<p dir="auto">I would like to order my playlist which includes a few hundred LPs (CDs) as follows:</p>
<ol>
<li>all the albums of one artist:</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>albums according to creation year , tracks according to track number</li>
</ul>
<ol start="2">
<li>artists in alphabetical order</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>I actually do not really care about the order of the artists, but it's easier to find a particular one if I don't want to listen to another one at the current time</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">That's it, but it seems quite difficult. In Clementine, I had it to some extent, I believe. I noted down to sort the different columns in the following order:</p>
<ol>
<li>number (of track)</li>
<li>artist / interpreter</li>
<li>year</li>
<li>album name</li>
</ol>
<p dir="auto">Doing this, it apparently got sorted in the order I wanted it to be sorted (at least with Clementine), but it seems it doesn't work now as expected. is there an established and tested way for sorting a long playlist? I need this sorting because there are a number of concept albums among them, and it would sound awkward if the tracks of these albums are shuffled around.</p>
