Best 3 song run on an album?

[TheRover]

Beatles-Rubber Soul

Nowhere Man
Think For Yourself
The Word

now that I think about it/listen to them again, the first three might be better

[Snafu'd]

Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense Special Edition

Girlfriend is Better
Take Me to the River
Cross-eyed and Painless

I don't know, this album could be one of those where you can pick any song and have a great 3 song run.

dark side of the moon

great gig in the sky
money
us and them


a saucerful of secret

let there be more light
remember a day
set the controls for the heart of the sun

also i like the sublime, the who, and zeppelin lineups people gave

Pulp's Different Class has Common People followed by I Spy and then Disco 2000. That's a pretty amazing run of songs.

These were the exact three I thought of before I even opened this thread.

Failing that, first three songs off Flaming Lips' Soft Bulletin aren't half bad:

Race for the prize
A spoonful weighs a ton
The spark that bled

1. Heartbreaker
2. Livin Lovin Mad
3. Ramble On

[/ QUOTE ]
Whole Lotta Love
What is and What Should Never Be
The Lemon Song

I think this is better, I really don't like Livin Lovin Maid (she's just a woman).

I think Abbey Road is number 1. Zepplin IV Probably number 2. I'm surprised no one has yet mentioned:

Purple Haze
Manic depression
Hey Joe

From 'Are you experienced?'

This is the new winner imo.

YES, YES, YES

I offered the same suggestion in an identical thread on another forum, and it's obviously correct.

Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revivisited

-Like a Rolling Stone
-Tombstone Blues
-It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry

Another good one.

If 4 songs were allowed, this would be the winner:

Bob Dylan - Blonde on Blonde

- Visions of Johanna
- One of Us Must Know
- I Want You
- Stuck Inside of Mobile With the Memphis Blues Again

Scratch that, any of those 3 songs is in contention for winning.

The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses

1. I wanna be adored.
2. She bangs the drums.
3. Waterfall.
