Compilation Album doesn't show as a single album

I just started storing my CD collection on Emby.  I already have a large Movie and series compilation up and running.

After successfully storing about 10 albums, I ripped an Andrew Lloyd Webber album which is a compilation of songs from many of his productions.  I can't figure out how to get this album to display as a single album containing 14 separate tracks.  Every track now shows up as a separate album.  Probably because each track has a different artist.  How can I consolidate all of these tracks back into a single album?  Do I need to edit the Artist information and make them all "Andrew Lloyd Webber" so that they will display as a single album?

Hi, the artist can be different for each track, but you'll need to ensure all tracks in the album have the same album tag value and albumartist tag value:

What I found is that I had to enter a value in the Album artist tag for each of the tracks.  I used "Various Artists" and then the problem was solved.  Thank you.
