This was ripped from a CD that I had back in probably 2001
The problem is that there are no meta tags in the file
Some other songs I have come back with much worse results..
they point to artists and songs completely unrelated to the original
Think of it this way: imagine a song like "More Than a Feeling". How many releases do you think that has been featured on? Well I'll show you: https://musicbrainz.org/recording/8ac7f9...6adb8aada1
Given that, how would the software know which album to tag (remember "album" means "release")?
If you have all the tracks from the album, that makes it easier, because the software can just take the intersection of all releases suggested.
I suppose you could argue for better heuristics to go from the artist name, to official releases, to the original release, but that's more code...
