"locating" songs in iTunes 12.8.3.1 on mac OS 10.13.6

How to "locate" multiple songs and albums in iTunes 12.8.3.1 on mac mini running OS 10.13.6. All music is on an external hard drive.

Please see screen shot attached.

I have tried: FindTracksA script that attempts to locate missing tracks that have been misplaced within your library, either as a result of a third party program reorganising the media or as a result of attempting to move the library/media to a new location. Enter the location of the media folder the files should be in and the script will try to systematically fix every broken link by predicting the path the file should be at and fuzzy matching on file and folder names, and other internet search suggestions, but none seem to work.

Please advise.

All help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Thank you for your assistance. Your answer worked. Now the only issue is: of the total number of songs corrected, there are about 250 songs that iTunes was unable to find. Is there an easy way to find the remainder of the songs that iTunes was unable to find, and have them self-correct?

Again, thanks for your help.
