How do i fix this sorting problem in iTunes?

I'm pretty good with iTunes, but this problem still baffles me...

I ripped a CD to my iTunes account. I later ripped additional tracks from a CD-R and labeled them so that they would appear as bonus songs on the original album. I made sure that all the fields are the same; artist, album artist, album, grouping, composer, genre, year, disc number, artwork, and not marked as a compilation. The only thing that's different is the song title and track number, yet the bonus songs still appear as a separate album in iTunes. I tried adding a sort field but that didn't do anything. Any ideas?

Sorry, I'm a bit of an iTunes perfectionist.

Update:

Thanks, but unfortunately I already took care of the track numbers. I made it so they all said _ of 15 and then ordered them accordingly. Yeah, this one is tricky.

    your track number is the problem. for example it usally says like 1 out of 12 then 2 out of 12 and so on and so on. now when you add the new songs your going to have to change all songs to 1 out 13 or 14 or how many total songs you have for the album and when you get to the new songs put them as 13 and 14 out of 14. hopefully this makes since. you can also change the order of the songs in which they appear by rearranging the numbers for example number 3 out of 12 can be number 1 out of 12 to make it first on the list. hope this helps and makes since.
