Can't join tracks when importing CD on Mac

When inserting a CD in my Mac, I can no longer "Join Tracks" Running 26.1, the arrow is in the right spot, it's just not showing the join tracks any more... any reason? (Yes, restarted, etc etc) Thanks!

I've spoken with Apple Support.. no answers other than reinstall the OS (that won't do anything), but I have resorted to dragging out my old MacBook Pro, using that to rip a cd that needs a "joining", and a flash drive to move it over... They really don't care about the iTunes app anymore

I am having the same issue. It appears it was removed in Mac Tahoe.

I merge my classical music tracks together so that a single composition is a single track. Why in the world would Apple eliminate this feature after having it present for years?

I hope this is just a temporary situation and it will return in 26.2.

When inserting an old disc that I had tracks joined, it shows the joining, but still no option for joining new tracks
