Album Module: Is there a way to have album open up to several sub-albums?

As you can see in the above link, I have several albums listed on this page.  I need to put the last 9 albums (Bedrooms & Closets - Trim) inside a main album.  In other words, I'd like to click on an album called "Interior Finish Details" that opens up to these 9 albums (Bedrooms - Trim).

I've searched for a way to do this and I can't find it.  I've tried putting these 9 albums into a category and then adding 'categories=1' to this {cms_module module='album' albums='19,20,21,22,23,24,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36'} and it doesn't work.

Thanks for any ideas.

It's been awhile since I've worked with Albums so I can't say for sure, but I don't think the hierarchy setup you are discussing is available in Albums.

Please remember that the Albums module hasn't had a release in over 2.5 years or even a commit to SVN in ~2 years.

I suggest checking out the Gallery module, I think it will allow you to do what you want.
If all else fails, use a bigger hammer.
