Why doesn't Roon match obvious identification matches?

Core Machine (Operating system/System info/Roon build number)
In this case:
Intel NUC7i3BNK with 8Gb RAM and 250Gb WD Blue m.2. Media on WD Elements 4Tb portable drive

Network Details (Including networking gear model/manufacturer and if on WiFi/Ethernet)
Core hard wired to router (Asus Ax58) via HP Procurve unmanaged gigabit switch.

Audio Devices (Specify what device you’re using and its connection type - USB/HDMI/etc.)
not relevant

Description Of Issue
I just installed a new Core using ROCK on the above mentioned NUC.
I decided to rebuild my library from scratch, in an effort to clean up my media and Roon database.

And, out of the 7.200 albums i found around 500 non-identified albums when identifiction was done. I do have a certain amount of albums which are a challenge to identify, of course.
But, now when i am going through these unidentified albums there are MANY that should be identified but won’t?

Let me show an example:
David Gilmour - Live in Gdansk,

When viewing the album, selecting “unidentified”,

Alright, these are what Roon found reasonably similar,


I select the top suggestion…


Why, oh why, do you maketh me click in absurdum, when the Album should be automagically identified? There is nothing visibly wrong with this selection?
And yes, i have selected the album before and tried Re-identify, no match…

@Mikael_Ollars — Can you send over this album? We’d like to test this out internally. Thanks!

What changed?

Oh, apologies, that was confusing! I fulfilled @Dylan’s request!
