I don't have a lot of songs on my phone, because generalluy I use a dedicated mp3 player. However, I have 2 songs from Jim Croce's Photographs & Memories album on the phone. I go into Winamp, touch albums, and the only listing for Jim Croce is Photographs & Memories. When I touch that, then the two songs appear.
In your case, ASSUMING that the files are tagged properly, I would expect to see the 12 albums listed if you touch albums.
Further, if I enter Winamp, touch artists, then touch Jim Croce, it shows the single album. If I touch Beatles, it shows two albums.
I must admit that over the years I have spent a LOT of time fine tuning the tags in my mp3s. MP3Tag (PC freeware) has been my best friend at times.
