Must Haves

• display links to all of the artists returned by the API
• click on an artist to show a header with the artist's name and their albums
• clicking on an album name will show a detail page for that album
• album detail page should show a list of comments with the most recent at the top
• home page lists all of the years for which we have albums, with a count of albums per year
• home page lists 5 most popular artists (by sum of albums sold)

Nice to Haves (any one of these, no particular order)

• clicking on a year on the home page shows albums that were released that year organized by artist
• home page lists all known artist locations
• clicking on a location will show artists at that location organized by last name A-Z
• the show page for an artist displays artists that are nearby (same location)
• provide a form that will save a comment on an album
• validate that the form is filled in before allowing submission
• support deleting comments
