Is there a way for the iPhone to skip certain albums on ‘shuffle all?’

I have a variety of albums on my iPhone, which range from artist albums to DJ album mixes. What I would like to know is there a way you can skip albums in the shuffle all option? For example, I have DJ mix albums where each track is a separate file, so when I ‘shuffle all’ I get a small cut of the mix. I’d rather not have that and it only play complete songs. Apart from making a playlist and adding all songs bar the DJ mix ones to it, is there a way of certain songs being ignored? I know that iTunes you have the option to ‘skip when shuffling’ but even if you check that box then transfer them to the iPhone they still end up in shuffle?

iPhone SE, iOS 9.3.1

From my usage Shuffle All is just that, all music or all inside an album is shuffled. Specific selections cannot be shuffled, sorry.
