Not sure what to do about this

1

I was importing a Ryan Adams & the Cardinals album and I noticed that beets was correcting my artist tags to “Ryan Adams & Ryan Adams & the Cardinals”. I came here and noticed that it appears the same way here.

Does anyone know what should be done to fix this?

Thanks for pointing this out. I’ve entered an edit in the database that will fix this.

See this feature request for more background:

Also, beets has their own forum which would be much better suited for asking questions related to beets:
