Why won't my link navigate to the page that I want upon clicking it?

In Chrome, I must manually type http://127.0.0.1:8000/music/1/ in order to get to the page that I want. (I want to go to page 1).

However, When I try to click the link that I thought would take me to where I want in http://127.0.0.1:8000/music, for example, Red. It takes me to that error page:

enter image description hereenter image description here

Here's my views.py:

from django.http import HttpResponse
from django.shortcuts import loader
from .models import Album

def index(request):
    all_albums = Album.objects.all()
    template = loader.get_template('music/index.html')
    context = {
        'all_albums': all_albums,
    }
    return HttpResponse(template.render(context, request))

def detail(request, album_id):
    return HttpResponse("<h2>Details for album id: " + str(album_id) + "</h2>")

Here's my urls.py

from django.conf.urls import url
from . import views

urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^$', views.index, name = 'index'),

    url(r'^(?P<album_id>[0-9]+)/$', views.detail, name = 'detail'),
]

Here's my `index.html

    {% if all_albums %} <!-- Will be true as long as it has at least 1 album -->
    <h3>Here are all my albums</h3>
<ul>
    {% for album in all_albums %}
    <li><a href="/music/id/{{ album.id }}">{{ album.album_title }}</a></li>
    {%  endfor %}
</ul>
{% else %}
    <h3>You don't have any albums</h3>
{% endif %}

There's an error in the template. Instead of /music/id/{{ album.id }} you should have /music/{{ album.id }}/. When you hit the link Red it redirects you to music/id/1 instead of music/1. So you get a 404 error.
