Is there a web site similar to imdb, but for music?
...specifically, I'm looking for chart information, album sales, names of studio musicians playing on a particular record, etc.

AMG, as mentioned, is excellent. I thought I would pipe in and also mention Amazon as a good source of release dates for CDs and label information.
If you're looking for reviews, besides AMG you can try Pitchfork, Pop Matters, and the online sites for music magazines.
Note AMG usually slacks for their reviews and only puts them up a week or two later.

www.allmusic.com is probably the best and closest resource to that on IMDB.

They really need to spruce up their backend.

www.songmeanings.net ....it's pretty sweet, for lyrics and different interpritations of songs.
