AlbumArtist = Paul Simon
AlbumArtistSort = Simon, Paul
Artist = Paul Simon; Lady Black Mambazoo
ArtistSort = Simon, Paul; Lady Black Mambazoo
Composer = Paul Simon
ComposerSort = Simom, Paul
AlbumTitle = Graceland
AlbumTitleSort = Graceland

This particular example is open to intepretation. When I look at the sleeve notes at https://www.discogs.com/Paul-Simon-Grace...ster/55658 it seems that whilst Joseph Shabala of Lady Black Mambazoo has a writing credit for this track, Ladysmith Black Mambazoo itself has only a vocal credit, and this is of no higher precedence thane the credits given for Bass, Drums or Trumpet. So personally I would not have Lady Black Mambazoo added to the track artist field just a performers field. I may possibly add Joseph Shabala to the track artist but probably not. After all many Pop albums have tracks written by a team of people but you would expect only the Pop Artist themselves to be listed.

yes, it can. It has IF...THEN...ELSE logic.

The difficultly is what to put in the IF section, how do you know if it is a classical release ?
