1. Your track sorting, within your Artists view is probably set such that it doesn't sort by album. Go to your Artists view. Click on an artist with more than one album, which should open a window down below showing the albums. Are they in order by album? I'm guessing no. To fix that, go to the top of that new window down below and click on the header where it says "artist files" with a down arrow. You'll get a menu, which includes Group By. Set Group By to Album. If that doesn't fix it, maybe post a screen shot and we'll see what we can do.
2. You would probably enjoy using Tabs. Tabs are like Tabs in a web browser, where each Tab can have something different in it and you can click back and forth between the Tabs. To open a new tab go to the top area where it says the name of the view you are in. Something like Playing Now or Artists. It will have some arrows to the left and a small box to the right. Click that box and you'll get a new tab. Now you can have Artists open in one tab and Playing Now open in a second tab. You can open more tabs for more persistent views if you'd like. If you like this, I have a few more tips for you on this front.
3. Are you saying that Track #9 of that album appears as it's own Album, with just that one track? ...and the "whole album" is missing that track? If so, this is probably because the [Album Artist] field is different on this one track, making MC think it is a different album. To fix this, highlight the song and open the tagging window with Edit > Tag . Find [Album Artist]. If you can't find it, use the gear menu at the upper left of the tagging window to show all fields. Once you find [Album Artist], you might simply erase it's value. Or, go check the value of Album Artist for the other tracks on that album. The key is for them all to have the same value for Album Artist. It can be blank, or it can be something meaningful.
Oh, I'm also guessing that if you look at the value of [Artist] for that album, you're going to find that track 9 has a different [Artist] than the rest. It's probably a collaboration track between Tears For Fears and some outside artist. (Hint: I cheated and looked it up.)
Good luck,
Brian.
