I am just as OCD as you about this.  I use the albumsort tag to
accomplish this type of sort.  The trick is to NOT put the name of the
album into the albumsort tag, but instead the name of the artist, in the
way you want it sorted.  Then after the artist use the date followed by
a letter.  In your example, this is how i would set it up:

Fairport Convention (1968)
ALBUMSORT: Fairport Convention 1968

What we did on our holidays (1969)
ALBUMSORT: Fairport Convention 1969a

Unhalfbricking (1969)
ALBUMSORT: Fairport Convention 1969b

Liege & lief (1969)
ALBUMSORT: Fairport Convention 1969c

Full House (1970)
ALBUMSORT: Fairport Convention 1970

etc.

If the artist is the name of a person, just use Lastname, Firstname
followed by the date in Albumsort.

Tell LMS to sort by Album Name, not release date and this works.  No
special plug-ins are needed.  I can't take credit for this, I learned
about this many years ago, probably on this forum, when I set up my
system.
