The vast majority of my library is albums by singe artists. However I have a handful of 'various artists' compilations etc. I know if I use the 'Album Artist' tag I can ensure I can see every artist correctly in my MJ library. But I cant find a way to do this easily for the 'standard' albums where artist = album artist within MJs file properties dialog. Is there a way to fill in the Album Artist tag en masse for these albums?
Stepping back a bit, I gather that there are issues with ID3v1/ID3v2 and album artist is a v2 tag. Should I even be using the v2 tags? Its confusing. If the King is listening, I know he is Mr Tagging, so Id be interested in his advice.
I know that this sort of thing has been covered before, but to be honest I cant make any sense of the archive posts I looked at. Guess Im moving on from 'just rip it and play it' to 'rip it, play it and make sure its organised properly'

PS Apparently 'The King' is number 1 in the UK charts at the moment - now overtaken the Beatles for most number 1s ever. Not bad for someone who died 25 years ago, but a bit sad that it took a Nike advert to get him there...
