Since 1.1 I’ve seen an increased number of my albums have multiple performers listed where only the main artists should be.
See attached screen shot, prior to 1.1 only Motorpsycho was listed and now something that looks messy and not clean. Should not those other performers be listed down in the white area “All tracks Performed by…”, basically those 2 areas need to be flipped.
I know for example the latest Steven Wilson album looks like this, from another post, but I don’t know the reply from Roon.
I added the album “Natural History” by Talk Talk and ended up with 3 artists listed I don’t want to see. Am I missing a setting that will just show Talk Talk as the artist?
Thanks for the report guys – I can reproduce this issue and I’ve bumped the priority of the ticket in our bug tracker.
We were already tracking this with regards to the Sufjan Stevens album, but obviously this appears to be a bit more widespread than just that one album. We’ll run this down guys, thanks.

Whatever Nevermind comes in as an Artist and in fact it is the name of an album (a tribute to Nirvana’s Nevermind album)
Doing this exercise was great as it also allowed me to locate 5-7 EP’s which were identified in my library as some other artist/album from what is actually was.
Love both of these, @anon94274355! Good list all around.
I’m hoping to talk with AllMusic soon about how they’d like us proceed here. If we can help expedite we will, but in the meantime, feel free to report them directly and I’ll follow up here once we talk with our contacts there.
