Both fail for the same reason:

# youtube-dl https://vimeo.com/album/3630584 --video-password [xxx] -v

The problems I've discovered:

1. VimeoAlbumIE returns links in vimeo.com/{id} format, while vimeo servers seem to only respond to vimeo.com/album/{album_id}/video/{id} requests in this scenario.
2. vimeo.com/album/{album_id}/video/{id} links are not supported neither by VimeoIE nor VimeoAlbumIE properly.

(Sorry, I can't share the password.)

You have to provide all necessary data to reproduce this issue or suggest any other way to do so.

It's been working in your test case because the video itself is not private (https://vimeo.com/119195465).

I've uploaded a video to demonstrate this issue. It's set to "Only me" in privacy settings and it's only available through this album: https://vimeo.com/album/3717291 (password: youtube-dl).
