View ALL MUSIC, sorted by album, in a single list

I am new to spotify (listening mostly on Mac desktop) and was hoping someone could help with a feature I'm missing.  I like to listen to music by albums.  In the past I have sometimes bought single songs, but I tend to organise them into short (10-20 song) playlists of similar songs that I rename as "albums" in iTunes.  This is nice because in iTunes, I can see my album collection plus my mixed "albums" all in one list.  Switching to Spotify now, I'm not sure how to accomplish the same thing - I can make short playlists of individual songs, but is there a way to get those playlists into a single list along with the albums?  To make it even more complicated, I own some obscure albums that are not on Spotify, and am playing them as "Local Files" - it'd be great to get them into the same list too.

After some futzing around I figured out a reasonable way to do this.  I made every album (real albums and my own mixed "albums") into its own playlist, which I can sort and organize any way I want.  Since that means I now have quite a lot of playlists, I organized them into folders to make it easier to go through them.  

As a bonus, this solution gets around the obnoxious 10,000 song limit on saved albums, which I'm likely to hit reasonably soon since I've already saved almost 2,000 songs in my first 5 days on Spotify.
