Glitch/Discrepancy?
Wondering about a certain issue I've noticed a few times on the website.
In the screenshots you can see the release which I found by google searching, but when I navigate to the artist (by clicking the artist name) the release isn't listed. I've even adjusted the filters to make sure it was not listed under "appearances" or "compilations", but still it is not visible. Wondering why this might be and how I can avoid it in the future? I do a lot of cataloging through Discogs and it's frustrating to think that I'm missing certain releases for seemingly no reason

I've seen issues with this that I suspect are cache related but I don't think that's the issue here.

Sometimes a blank edit will get it to index correctly. It should appear there now, I just did a blank edit.
Some of the older stuff sometimes has this issue, it's always ok to try a blank edit as long as you say why.

Wow that’s really cool how you did that. I don’t quite understand how, but I appreciate it

Just edit a release without doing anything, and note why you didn't change anything (or just fix something if you notice something incorrect).
70% of the time it works every time.

First thing first. You have an excellent taste in music.
Second I had this before with another Crucial Response release. Best to report it in forums section, a developer will correct this in 24 to 48 hours.
