Does anyone know if there is any way to view the Album Artist field from Itunes? Is it called something different in MP3tag's extended fields? For example, in the old Musicmatch program, it shows up in the Classical Orchestra field.

Thanks for any help.

The iTunes "Album Artist" field shows up as "BAND" in MP3Tag.
