Three in a row.

How about a thread for three songs in a row on an album that work perfectly.
Could also include three singles in a row by an artist that are great.
I'm sure we can also think of other relevant musical triplets.
I'd like to set the ball rolling with, from the album "Surf's up" by the beach boys:-
1/ A day in the life of a tree.
2/ Til I die.
3/ Surf's up.
To me a little bit of perfection.

Singles in a Row by Crowded House that are all excellent.
Weather with you.
Four seasons in one day.
Distant Sun. 

Personally I'd probably rate Bowie, in this context it'd probably be Singles from the Mid 70's.  I'd have to study the album track listings but Roxy Music could surely do Three in a Row on a couple of albums.
Any three tracks or singles in a row from the Spice Girls work perfectly, assuming they were trying to give people a Perfect sense of WTF!

Down on the Street
Loose
T.V. Eye
Dirt
1970
Fun House

Only the godawful racket - think “Explosion in a musical instrument shop while Iggy fights a leopard in the toilets” - that is “L.A. Blues” prevents The Stooges' Fun House from hitting seven out of seven
