Actually, that is where SC is buggy. Two issues if COMPILATION=0 is not
set:

- in artist view, album still goes under Various Artists, only listed
by ALBUMARTIST. In album view, sort by Artist, album, it's sorted where
V.. artists are. 

- guest artists from such album don't see themselves on albums where
they are main performers. I have already mention an example where Diana
Krall performing on Ray Charles' album (as ARTIST) doesn't link to Diana
Krall as sole artist on her album.

The sound stage will open up, bass will tighten and the imaging will
improve. DVD performance will also increase substantially.
