Hi Paul,
OK. Just in Finder have a quick look in your home directory at the following
location. Let's say your home directory is "paul". Navigate to
paul/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Music
and see if it is populated with directories that have the name of groups and
artists.
As an important aside, do you have a backup of any sort in place?
Cheers,
Carlo
