    I'm having the exact same issue but not with the beatles obviously, for me it's alt-j. I have a single "alt-J" artist directory with a single "alt-J/artist.nfo" file, and every alt-J album in Jellyfin is indicated as being by "alt-J / alt-J". Both separately are clickable and both list to the right albums they just have different metadata. Basically each _album_ gets tagged by Jellyfin as having two album artists, I can see it in the "album.nfo":

    Code:
      <albumartist>alt-J</albumartist>
      <albumartist>alt‐J</albumartist>

    But of course there's only one alt-J in my directories, leading to some phantom alt-J on top of the normal one originating from my artist.nfo file.

    Looking further, I found that for this specific artist it seems whoever tagged these albums (Lidarr??) went way overboard and added the "Album artist" credit using every possible tag under the sun:

    Code:
    ALBUM ARTIST=alt‐J
    ALBUM_ARTIST=alt‐J
    ALBUMARTIST=alt‐J
    ALBUMARTIST_CREDIT=alt‐J
    ALBUMARTISTSORT=alt‐J

    Is it possible Jellyfin is mistaking two of these entries as being two separate <albumartist> tags? @adusblue can you maybe check if your Beatles albums are similarly tagged?
