Play full albums within randomized playlist

[Tuzlin]

Hi, premium user here. Sorry if this has already been answered, but I couldn't find anything similar in search.

Among other things, we use Spotify for our kids, playing music and stories when they are put to sleep at night.

Playing random songs from a playlist is a no-brainer, but I have some trouble making a random playlist with multiple stories that span more than one track. Right now it just jumbles the chapters/part of the different stories.

In essence: Is there a way to make playlists of full albums, where random play finishes an entire multi-track album before jumping to the next (random) album?

It would be nice to have a playlist of Story A, chapter 1, 2, 3 ... and Story B, chapter 1, 2, 3 and so on, where random play would play e.g. Story D, then Story A, then story C - giving different stories each night.

Thanks in advance
