Why are my purchased songs missing from iTunes?

Years ago, I purchased the “True Sadness” album by the Avett brothers and had no issues with it.


I wanted to listen to it again recently, but found that the first track “ain’t no man” was missing (first pic).



I went to my purchases to restore that song, but in my purchases menu, the first song is wrong (second pic).



I then realized that I’m actually missing more than one song. See full expected album track list in pic 3.


How can I get back those tracks without purchasing the album again?


additional clarification: I can see the album in my list of purchases, but when I go to the iTunes Store page for the album, it shows as though none of the songs have been purchased.

This comment on a similar Reddit post gave me the solution. I suppose I accidentally hid those songs in the past. Just had to make them appear again. In my account settings. See Reddit comment linked below for full solution.
