I backed-up the albums separately for storage and playback via my HDD's...
I think that's what I'll do. As of now, MusicBrainz doesn't have the tagging info for the release as a whole.
Thanks!
Just personal opinion here (and it might sound funny or hypocritical given my association with D-V) but I always always tag albums released from a two-fer (like this one) or multi-album set separately. My feeling is that the length and the sequencing of the original album was carefully considered as part of the original creative process, and I don't want that changed by the arbitrary decision of someone decades later. I also feel like, outside of that, and maybe just conditioned by decades of listening habits that (double albums aside) 40 minutes, give or take, is the three bears "just right" size for a musical morsel.
Similarly, when an album has more than a couple of bonus tracks, I'll tag those separately too, like Album Title (96/24 5.1 Surround) for the main album and Album Title (96/24 5.1 Surround Bonus Tracks) for the extra tracks. Unless I'm specifically looking to hear them, I find that the listening experience of listening to 10 or 12 perfect, classic, well known songs, followed by demos, outtakes, rough mixes and so on of varying (and often declining) quality is a bit like that Mitch Hedberg joke about pancakes - "You're all happy at first, but then by the end, you're sick of 'em.”

Just got my SDE in yesterday, the 'Boys' are in the queue for processing (no extra syrup required, please!)
I do something similar; so for this one I'll probably do:
THIN LIZZY 1976 - JAILBREAK, SDE BD (Atmos or 5.1)
THIN LIZZY 1976 -JOHNNY THE FOX, SDE BD (Atmos or 5.1)
SDE now in discogs for export also:
https://www.discogs.com/release/31834601-Thin-Lizzy-1976-Jailbreak-Johnny-The-Fox
and here's my instructions to import discogs data into FooBar2000
https://www.quadraphonicquad.com/fo...p-issues-fixes-usage.28741/page-2#post-654179
in the Foobar2000 comments sections I usually throw in something like:
Mercury / Universal Music Recordings – 6576562 / SDE Surround Series #27, Blu-ray Dolby Atmos |
I decided to split the difference, so to speak. I put the Atmos and 5.1 mixes in four separate folders with album and mix names, but I tagged them with the "1976" blu-ray info. I think I've taken a similar approach with other releases, such as the Jethro Tull ones that contain multiple mixes and/or bonus material. I usually access music by folder anymay, even though my player uses Kodi, which I think can search by metadata.
This is how I've split up my back-ups...
