Re: Ripping Level Question (help?)
If Wikipedia is correct, Corea is the only one of the four who played on all four tracks. Vitous and DeJohnette played bass and drums, respectively, on tracks 1 and 2, and Konitz played sax on tracks 3 and 4. For that reason, I would make "Chick Corea" the album artist. For the Artist tags, I would list Corea, Vitous, and DeJohnette for the first two tracks, and Corea and Konitz for the other two. The album would therefore be listed with my other "Chick Corea" albums, while the actual lineup for each track would be displayed on-screen during playback.
Yes, that's true. Corea is consistently appearing Artist.
I just took a listen and:
Track 1 = Corea, Vitous, DeJhonette,
Track 2 = Corea, Vitous, DeJhonette,
Track 3 = Corea, Konitz,
Track 4 = Corea, Konitz.
I ordered "Vol. 2" off eBay this morning and from what I can gather, Corea plays on all 3 tracks here also.
The reason I put Jack DeJohnette as Album Artist was because he was the 'organiser'.

Re: Ripping Level Question (help?)
Hi,
Because, on my Sony Walkman (which has since been returned to Amazon), the ';' (semicolon) separator did not work as it should, I was advised to use the '/' instead. For example, for a 'Producers' tag I might type: Teo Macero / Miles Davis'; or for a 'Label' tag: Legacy / Columbia. In other words for all these types of tags I have used this legend.
For Artist Sort and Album Sort, I have used the ',' (comma). So: 'Davis, Miles' or 'Coltrane, John'.
Do you think this is OK, please? My searches in Foobar are successful and without issue.
Cheers,

Re: Ripping Level Question (help?)
Gary, So you could have a situation where you tag your albums a certain way, but you have to live with the fact that not all of your players will recognise/handle the texts in an identical manner? Cheers.Comment

Re: Ripping Level Question (help?)
I am kind of wondering if I should have used your method or not. So using a semicolon instead of a hyphen.
But, as I say, Foobar is handling it OK, and the Sony Walkman has been sent back to Amazon for a refund ...Comment

Cheers Gary, So you use a comma (,) for Artist Sort and Album Sort? PaulComment

Re: Ripping Level Question (help?)
Fair enough if you don't use them. Pointless having something you don't need! But you would use - if you wanted to tag MULTIPLE Producers or Labels etc - semi colons ( to separate their names? eg.:
(PRODUCER) Reggie Lucas; Pete Cosey
(LABEL) Verve; Polydor
Whereas I have used:
Reggie Lucas / Pete Cosey
Verve / Polydor
Thanks,
