Problem matching cd collection with Discog reference

#1

I am trying to match the 20 CD set “The John Harle Collection”. Discogs have the details of the release Link
https://www.discogs.com/release/27542226-John-Harle-The-John-Harle-Collection
and a copy release code of [r27542226].
When I try to match as one album it fails to find a match, and when I use the release code I don’t get a match.
What am I doing wrong? it must be me being stupid but I can’t get a match…

Okay, I’ve turned off my VPN and got a match, but the works aren’t grouped. but at least progress.
I’ll try my John adams collection next.

OKay that doesn’t match at all either with the url: John Adams – The John Adams Earbox | Releases | Discogs, or the master release id [m3126558] or this release
John Adams – The John Adams Earbox – Box Set 10 x CD, 1999 [r2607143] | Discogs
Any ideas?

Please run Create Support Files so I can see your results.

I have done that before the last run should I do it again?

Okay I saw match with MatchAlbumReport00740 - it is because you are matching to Discogs, Discogs uses sub heading to mean a number of things not just Works so it is rather difficult to fully extract things like Works. So for now we only do that with MusicBrainz which is our primary data source, unfortunately this boxset does not seem to be on MusicBrainz currently.

I have done that before the last run should I do it again?

The last report I got was MatchAlbumReport00740 soi if the John Adams attempts are later than this please rerun Create Support Files,

Thanks Paul, the Musicbrainz tags have helped, I guess the rest I with just have to manually input.
The John Harke Collection is odd, Musicbrains have the first out of 20 cds on it but that is it so more manual editing and reinstate my account so the other 19 cds are on there…
