Alas, no. [livejournal.com profile] mnemex talked me through a number of steps.

I did a search on "elvish" as part of a file name, this being part of the title of one of the songs, "Elvish Lullaby". I searched the C: drive, and I found only the WMA file from 2006, back when I used the Rio as my listening device.

mnemex had me open iTunes and click on the song in question. It insisted that it was in a folder named The Starlit Jewel, in the subfolder for the group Broceliande that had the diacritical mark over the i. In fact, because of the confusion about where and whether I had the CD ripped by iTunes, I had 2 copies, one from December 2008, and one from April 2009.

But, when I opened Windows Explorer on its own, it insisted that I did not have the Starlit Jewel folder. And then, when I clicked on the song in iTunes, it now insisted that no such folder existed. I am baffled.

I understand about the different artists methhod of categorizing, having come across it on various convention CDs, but evidence suggests that this isn't what's going on here.
