Partial music Albums

I have a few albums I have purchased in the past that didn’t fully transfer to my new phone. When I look them up in iTunes it doesn’t say purchased, but lists the full album price. I purchased the album under the same Apple ID so why is the complete album not on my phone?

Can’t find a purchased album. I purchased an album, however it doesn’t show up on my music app or under ‘’purchased” on the itunes store. When I search for the album it displays that I have already purchased it, but I cannot download it. How can I fix this and download the album on my phone? note: The album appears on the device I originally bought it on, but not on another device of mine under the same apple id, (all other albums have downloaded onto the new phone, it’s just one particular album that didn’t)

Getting my Purchased Music Without a Subscription I purchased several single songs and full albums on iTunes many years ago. After having them replay often, I removed some from my phone library for a temporary time. I'm trying to redownload my songs and albums. I can see them in my purchase history, open the album, and play the songs from the purchase screen in iTunes store, however, if I view the album I already purchased from my Music app it will not play for me. It only pops up an ad for subscribing to Apple Music to play all their songs for their subscription fee. In the iTunes store view, there is no download option for me either. Just says 'PURCHASED' and I can tap on the song and it will play. How do I get my music I already purchased BACK?
