Script of the Day: Artist to Last-First

Artist to Last-First will parse the text of the chosen tag (Artist, Album Artist, Composer or one of their Sort siblings) of a selection of tracks:

Move the LAST word of the tag to the beginning, eg:

  • Hound Dog Taylor -> Taylor, Hound Dog

    • OR Move the FIRST word of the tag to the end, eg:

  • The Crystal Method -> Crystal Method, The

    • Then, the newly configured text can be copied back to your choice of Artist, Album Artist, Composer, Sort Artist, Sort Album Artist and/or Sort Composer tag(s).

    More information and download is on this page.
