The same output is with play-track and play-artist, 'Missing record field tracks' and 'Missing record field artists' respectively. Remaining commands working.

Thanks for the report, it turns out spotify have blocked unauthenticated access to the metadata API:

I'll have to add authentication support to the underlying library, and sadly these commands are going to be broken until I've done that.
