You don't want a *row*span but a colspan.
<tr>
<td colspan="2" class="atitle">EBB TIDE</td>
<td class="wks1">Jan 02</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="artist">Bobby Freeman</td>
<td class="label">Josie 872</td>
<td class="wks2" colspan="2">11</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="artist">Roy Hamilton</td>
<td class="label">Epic 9068</td>
</tr>

You need to scale up to the lowest common multiple. Something like this:
<tr>
<td colspan="3">1</td>
<td colspan="3">3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">4</td>
<td colspan="2">5</td>
<td colspan="2">6</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">7</td>
<td colspan="2">8</td>
<td colspan="2" style="visibility: hidden">9</td>
</tr>
