Artist album sort in album view

[Tim Curtis]

Moode has never used the "___sort" tags because if they are different than the corresponding actual tag, the displayed list appears in a very odd order. For example when the sort tag is [lastname, firstname] and the actual tag is [firstname lastname] we end up with a list like below that seems oddly sorted since we are accustomed to lists sorted alphabetically by the first word or number.

Brian Carrigan
Joe Chambers
Billy Cobham
Alex Cortez

The other issue with the "___sort" tags is that an artist is not always a persons name for example:

Freshly Ground
Floating Spirits
Creedence Clearwater Revival
Broker/Dealer
Bomb the Bass

These types of artist names can't be put into [lastname, firstname] format.
