The problem with ALBUMARTIST is that there isn't an ALBUMARTISTSORT tag. If you are as pedantic as me and want all artists correctly sorted by lastname then this is a problem. Album artists sort correctly if slimserver can pick up a sort tag from another album where this artist has a regular ARTIST and ARTISTSORT tag. The Gilles Peterson compilations for instance drive me nuts. I have them tagged with ALBUMARTIST="Gilles Peterson" but since there are no tracks by Gilles Peterson he gets sorted under G. I should count the number of times I looked under P instead of G...
