I've spent about an hour trying to set up two custom web links. Both for retrieving information from allmusic.com. One for artist information and one for album information.

I started with these which are for Discogs and then went down a rabbit hole trying syntax that works with Bing and Amazon and Wikipedia.

Discogs Album
Code
https://www.discogs.com/search/?q=<Artist> <Album>

Discogs Artist
Code
https://www.discogs.com/search/?q=<Artist>

Thanks.
Download the latest MusicBee v3.5 or 3.6 patch from here.
Unzip into your MusicBee directory and overwrite existing files.
