Hi,

https://open.spotify.com/album/5Y8JsWxdAWgHsjPUdIH6FN

Album can still be seen in my music. When I press, play, nothing is played

Thanks

Hey @msancho! Welcome to the Community!

The artist's record label may have taken the record down, or there may have been something wrong with the record. What I suggest for you to do is find another copy online and add it to your local files. Read more on that here: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-Answers/Desktop-Add-local-files-to-Spotify/ta-p/1308221

Nerdsquirrel, thanks for you answer,
this is dissapointing,

if I have to look for the records by myself, I think will give up being a Spotify subscriber

I had the same problem, @msancho.

My testable guess--

* The Agents owning the Copyright have suspended the license to Spotify to try to Force me and you to go out and buy the CD.

In times past, I have sometimes gone out and bought the CD from Amazon or eBay or from a "Scalper asking for a lot of money" when the Agents pulled this advertising stunt on me.

This time, instead of buying the CD for precious money, I added the following three similar Spotify albums to myMusic.

* Same recording artists-- different composers

* Similar music-- different recording artists
http://open.spotify.com/album/6EspyYpUEgYMSqD1n3NNGF
http://open.spotify.com/album/6OeIqQSaiU8krjK3tWbD7W

Cheers--  And I am glad to hear that you also liked that "lost" La Ritirata album-- Sometimes the Agents relent and renew the license to Spotify-- So I will check after ChristmasInTheJungle to see if that "lost" La Ritirata album can be played on Spotify again.

(I laugh.)
