Does the Random Album Radio playlist draw from compilations, soundtracks and ‘Various Artist’ albums? If not, is there a workaround for this?

Random Album Radio grabs from _all_ albums.

Artist radio grabs from that artist’s main albums.

Your question is a bit confusing with the title…

Sorry, yes meant random Album Radio. Thanks! Must have just been unlucky today, played 5 albums and only got full artist albums. Thanks for a swift reply.

PS, great video via the pro week Elan! Really interesting stuff.
