

December 24, 2012 by A.S. Van Dorston

Barby, Me, Professor Beefheart, Mr. BulbousWhen I switched my site to WordPress in July, I also started converting my music lists to database. I spent nearly three months converting and adding genre tags to my master list, which now consists of nearly 12,000 albums! I learned a little SQL and PHP to call up some lists, which are linked on the right, like Best Albums Since 1965 and Heavy Rock. But what good is a database without being able to do your own searches and queries? The multiple drop-down queries got a little complicated for me, so my old college friend Patrik Dousa kindly helped out and got it working! I owe him big time! Eventually we will work out some minor kinks, and add multiple genre searches, countries and record labels. Enjoy! List Search

Also, the Fast ‘n’ Bulbous Best Of 2012 Mix is done! 100 songs, 1.2 GB, 9 hours, 31 minutes, 56 seconds. You can find it in the usual, obvious place at Fester’s Lucky 13: 2012 Year-End Summary. Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Kwanza, Solstice, Krampusnacht, and holidaze!
