My Question or Issue

Hello,

 

I opened an issue for the Desktop app because some artists had their albums not sorted correctly: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Desktop-Windows/Albums-sorted-incorrectly-by-date/m-p/5211458#M1002...

 

This behavior started happening in Desktop with the launch of the new UI, and by now it's fixed. However, it's been happening in the mobile app for more than a year (and maybe two, I don't remember exactly):

I think that this particular albums have some incorrect metadata that causes this erroneous sorting (but, curiously, they should be sorted this way: "En Concierto (Live)" original release was in 1985 and "Mecano" was released in 1982, the visible dates are from re-releases).

 

Here are the URI's to the artist and the affected albums:

Mecano (artist): spotify:artist:5BMgsAFg8rZQc3tqs5BB8G

"En Concierto (Live)": spotify:album:75m6SLXmzP2MepOmgX5lvt

"Mecano" (album): spotify:album:1OWPlRO2vf9QFXqw4uPy8D

 

I hope to hear from you soon 😉


Thank you!
