How do you view albums on iPhone by list instead of scrolling thru albums?

I've got bands with lots of albums and live shows-anyone know how to view them by list where you don't have to scroll through all of the albums by the artist?

The removal of that capability is one of the biggest complaints people have with the Music app in iOS 7 and later. Judging by their refusal to fix it, Apple really does appear to believe they have a good design. At least they fixed the shuffle button that appears next to each album to shuffle just that album; in the first iOS 7 release, it shuffled all the songs on all the artist's albums, despite there being a shuffle button at the top of the list that does the same thing. However, the bastards still can't be bothered to add a play button next to the per-album shuffle buttons, so that you can directly play just the one album instead of an implicit playlist of all the albums below it. They can't be bothered to add sorting options, either.

There are several 3rd party music apps you can buy, but they're all slow as shite with large music collections when they first start up or are reloaded, a frequent occurrence on my 64 GB iPod Touch. I gave up on them and suffer with the Apple app. I'm baffled every day wondering what they were thinking, and I'd like to compel Jony Ive to make one of his pretentious videos to explain and justify the design after watching people struggle with the thing.
