Music download from music store duplicate

I'm an oldskool boy. I don't do subscriptions, so no Music, Spotify or Netflix for me. I still buy CDs, and if I can't find what I want, I'll buy from the iTunes Music Store.

Recently I upgraded to Catalina, and Music has replaced iTunes, no problem (no, I won't go googling for 'music', something I could do with 'itunes' by the way). Current version 1.0.6.10 (Mac OS 10.15.7).

Today I bought a digital album. So far so good. 17 tracks on the album, but 18 show up in my library: Track #3 is duplicated, and one bears the cloud icon. Clicking on that icon downloads the track, the cloud icon disappears, but then I have two duplicate tracks! So I remove one of them, and am back in the previous situation: one real, and one with a cloud icon!

Is this a glitch of the new Music app, or the iTunes Store?

iMac 27″, macOS 10.15
