Reversing Surname and Forename in song titles

[Steve Bannister]

I have some large folders with a mixture of file name formats, and I would like them all to look the same. For example,

Beatles, The - Help (Group Name, The - Title)
Dave Clark Five - Glad All Over (Group Name - Title)
Beck, Jeff - Hi Ho Silver Lining (Artist Surname, Forename - Title)

I want to target ONLY the Artist names with the forename and surname reversed, as in 'Beck, Jeff', reversing surname and forename and removing the comma but not changing anything of the other two formats. I'm sure there is a RegEx fix that can target the ', ' part and work with it, but I don't want it to affect the formats like the first example that contain ', The'. In all instances, the ' - ' separator and the Title should remain in place. So, the above examples would then read,

Beatles, The - Help (Group Name, The - Title)
Dave Clark Five - Glad All Over (Group Name - Title)
Jeff Beck - Hi Ho Silver Lining (Artist Forename & Surname - Title)

Is this possible?

Hi, I think you could set up criteria to switch file names around the first comma, but then you would need to manually select the files you want to rename, as BRU would not know when to switch or not...

Yes, I don't mind selecting manually if someone can help with the criteria.

Many thanks.

Rename

'FROM: Beck, Jeff - Hi Ho Silver Lining (Artist Surname, Forename - Title)
TO: Jeff Beck - Hi Ho Silver Lining (Artist Forename & Surname - Title)

We can do it with RegEx (1)
Enable Simple in RegEx (1)

We need to identify 3 parts of the file name: <text>, <text> - <text>

So

Match: %1, %2 - %3

And switch first and second part.

Replace: %2 %1 - %3

Preview to make sure is what you need.

That works perfectly, thank you so much. I really appreciate your help.
