Navigation problems in Music 1.6.6.5 Album View

Running Tahoe 26.7.1, Music 1.6.6.5. Navigation is not working In Albums and Recently Added views.

If I click to view an album, I see the album content but now back arrow. There is no way to go back to the view where I was when I clicked the album. There used to be an obvious back arrow but it is gone in the latest version of Tahoe/Music. Is there any way to restore this arrow or return to the previous view in music.

Note: clicking on the sidebar in Music navigates back to the default view. So if you are looking at an album in the Ys (Yes) and click on the sidebar, you end up in the A albums and have to scroll all the way to Y to be back where you were

You're not the only one. vincent.nicoll posted the same missing back arrow in Recently Added on a Mac mini two days ago, so it looks like this Music build rather than your setup. Worth sending to apple.com/feedback/apple-music with your Music version so it gets counted. Until then, typing the album name into the search field gets you back to it faster than scrolling down to Y.

If you'd rather have it now, Katalog runs alongside the Music app and its album grid has a back button (Esc works too) that drops you back exactly where you left off. I built it, so grain of salt.

Thanks for the reply. I had searched for other people having this problem but my searches did not identify Vincent.

This problem does not seem to occur with Music 1.7.0 running under Golden Gate 27.0 (my testing computer).
