Yes, it's definitely getting worse with Music.app from release to release. I had success with deleting the artwork database and letting it rebuild itself, but I don't know if I just got lucky.

OK, if you've read the disclaimer above you could try on Terminal.app with Music.app closed

```plaintext
rm ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.AMPArtworkAgent/Data/Documents/artworkd.*
rm ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.AMPArtworkAgent/Data/Documents/artwork/*

```

Now close `AMPArtworkAgent` via Activity Monitor.app and restart Music.app.

It should then slowly rebuild the album covers.
