I don't use iPod, but I found this on Google and thought I'd throw it out there just in case it helps:

"Make sure that all tracks in an album have consistent tag information in *every* field, otherwise iTunes considers the song to belong to a different version of the same album.

Look at these fields in particular and make sure they are the same for each track in the album:
- Compilation checkbox (Easy to miss!)
- Album artist (might be set to Various Artists if you got the track off of a compilation)
- Track number, Disc number and Year

The easiest way to fix is to multi-select the whole album, right-click Get Info, then correct all at once.

You can see if everything is right in iTunes before transferring to iPod.
Change to the Cover Flow view; if iTunes shows two of the same cover for what should be one album, then some tracks still have inconsistent tags."
