Random albums in MediaMonkey?

Can I randomize a MediaMonkey playlist by album rather than by track?
I'm a bit of a movie soundtrack nerd, and when I write I have a fairly long playlist of the soundtracks I listen to regularly. Right now, the playlist is basically alphabetical, as I created it by going through the Albums category in the library and adding each album as I came to it. What I'd like to do is randomize the list now that I have it. I know that MediaMonkey can randomize a playlist, but it does so by track, and that won't work for me. What I want is to keep each album together, but randomize the order in which the albums play.

I don't use MediaMonkey so can't be sure, but maybe there's a way to make a playlist (of each Album / Soundtrack in order), and have it select one of those at random? It seems others had a similar idea in this thread. Hopefully something there will help.
