I am concerned that the MUSIC FOLDER view of the files matches the
directory on the disc whereas the ALBUM view must be looking at the LMS
database

That's correct.

items added and not made available.  When I do a 'rescan' (with the
option to clear library and rescan everything), I thought that the
database would be cleared and the basic storage area would be read in as
if for the first time.

That's mostly correct, too. Did you ever check your server.log and scanner.log files for any hint about possible failures?

Just to be clear, LMS only reads the tags/metadata to build it's data
base for viewing in the various menu options(except Music Folder). It
doesn't care about or read the file names or directory structure. You

Now that's wrong. LMS does indeed use the folder and file names in case tags were missing or incomplete.
