The compiling artist is credited on the cover, I would expect these kind of albums to appear on the artist page (in the appropriate section, not along their regular albums). _I_ fail to see why it would be better to keep them linked to 'various artists' as an artist, where they will be harder to find for those looking for them. > An example of this is "Late Night Tales" series - see, > for example, > <http://musicbrainz.org/release/f7d1fb55-b951-4188-a846-600e8eed730c.html> > or > <http://musicbrainz.org/release/867d6bb8-626a-4d3e-af25-09382f8d257c.html>.
