"Recent" is a view that's defined for JRemote. You can look at all of these in: Tools > Options > Media Network > Advanced > configure views for jremote ...
As far as I can tell, this is a simple Albums list sorted by Date Imported. I haven't experienced the issue you're describing, so I'm not sure *exactly* how to solve it. But I think making an expression of something like [Album] - [Album Artist (auto)] might fix the issue. You could try it and test it out to see.
Or maybe someone else is more familiar with this particular problem and has a more concrete suggestion.
Good luck.
Brian.
