Same album has missing artwork

I have had a ongoing issue with album artwork on iTunes on the Mac. The best way to explain is with an example. Today I ripped my Taio Cruz The Rockstarr Collection CD. iTunes does this fine and gets all the album details. When I then select all the tracks and choose Get Album Art Work the result is that tracks which have Taio Cruz listed as the Artist get the album artwork attached. Some track that say Taio Cruz Feat. Tinchy Stryder for example don't have the album artwork. How do I fix this?

MacBookPro, Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I've have a better solution!


1. Find the album you're looking for on the iTunes Store in iTunes.

2. Right click the artwork and select copy link.

3. Paste the link in Safari, I'm using Plaid – Scintilli as an example here:


http://itunes.apple.com/se/album/scintilli/id463989378


4. Right click the artwork on the webside and select "Copy Image Address", you will get a link similar to this:


http://a3.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/086/Music/01/01/86/mzi.xxxswskr.170x170-75.jpg


This is the small album art, to get the large version replace 170x170 with 600x600 like this:


http://a3.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/086/Music/01/01/86/mzi.xxxswskr.600x600-75.jpg


Voila!


I've tried it for every album that iTunes couldn't find with "Get Album Artwork" and it worked flawlessly.


Please mark this as a correct answer, thanks!
