How do I view an album's release date?

When I am browsing Apple Music, I can see a list of SOME of the Artist's albums, each with a date underneath (what I want). When I click on the 'see all' button, I see all albums but there is not date under them ... what have I done wrong?

As a corollary ... how do I sort by date with the albums, and how can I see the date to the original album even for the 'remastered/super duper' version ... it is about when the music was written, not when it was digitally processed.

Thanks.

That is the way the interface is currently organized. You may not like it, but users also can’t change it. Apple - Apple Music - Feedback

how do I sort by date with the albums

Sorting by year per artist is possible on Mac iTunes, as it allows a secondary sorting routine (menu View﹥Sort by). This takes the year from the meta data (year tag), regardless of original release, when it was written, or re-issued. For purchased digital music or Apple Music albums, you may not be able to change this meta data.
