Home cookin' flac files...questions

If I want to create a "Stevie's 80's hits" album from flac files, can I simply copy & paste songs from various artists into a folder I create? Will it play correctly? I never tried it.
Would I need to do some tag editing to correctly rename "album" "track number" etc for each song; or am I over-simplifying?

You would need to make a playlist with whatever software you use to play those FLAC files back.
For example; if you use Media Monkey to play your files, then you would need to create the playlist in Media Monkey.
If you use Sonos, then it would need to be created with the Sonos software.
Not sure if the Oppo gives that option.

You can only create it within the software of the player you are using to playback said files.

on a brand new USB thumb drive using a simple Windows 10 laptop.
I dragged 5 files into a folder I labeled DEMO, (two MP3s, 2 .flac, 1 WAV) and popped the drive into the front USB port on my 103. It recognized the folder on the drive, and played the songs in the order I copied them to the drive. I did not assign any numbers
or special tags, and even rearranged the songs back on my laptop, and it played them in their new specific order. AFAIK you can't change the order within the Oppo menu at all.
In other words, basically what @StantonZ did but without adding numbers?

Basically like making a mixed cassette tape concept. The Oppo has a playlist function, but I have never used it.

I wasn't sure if that was the case, that's why I removed the drive back to my laptop and deleted all 5 songs, then copied them back in a different order. The 103
played them in the order they were copied again. Only thing is, I don't believe adding a number will have any effect on how the 103 "sees" the file list. Back to the drawing board...
I think @txcoastal1 is correct, if you assign numbers to the songs you've added and sort them before you copy them to your device, the 103 will simply play them as they appear.
