Welcome

One of the great things about the World Wide Web is that even amateurs can have a web page. Hey! That's me. My name is Steve Albin. I live in Montclair, NJ. Here's some stuff that I'm interested in.

Brian 4

Brian 4 is a relational data base application that I wrote to compile discographies. Finally, I even have documentation for the program and it is downloadable from the web. Find out more about how you too can become obsessed with sessions, songs and sidemen!

Beyond Category 2

Beyond Category is a relational data base application that I wrote to catalog album collections. Finally, I even have documentation for the program and it is downloadable from the web. Find out more about Beyond Category.

My Record Collection

Here's a self-indulgent entry. These are all the records and cds I have in my collection that I've entered in my Beyond Category database. Got a question about one of these albums? Ask Me. I will be glad to send you a detailed listing of the entry as it appears on my database
