This search expression shows only files that have a value in the Image File field (thus have cover art linked or embedded):

-[Image File]=[]

It can be used in view schemes, smartlists and searches.

It does not check if the albums are complete. You can use additional expressions for that.

What if you want to only show albums WITHOUT art (so that I can tag and update)?

There was another person who posted this before but it never seemed to work for me.

[Image File]=[] will return all files without coverart.

This is also achieved by using MC's already built-in (stocked) smartlist under Playlists -> Auto Smartlists (music) -> Task -- No Images
