Is there a way to show music sorted by SONG artist on the Retina iPad?
I've changed the settings to not group by album artist. I've also toggled the 'sort by artist' option, but that doesn't seem to accomplish anything.
Now the songs - when viewed through the 'artist' tab show up like this:
album art
album artist
1 song, 1 album
Since I have a lot of compilation albums, this does't make the slightest bit of sense. I have albums with 50 songs, all by different artists. The way it sorts them now, I have 50 identical items showing up, and I have to click each one to see the song title and artist info.
I have no way to just see a list with all songs by a certain artist, just those who happen to be on an album where that artist is also the album artist, which isn't very often.
What I would like to show is this:
(album or song art - or even no art at all)
song artist
song title
or alternatively:
A list of song artists.
When one artist is selected, a list with all their songs
(this is how it's always been on my ipod before)
Many thanks!
