It would be legal to link the album unless you had reason to know that the album was uploaded without permission of the copyright owners, making it a copyright infringement, and your link would be a "contributory infringement".

Similarly, if I know you have a pretty house, it is legal for me to tell people your address, but not legal for me to tell people where you hide your spare key and suggest they show themselves in.
