I’ve found that sometimes happens when the artists are different....so Jane sings 10 songs, but Jane and Mary sing 2, and iTunes pulls out the Jane and Mary ones. YOu can go in and edit the information for the tracks to make them the same as the rest to get iTunes to put them all together.


I’ve also changed albums to ‘various artists’, which does eliminate your ability to make a playlist by artist but groups the songs all together by the album.
