My Question or Issue

Could you show an example of query for a track in a range of years? From the examples and the query form https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/search I don't understand how to construct a query string

a%20year:1960-1970 returns the 2023 track (attached the files to the post) and constructs curl command

curl --request GET \ --url 'https://api.spotify.com/v1/search?q=*a*%2520year%3A1960-1970&type=track&market=EN&limit=1&offset=1'

a year:1960-1970 returns empty response for small offset (attached the files to the post) and constructs curl command

curl --request GET \ --url 'https://api.spotify.com/v1/search?q=a+year%3A1960-1970&type=track&market=EN&limit=1&offset=1'

*a*%20year:1960-1970 with wildcard also return random year and constructs curl command

curl --request GET \ --url 'https://api.spotify.com/v1/search?q=*a*%2520year%3A1960-1970&type=track&market=EN&limit=1&offset=1'

Could you explain the specifics of performing a search
