You should change the search string to:  
**[SearchBy]=$repl(%artist% %album%,&, )**

Because everything after a **&** symbol is ignored in api search

and:

There are releases without a proper album cover. Instead, the logo of the label is presented.  
These releases have **ref="label"** instead of **ref="release"** at the image url. This leads to a failor of the script. The script jumps to the first recommendation link at the bottom of the page (Users Also Bought) which has **ref="release"** at the image, writes all data of this image and gets an error when it searches for the track (findline "\<track")

examples for releases without proper cover image:

I think the easiest solution for the script is to replace  
**findline "width="60" height="60" ref="release""**  
with  
**findline "width="60" height="60" ref=""**
