This is a point, I wanted to make as my own experience was one odd
track in some other album that led to my discovery of the error in
another album.

I only suggest the current problem album for the user because if
something all of a sudden has gone wrong, then it is likely that
something changed in the newest set of tags.  However, if the user is
editing any other tags or even ripping albums that could be related
(via a common SORT tag) then all bets can be off.

The suggestion by JJZolx can be very important, too.  If the answer is
that his compilation is showing a "Yes" then it is most likely due to
the compilation tags or something related rather than a sort tag.  If
the answer is "No" then he definitely needs to look for other tags that
can sneak in, including having ID3v1 tags.
