ALBUM=Paper Money ARTIST=Sammy Hagar ARTIST=Montrose BAND=Montrose If you have the setting "List album by Band" ticked, then I think the artist will be reported just as "Montrose". If there are no guest artists, there would be no need for an Album Artist to bring the songs together as one album that is not a compilation. In fact you could also drop ARTIST=Montrose, if you include Band as a role that can appear in the Browse Artists list. You'd still be able to find the album under either Sammy Hager (the artist), or Montrose (the band), but either way, when it is playing it would appear as "Paper Money by Montrose" Any Album Artist tag also applied to this would override, so for example, you could have a different guest artist on each song alongside Sammy Hagar, some songs could be considered as being by a band called Montrose, whilst others being "The All-star Montrose band", and bring the whole lot together under one album by album artist "Montrose".
