- Post subject: Best three-album run?
|
As per the last few comments on the EVOL thread, what are the best three consecutive albums that a band/artist has released? For me it's gotta be Talk Talk's last three (Colour Of Spring, Spirit Of Eden, Laughing Stock).

Talk Talk is a good call.
Supertramp and The Kinks have each put out four incredible albums one after the other, so they both have two awesome three-album streaks
The others I can think of atm are principally Ramones (their first three are flawless), Antony (though one of them stands miles above the other two), The National (from Alligator to High Violet, for me), The Replacements (though Pleased To Meet You is nowhere as brilliant as the previous two), Mobb Deep (starting with The Infamous obvs), the Stones (ending with Exile).
Also, inb4 Mercury says Vampire Weekend, purple says Joanna, nezzle says Ghostface, Norman says Nick Drake and revolver says Holter.

Tago Mago into Ege Bamyasi into Future Days. Objectively the best.

So many to list...
Love: any of the first 4.
You can pretty much pick any 3 from The Beatles.
Pink Floyd: from The Dark Side Of The Moon to The Wall.
The Jam: from All Mod Cons to Sound Affects.
The Who: from The Who Sell Out to Quadrophenia.
The Clash: from The Clash to London Calling. _________________ "And can’t you see you’re in on it?

I agree with many of yours.
I would say any of the first four by King Crimson.

This has to be one of the best.
Hey, maybe someone can make a poll on this... _________________ "And can’t you see you’re in on it?

That's 4 It rivals the Velvet Underground's 4-run streak too.
Radiohead, Arcade Fire, The Beatles, Nick Drake, Talk Talk..etc.. Too hard to choose. _________________ Submit Your List for BEA's 2023 Film Poll!
